It has been a short while only, but I'm exhausted. Dr. Lowery said it would take some time for my adrenal glands to kick in and do their thing. Each time I lowered the dose of prednisone, I was fatigued...well, Dr. L said it was due to the tapering. I just think it's life with Polymyositis. Taking that last dose of Prednisone, though...wow. I've been more than a little tired. And nauseous. And itching all over (that's about to drive me crazy). I didn't make it to the gym to do my exercises last week...the thought of it was too overwhelming. This week, I work two days then have two days of IVIg infusions. Maybe that will help get a bit of energy back.
No loss of muscle strength that I've noticed though. That's a good thing.
