Well got to the Eye Doctor yesterday. I have developed a cataract in my right eye. He also noted a small scar on the retina that wasn't noted two years ago. He wants to see me every 6 months now. So...pred has worked that bit of magic for me I spent the evening making blind in one eye and can't see out the other jokes. They have me going to get a retina scan tomorrow to make sure what's up with the scar, he's concerned that it might be causing part of my vision issues.

As a side note after bumping back up to 25mg of pred the headaches are considerably reduced. I think I was being way to aggressive on the taper. Going to slow it to 2.5 every two weeks instead of 5 every week...which was caving my head in Given what you are saying Sangye I think you are correct, it did feel like massive pressure in my head. I feel much better at the resumed 25mg dosage.
