You are clearly having a very rough time. Is the prednisone not working?

Ha ha -- no please don't worry -- when increased to 30 mg ( not shown ) the enire heat map is green ! But I am tapering now - so might switch to graphing the data like you do !
It is @vellen who started another post about Breakthrough pain -- thank you so much for your concern . ; )

@walkamok I was thinking the same thing.
@nyxygirl taking 30mg, that must have more side effects then? I haven't been pain-free as I was on 15mg to now 12.5mg per day. I will deal with the breakthrough pain though as the other annoying side effects, getting only 5-6 hours sleep, heart pounding after meals and anxiety attacks etc. have lessened quite a bit.
This is so not fun and thanks for the info.
