I don't know where you live, but the way most
doctors work is that there is ALWAYS a doctor on
call, even when they are out of town.
Why don't you call your doctor's office and speak
to another doctor. Get some more Prednisone!If the Prednisone
worked for you without ill effects, you could
probably go on another regime.
Last time I was on Prednisone, my dosage was as
follows: 60 mg for 5 days, 50 for 5 days, etc.,
down to 20, 19, 18, 17, etc. There is no need for
you to suffer if the Prednisone worked! In addition,
if you have headaches that "break through," even
with the Prednisone, you can rent an oxygen tank,
with a prescription, at a medical supply house.
Get a face mask, and inhale at 8 liters per minute
at the first sign of a headache.
