Yesterday my doctors decided to lower my pred to 20 mg. Last evening I was sitting in my chair and a headache hit... suddenly... along with a stomach ache that bent me over.
I took an Ambien and went bravely to bed. Woke up painfree.
Gratitude for not being in constant pain walks with me everyday. Nothing that Aleve couldn't help. etc.
Is the pain connected to Prednisone?
Dropped from 60mg to 30mg with no apparant side effects??? Except emotional overload.
Am I whining too soon? LOL... or not

You can learn about the ways in which sarcoidosis affects the body in FSR's Sarcoidosis and the Body brochure.
