Missed dose of Predicted - I think?

Posted , 4 users are following.

Hi All, especially Eileen, you'll know what I should do!

I can't remember for the life of me whether I've taken my pred this morning or not!! I don't want to take it now incase I've already had today's dose! I'm only on 2mg so will it make any difference if I go without it today?

many thanks

    The title should read prednisolone not predicted!

    I'd take another one - preferable to being in discomfort! It won't hurt at that level. Nor will it be a problem going back to 2mg tomorrow.

      Thank you Eileen very very much! I will do that! 

      Thanks for getting back soon!

    I'm at 2and half MG and I remember missing a dose at 5.mg and never noticed it. Your dose miss will not be noticed at all

      I was sick a couple of months ago, and missed a dose, probably two, and the effect was a dull, insistent headache.  I had no muscle pains.  It also seemed to kick me into 2 mg, after being stuck at 2.5 for months.  So I don't know what that was all about but I'm thinking I'm dealing with pred withdrawal and sluggish adrenals more than active PMR these days.
