Guest guest Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 Woo Hoo! Indeed a cause for celebration. Way to go ! Now that I'm down to 15mg a day my neph gave me a Rx for the 5mg tabs. My daughter looked at them and said " hey baby prednisone! " It's nice to not have to take those monster 20mg ones anymore...hopefully I'll be dropped down to 10 mg at the beginning of May. I go for labs on the 26th and see the neph on the 4th...if all is still looking good we will be weaning me further.
