Hi Cait,
I think the tapering scheme you follow is too rapid, didnīt you say your problems started when you changed to 25 mg every day from 30 every day? And now, you are on 30 every other day...!
Normally one should try something between the last levels (30 was ok and 25 was not), thus 27.5 by taking one day 30mg and the following day 25 until you get stabilized. After that, 30 mg one day and 20 the following day, and so on...
I donīt understand how neuros prescribe such high weaning off rate for people who have been on Pred for several months and at rather high doses...
Good luck to you!
Maurice.
