Appreciate that dosage posting as I am in my 5th day @80mg and now must taper: query if your 35(?) day course is due to the extent of your CH - mine may be milder, however as I have been CH free for 3 DAYS the threat of the monster returning as an improved version due to an expedited taper is unclear.
I was going to taper @60 for 2 days/40 for 2dys/20 for one etc to 5 mg , BUT, I hear your real life experience Lee and pause in confusion.
Any comments as to the right taper dosage of Prednisone or is it like all the meds 0 different strokes for different folks.
Have those who have tapered over say 7 days suffered?
Pain free.
