@flymetothemoon I'm not sure what your doctor means since treating PMR is treating the symptoms. That's why schedules and formulas don't work. What may work for one doesn't work for another. So we pay attention to our symptoms and treat accordingly.
Hope your taper works well. 1/2 mg. seems like a dream to me.

What she means is as long as blood tests are normal her goal is to get me off the steroids. Of course regardless of blood tests if pain becomes unbearable I will have no choice, however for now it’s not. The Celebrex is helping. The steroids cause other issues for me due to type 2 diabetes and osteoporosis.
