Guest guest Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 I saw a dermatologist for my thinning hair and she said the main culprit was the 5 mgs of prednisone I am taking. She asked me to ask my rheumy about getting off of it. Said that I did ask him years ago and he told me that 5 mgs is not a very high dose at all and he would like me on it. I called him again this week and the nurse called to tell me that Dr V said I've been on the prednisone for too many years and it would almost impossible to get me off of it. How come such a small mg. can be almost impossible to wean off of? Anyway, looks like there is no getting off the pred. Guess I will be wispy haired all my life.
