Almost there, but...

For the last couple of weeks I have been experiencing joint pain in my left jaw and in my right hand. I have noticed that opening zip locked bags has been a problem. I feel like I am losing my grip :). I can't squeeze things very well.

I have been tapering my Pred to the point that I am somewhere between 1.75-2 mgs. I cut 10 mgs in quarters. When I did, some did not cut cleanly, but broke into smaller pieces. Since I am pretty sure I am very close to remission, I just dump the pieces out and take the largest each day. Not pharmacologically a great idea, but I hate to waste the meds and I really don't have other symptoms right now.

I am just wondering if the joint pain will go away or should I be concerned.

Started Pred September 2011. Successfully tapered once back in May 2012 and was off for only a month before symptoms returned.
