They are trying to taper my pred; lowering me 5mgs a week put when I went from 45mgs to 40 I started to bleed from everywhere. My skin is like paper and bleeds if you just touch it. Is 5mgs a week to fast to come down? I also am having muscle cramps in my feet and calves and cramps in my stomach. For the first time today I felt scared because I didn't know what was happening to me. I just got out of hospital for coma and bladder infection. I think I still have the infection. I have to wait until next Monday to see the WG man. Any advice?
