I’m tapering my prednisone and at 2 1/2mg til 1/5/2024 and can stop. My memory has been affected during this period from April until now, hair loss is in overtime and I can’t grow it on my head but can shave my upper lip and chin twice a day. I’m a 74 year old female and my last dose of prednisone will call for a celebration. I’m on high doses of Vitamin B12 right now and just had a CT scan for my kidneys due to urinalysis test. So prednisone fixed me from the crippling pain I had but the side effects were overwhelming so I’m optimistic 2024 being days away has got to be a better year.
