@queenie2030, I agree with @sashakay that it is a difficult decision. I can only defer back to what my rheumatologist told me the first time around with PMR when I thought I would never get off of predinisone. He told me to listen to my body and keep a daily pain log then don't taper down unless your pain level is at some level you are OK with. For me, that was a 1 or 2 on a scale of 10 being the highest. I also think@sashakay makes a great point about watching what you eat and reducing or eliminating the ones that are inflammatory. Here's some information that might help:
