I so appreciate your response. I do hope you stay well and get off prednisone without too much trouble.
I am hoping the option on Naltrexone will work for me if it comes to that.
Again, thank you.

I have been taking low-dose naltrexone since February, in the hope that it will help me cut down the prednisone. So far, it has not done that, but for many patients LDN takes 6 months to a year to make a difference (and for some, it never works). Meanwhile, my neuropathy and sciatica have disappeared, and I feel optimistic, so I'm a big fan of LDN. Unlike MTX, LDN will not hurt you.
