Guest guest Posted December 17, 2002 Report Share Posted December 17, 2002 Dear Lorie, I'm sorry you are having so much pain. You can definitely have more pain as you decrease the prednisone. You may need to slow down the weaning process. A couple of months ago I felt like I was in a major flare (lots of pain, renewed stiffness and swelling, low fevers) -- and was sicker than I had been in a long time. This was while i was weaning down on the my prednisone dose. The doctor told me you can get many pains -- even in your muscles and places where you never had them before. And, he slowed down the weaning process. Now I am on a slower weaning process and it has made a big difference. You may want to talk to your doctor! Feel free to email me if you have any questions!
