@priscillat, were you able to speak with your doctor about increasing the prednisone dosage? How are you today?

I should have come back to report: that a mild case of COVID caused a flare. My CRP had more than tripled - so my dr upped my prednisone to 10mg for 2 weeks. Then I’ve begun an even slower taper: .5 mg every 2 months. She told me a slower taper reduced chances of a flare. I’ve been fine ever since. A little sad to be on prednisone another 3 years, though.
