Ive been on prednisone now for 2 different treatments of lupus flareups. Ive weaned from 60mg to 10mg slowly twice over the last 6 months. Now Im back to 10mg for 2 weeks now and the lupus is back. I cant move from the sofa. The pain and fatigue is overwhelming. DOes anyone else have this problem? Im miserable and having a hard time to be nice to my kids and others. Its not prednisone withdrawl. My lupus headaches are back, my tremors, my cognitive more messed up, my hands are not working, sweats and chills, fevers, sores in mouth, I just wonder if anyone else cant get rid of a lupus flare up. It really takes a toll on ur emotional well being. Im miserable....so much to do and cant move. My doctor just repeats the prednisone dosage and when I see her im on prednisone and feel good. I take plaquenil also for over a year. Thanks
