Prednisone withdrawl | Arthritis Information

ive had a nasty migrane type headache, since yesterday afternoon

my mom sayd its probably pred withdrawl, since we lowered from 25mg to 20 mg
and i dont take any at night anymore
if thats the case, this sux
 
if not, i wonder whats causing it
 
ive been taking tylenol since yesterday night'
and it doesnt help at all, i get more in a half hour
 
funny thing, when i took my pred this morning
'the headache went away for a little while
 
just think...after the headache goes away
we get to reduce pred again, in 3 weeks
from 20 mg to 15 mg
 
what fun! thnx milly, actually my headache went away after i took a shower (weird)
so im thinking im ok for now, just gonna have to do it again, in 3 weeks
 
but, i should be happy, the prednisone isnt such a nice thing and i did want to get rid of it, ASAP, but it surely hurts.
 
this guy i know, who's 23, i think...he sayd that happens when u take strong meds and have to stop, he sayd it happened when he had to stop his antidepressants adruptly...
 
im glad it went away, its been a weird and painful day
didnt get much sleep last night cuz of it
 
goodnight everyone!!!
 
P.S. milly, i hope u feel better; i think u sayd u had the flu? so, get well soon!!!
 
edited to say: thnx wanttobe too
