Over the past few days, I have been feeling pretty groggy and simply going down hill a bit. Increased ‘bathroom’ activity, foul uncontrollable gas and just feeling generally unwell.

I’ve been tapering down from 40mg of Prednisone each week, I had managed to get to 25mg.

I called up the IBD Nurses today, she contacted my specialist and I have to go back up to 30mg for another week, then taper again. Pretty standard, this did happen last time.. I popped an extra 5mg pill as you do, been feeling off my box ever since! Ping, ping, ping! 💊

She has also increased my Mercaptopurine (6MP), I was on a mere 50mg last week, this went up to 75mg after my appointment with the specialist on Thursday. Today, bang, up to 100mg!

So I am literally up, up and away! Take two, three or is it four.

I WILL conquer this! 💪🏻
