Then it is noticeably raised isn't it. Though I know someone where it was in the low teens and her doctors wouldn't let her reduce the pred any further even though she felt perfectly well. Then one thought maybe it was "her normal" - she is a tall lady and at the time pretty well-built thanks to pred (put on about 6 stone/80lbs without eating more, just pred). She slowly reduced the pred dose, no return of symptoms, and she got off pred about 6 or 7 years ago. I don't know if it has fallen since.
There is a basic rule in PMR/GCA: the symptoms always trump the blood markers. They are only a guide, not gospel.
