Inflammatory Conditions
"Following surgical  removal of 2 herniated discs in 11/2014, pain was less severe.   Some relief   like a 7  on scale instead of 9.5 ! However, the pain has returned.  Fentenly patches do not seem to work .  Nor does Tramadol.  I have been on &amp; off of  Prednisone for years.  So I took a dose of 60 mg this morning.  The pain has definitely subsided.  I intend to take another high dose, probably 50 mg, at bedtime.  I honestly believe that the Prednisone relieved  my chronic lower back pain in a case where Fentenyl &amp; Tramadol  were not as effective."
