Hi!
It’s not!

I have succumb to the prednisone it’s the only thing that keeps the swelling at bay.
It’s been trial and error to figure out how low I can go - I’m down to 5mg a day and - it’s been 3 weeks on that dose with no swelling so far.

Thx for checking in- How are you doing/ feeling?

@lisafabs32 I’m so glad that your facial swelling is down!
As for me, I”m doing OK. I’ve been tapering my prednisone also—tough job! I’m down to 3.75 and working my way down. Isn’t tapering fun??!!
I’m really glad you’re doing better! Did anyone ever determine a cause for the facial swelling?
