Stepping down Prednisone

This weekend I start stepping down the prednisone.  I'm very happy about this.  Maybe I will lose the moonpie face.  :)

My steps are:

Current dose is 20mg/day

9 Weeks - 17.5mg
9+6 - 15mg
10+3 - 12.5mg
11+1 - 10mg
12 weeks - 5mg
13 weeks - 5mg EOD
14 weeks - off


So, it's a slow process.

I will also stop the E2V at 12 weeks.  Cannot wait!

Around 12 weeks, I will start weening off the progesterone too.
