The bottom line is we are all unique and handle medication’s completely differently. I believe that you made a good choice to send your rheumatologist a message certainly can’t hurt. I called my rheumatologist who is out for the week on vacation and the nurse said they will get back to me which they never did but the way things are these days I could expect that !!! I must say that today I’m feeling a lot better than I did yesterday.. I believe that for each of us withdrawal from prednisone is different. my very best wishes to you!!!
