Guest guest Posted October 13, 2002 Report Share Posted October 13, 2002 Hi Kathy: Just thought I would drop you a line. I am cutting down on my predisone too so I know what you are going through. It sure is the " pits', isn't it? I have done this before. Three times actually and got down to zero too. However, I couldn't breathe so I had to go back on it. I have Asthma and Atelectasis. However, now I am just cutting down a little. I am going to stay on it, but at 5mg every other day. It is very painful anyway. I have to stay on it because I was on it too long to quit it all together. I was on it 16 years because of my kidney transplant and Asthma. Well, I hope you arn't too uncomfortable. Drop me a line and let me know how you are. Sincerely, Colletti Anjillah@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
