Good luck. Prednisone has always scared me, but they have twice put me solumedrol for my MS. I am not sure what the difference is. I keep thinking I should start swimming also.

Swimming is the bomb! I don't know why I didn't try prednisone before now. I really can't tell if it's working much. But my fingers feel great and I've been typing like a wild person for days...
