Chronic Fatigue while tapering Prednisone for PMR

I previously reported here that I was very fatigued for around a month at 8mg. That fatigue has now lifted, so I assume it was just an adjustment to reductions. Now on 7mg, my energy level is fairly good, better than before. Normal activity is now possible again.

Thanks megz. I can concur with your assessment. My intervals of fatigue are always around the time I'm tapering down. They are generally short lived. A week or so after the new dose. Down to 9mg now. 10 months into this PMR was down to 5mg in Sept. when a flare up took me back up. 71 with fairly good energy levels. But less reserve because of the PMR. Ernie
