prednisone and flare duration
hello all:
a couple of quick questions:
my first ever "crohn's" flare has been ongoing now for about 2 months. i have been on prednisone for about a month and a half and they have slowly been dropping my dosage as i feel better and better. after my last drop in dosage some of my symptoms (mainly abdominal pain) returned. i fear they will up my dosage back up to a previous level. is it normal to be on prednisone for this long? How long do flares typically last?
crohn's of the temrinal ileum.
