                        Hi Ida,    Way to go on getting down to 5mg, Ida!  Wow!  That's great!  Give it a little time and your symptoms will level off.  It's amazing how Prednisone can give us so many aches and pains when we taper it.    I am feeling very tired now on the 10.5mg, but that's no suprise.  I will stay at this dose for 2 weeks, if all is going well.  I am eager to taper some more, but afraid of a setback, so I will take my time.    I have to wear the hard cast on my foot and lower leg for another 3 weeks, and then go into a walking cast for another couple of weeks.  I am pleased that my foot is healing.    It is so good to hear from you, Ida.  Keep up the good work on your taper!    Take good care and post soon!    Shar
