Subject: Last Drop

I did my last drop today, down to 7 mg of prednisone. I am relived that I won't have to deal with this again...but of course that is just me saying I am NOT dropping anymore...I am pretty sure my docs will not agree with me. That is where my worry comes in. I am concerned that my rheumatologist will want me to bump up on my 6-mp (I am now at 50 mg, but could go to 75 mg with a month of side effects) and then try to start dropping on the pred again. After this last debacle with weaning down to 6 mg of pred, I am SCARED! I know I know...get through this first, then decide, but I can't help trying to plan ahead how my life is going to go. I have hopes, dreams, ambitions, that I have not been able to realize because of being so sick for so long. I will though...hopefully sooner then later.
