I was on 60mg for about 1 year. My neuro-muscular Dr said I needed to get off Prednisone because I could barely walk. So we started reducing and the strength came back to my legs. I am down to 15mg but when I went below 20mg I started getting weaker. I am on a every day schedule. Dropping 2 1/2 every 6 weeks. I am so weak we have started IVIG again but it is not helping.
