My 55 year old son had Immunotherapy treatment for melanoma. Prior to that had some lesions surgically removed. Since treatment has had periodic scans that show no signs of recurrence. Now dealing with side-effects issues trying to get steroid meds (prednisone) tapered off. Is there a group a folks dealing with these endocrinology issues?

Thank you Dad
I'm still trying to figure out how to wean off the Prednisone.Took a replacement dose for 3 years.
Now cutting back to less than my body needs but have no way to know whether my system is a coming back on-line and start in to produce what it needs. Sometimes I skip a dose in the morning and feel ok for awhile.
Primary doc says alternate doses. Endo says cut last dose of day in half. Internet forum suggested skipping morning dose. Wanting to find other patients who have been able to wean off steriods and whose HPA axis normalized.
