You might ask your doctor or rheumatologist to prescribe some 1 mg prednisone tablets to help taper down with less amounts. My first occurrence with PMR I spent the last six months going back and forth between 1 mg and 1/2 mg until I was finally able to stop taking prednisone and not have the bad pain.
