Hi Ida, How are you? How is your Prednisone taper going? You mentioned that you are going down to 7mg. That is great! I have just had a backward slide in my progress, since Vioxx has been removed from the market. I was doing well on it along with my other medicines, but my doctor put me on Celebrex, and that is causing problems with fluid retention and it isn't controlling my pain and swelling. I called my doctor this morning and I'm waiting to hear from him. I don't know what he'll have me try next, but I sure and discouraged. I hope you are doing well, Ida. Please post soon. Shar
