I was put on an oral course of Pred to taper down last Friday. I started Friday night on 400 mg oral and have the schedule of 2 x 400 mg, 2 x 300 mg, 2 x 200 mg, 2 x 100 mg (where I am now, 1st day on 100), and 1 x 50 mg.
All of a sudden this afternoon, I am so exhausted I can barely stay away (which is a blessing since I haven't really slept more than 3 hours since Thursday night). Has anyone suddenly felt so crappy on the taper? I've been tired but generally feeling great this time! ON seems to be clearing itself up, pain is almost gone, but now I'm exhausted with a headache and eyes are sensitive to light again.
Could this be from the steroid taper?
