Headaches and migraines are definitely a part of prednisone withdrawals. If you are concerned about adrenal suppression you should contact your doctor about getting a cortisol and ACTH level. Contact a doc immediately if you have a sudden drop in blood pressure/dizziness as these are more common symptoms of crisis (although some of us get that even with lowering a dose). Try not to stress out too much...stress makes withdrawals much worse!! Also, try to drink as much fluid as possible as it does help to ease the pain of withdrawals.

Let us know if we can be of any help or if you just want to vent! :)
