Subject: Going D O W N...

First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
I saw my Endo yesterday and I have dropped, as of today down to 7.5 mgs of predisone. I am to stay at 7.5 for 2 weeks, then we'll go down by 1 mg for a month at a time. She will test my adrenals once I get to 5 mgs. I am already feeling the effects from the 10 mgs for 2 weeks...I am having a lot of bone pain this time and it's hard to walk at times. I am determined to make it this time. She explained that my adrenals may not wake up or may not work at full capacity and I may have to stay on a maintenance dose of 5 mgs or lower. I hope they wake up! I know I am going to be sick and in pain, but I am trying so hard to get off this stuff, I am so tired of this!

Have a great Turkey Day!

Judy
