Side effects from recent prednisone discontinuation

I just finished tapering off of prednisone last week (started on 60 mg and tapered over 2.5 months) and I'm incredibly exhausted, plus my feet swelled up so badly that I couldn't put my shoes on, but that seems to be getting better. I've also had migraines almost continuousoly since I stopped taking the prednisone and I never get headaches. Have other people experienced these side effects from going off of prednisone? If so, how long do they last? And, have you found that anything helps combat the symptoms? I've never been this exhausted in my life...it's a completely novel feeling. It's better than the side effects that I had while on prednisone (apparently I had all of them or most), but I just wanted to get a sense of when the prednisone curse will end. Any information or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much, Lauren.   

i would get very verrry tired tapering pred. I didn't notice much until dropping below the 15mg mark. I could barely think and felt like a zombie. It took maybe two weeks to gain back some energy. The tiredness should go away for you too, just give it some time. Your body was getting a nice boost of cortisol and needs time to even out.

Thanks everyone for your responses. I was feeling pretty good for a few days when I was on 5 mg every other day, but generally I had really bad side effects on the prednisone (e.g. tremors, extreme weakness, muscle atrophy, tingling in arms and face, mood swings, acne, etc.). The exhaustion is new since I've been off of it. I was very weak before (couldn't walk more than a couple of blocks without getting tremors), but I didn't feel totally exhausted. It's like someone slipped me a sleeping pill. I guess I just need to be patient, but it's really tough feeling bad for this long. I just want to feel semi-normal again. On the upside of things, I don't have any active inflammation anymore, so if these prednisone residual side effects go away, then maybe I can start feeling half-way human again. It's really useful to know that people start feeling better, because my doctor told me that the exhaustion could take up to a year to go away and I felt like I wanted to start crying when he said that. He didn't mention the edema (swelling in my feet) or the headaches, so that freaked me out a bit. But, I also couldn't imagine living like this for an entire year, so it's helpful hearing that the exhaustion lifts sooner. Thanks again.
