Has anyone had surgery while still on prednisone?

Scheduled for laparoscopic surgery in August. Haven’t heard back from surgeon with this question so I will reach out to the group. Read. That 5 mg is suggested dosage to be on before surgery. I am on 14mg at moment and don’t see that a possible. Just trying to make a educated decision and as this is not emergency surgery but important I prefer not rescheduling but 5mg seems “painful”

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) Support Group.

Delighted to learn all has gone well for you!
