I missed an episode this week, and there was a very good reason. My fifth attempt to come off prednisone after twenty years hit me harder than I ever expected. With methotrexate now being used as a steroid-sparing medication, I’ve managed to reach just 2.5 milligrams of prednisone, but the pain, nausea, edema and crushing fatigue have been brutal. I’m sharing what happened when I became so exhausted at work that even standing at the stove no longer felt safe, and why I finally chose myself first.
