Hi Beth, I too am on prednisolone while my rituximab kicks in. I had too infusions before Christmas so it's not had any effect yet. I feel good on Prednisolone but I know I can't have it forever and too are on a reducing dose. Just worried my infusion won't work and I'll be in pain again. Hope you get sorted quickly and you get the help you need. There's lots out there to help, its just finding what helps you. Keep safe and take care.

Predizone, i take one a day to reduce swelling. I was on 2 wing off but had to be put back on it.

It took awhile to work for me also. I was on a low dose of prednisone for quite a few months. But it did work. Only bad thing for me was so much hair loss. So I switched to xaljantz few days ago.

I’ve been on 5mg of prednisone for over 20 years. Works for me along with my biological.

I am on methotrexate and also have really bad hair loss. I will ask about Xeljanz.
