I have been doing fairly well weening off the ole pred. I have not had much increased pain, but a little more swelling here and there, that seems to go away when I take my 2.5mg of pred before bed.
Yesterday, I woke up with my left hand with morning stiffness, and the stiffness did not seem to go away until mid afternoon. And when hubby got home, my hand still was bothering me.
Today, I woke up with nagging, annoying pain and stiffness in my left fingers/hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder. Plus, it seems to be effecting the left side of my neck now that my shoulder is in non-stop nagging pain.
I am trying to figure out what it could be from. Could it be that we are going to get rain FINALLY? That it is the start of my "monthly bill"? or my body has decided "NO! I will not let you off the pred!"? or could it just be the might gonna rain/start of "monthly bill"?
Not sure, just know I feel like CRAP, tired, want to sleep, and I am in more pain.
