Cofffelover- I was told by my Rhuemy today that she wants me off Prednisone and wants to try to wean me off very slow. She wants to increase my Cellcept because it is less damaging than the prednisone. So I start tomorrow 9mg of prednisone and if I start to show more sinus and ears symptoms then we will be calling the big Guns. I do see my WG specialist up in Cleveland Ohio in June. She thinks that if I am having symptoms then I am flaring(WG). So will have to see what everyone says about it.
So you might need a second opinion. It seem some of the Rhuematoligest are realizing how damaging prednisone is and want find other alternatives to replace the prednisone. I guess will wait and see. Trial and Error!
