After 5 long months, tomorrow is my last dose of prednisone! I have been dropping by 2.5 mg since I went below 20, and this feels like it has taken forever, but I know taking my time was the way to do it. I am so glad to be done with this drug. I haven't had any issues with this taper since I started Imuran so I am hoping it holds. Thanks for all of your support during this flare up. What a crazy ride this disease is.

Thanks! Me too. Today was just fine, but I will be extra vigilant for a while.
