Agree with Sangye (in spite of my own actions). Although they are non descript looking little pills, steroids are dangerous and should be treated with respect. In my own case, I know what I can get away with, but have still only done it on a handfull of occasions. Long term changes are a different matter and I have to move very slowly indeed, reducing from 10mg to 7mg has taken me 3 months!
As Sangye says, get it wrong and the effect can be very rapid. On the odd occasion, I have forgotten to take my pills in the morning and have found myself feeling ill before the end of the day. Not sure if this is due to the steroids, but I think it is. It brings home to me just how dependant I have become.
