I got off prednisone in 2010 and bore the pain and aggravation because my CRP and PR3 were also normal. They slowly rose to a level where my Doctor wanted me back on 5 mg. He also gave me a script for 1mg also so I could also taper as I wanted. Well I went from 5 to 1 and so far so good, the pain I was experiencing again is very manageable. I do wish I could lose the swelling on either side of my neck, even when off pred those glands never went back down to normal. I think I can live with 1mg.
