Yes I did, I Was on super high doses for an asthma exacerbation in January of 2018 after being on a decreasing maintenance dose for the RA for 2 months prior. It took 6 months of reducing the pred to finally get off it, all while taking basaglar and metformin Extended release. After a couple months off the pred my sugars began to drop slowly so my basaglar dose came down with them til it was nil so I went off it and then cut the metformin Er in half for a couple months then my A1c got down to 6.0 and the Dr let me off all of it. It took 9 months altogether, but the RA wasn’t an issue all that time due to the pred
