I was able to get down to 7 mg of prednisone. I do have some pain in my upper arms when sleeping but once I am up and take a hot shower it is not too bad. My doctor started me on methotrexate but I have only taken it for two months so far. I went off it this week since I got my booster shot for Covid. I have been on prednisone for almost a year, I guess that is why he wanted me to get the shot. I also have an autoimmune disease CREST. For the last couple of days I am experiencing wrist pain in both hands. The right hand is the worst since I believe I have carpal tunnel. Hand and fingers numb and hard to bend. Heat seems to help.

Any suggestions?

Thank you so much for this group!!
