My CRP went down within the 1st 3 months of Prednisone. I was diagnosed Feb 2020 by my PCP and started on 15 mg of Prednisone. I did not have any Covid vaccines before being dx. I am now down to 1 mg and do have more pain in hips and some shoulder but am able to manage that with Tylenol so far.

This is my concern. My sed-rate went to normal after starting prednisone but I started it in January and CRP is climbing (13, 18, 23). I started Methotrexate 3 weeks ago and have blood work next week so hoping that helps. This isn’t a COVID question
