Back on Prednisone
Had an appointment with rheumy on Wednesday this week and told her of my on-going mid grade flare I've had going on for several weeks now. Have not had serious pain all the time but mild to moderate all day and night and causing issues sleeping. She was not happy with this and put me back on Prednisone for 2 weeks then tapering off.
I feel really good for the 1st time in quite a while. It is amazing how close to normal I actually feel even if for only a few days. I wish that it were possible to have this full time, but I remember how long term use of prednisone was causing dramatic weight loss and starting to make me act strange.
The drug we love to hate....

Just an update... this has not worked out so well. Medication change ups have caused serious ra issues to resurface as well as put more stress on a very weak heart. Everytime something new comes up all I can say is \"Really?\". Don\'t know where I am going from here but one thing is for sure that there are not a lot of option.
