I am on Day 3 of a 12 day steroid taper, which really means that I am on Day 1 of taking 5 pills. I think they are working, as I don't feel as achy and tired today.
I'm not doing marathons yet. It takes a little while before I start feeling like my old self. The steroids are merely a booster to help me get over this current flare hurdle and get through the first week of classes.
But, it's nice to be on the mend.
About Me
- Seeking Solace
- I am a college professor who is fumbling through the chaos of academia, rheumatoid arthritis, working on my PhD and just being a 40 something woman. I used to be a lawyer, which made me a snarky little person. I have a wonderful Husband and a German Shepherd named Junior. They help keep me sane.

Yay for improvement!
Glad to hear it's working for you! I loved having a few "normal" days during the prednisone weeks. Hope it kicks the inflammation so the other meds work better.
Glad to hear you're feeling better!
