Unsure. My dose is 20mg which alleviates almost all the pain. Just diagnosed 2 weeks ago. Still a little stiffness in upper arms...but otherwise good.

One year later...how are you doing?

Thank you. My soreness with 12.5 mg is getting worse unfortunately. I am still wondering we should be taking enough Prednisone to eliminate 100% of the pain or is it okay to have some stiffness and pain in order to keep the Prednisone mg amount down. Will this approach hurt recovery time or results? I wonder if an expert knows the answer to this. I am going for a second Dr. opinion on 1/31 and will ask.
