Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 , i am trying to do the same thing with the paqunil, and have been off it for a week. 2 days ago i started to drop the prednisone, and i already feel the pain. tried to go from 10mg to 7 1/2 mg. Today i did 9 and don't feel nearly as bad as i did yesterday. i hate prednisone, but everytime i go down i get the pain back. am trying to get all meds out of me- the referal finally came yesterday in the mail. i don't know how long it will take for them to get me in....it says evaluation and biopsy- i will be calling up there tomorrow to see! ps. i had leg cramps to and the doc put me on the calcium magnesium too. no more leg cramps.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 tried to go from 10mg to 7 1/2 mg NO NO NO!!!!!!!!! One mg a month, and when lower .5mg a month. Prednisone is a dangerous drug. Your body needs time to start producting it's own steroids. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 I'm hoping that's true for Dapsone Greetings M I searched the web from beginning to end and cannot find nothing on Dapsone reduction. Maybe you should ask your doctor? Hugs, Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
