This thread is about the flu shot. However, a reduction from 10mg prednisone to 5mg is a heck of a leap - at 10mg the rheumatoligist told me to reduce by 1mg every 2-4 weeks. My schedule is tapering by .5mg every 10-11 days (changeover Sunday or Wednesday), which has been going well.

10 to 5 is a huge reduction, most of the time it’s 1mg each reduction spread out. Just saying.
