I will definitely try to avoid pred too,, last time I was in hospital they asked me what usually works and they would be guided by me as to what treatment they gave, so they didn't give pred which turns out was the right think to do as no inflammation was showing in my blood. I just find it so complicated juggling all my health problems and trying to get on with every thing else life throws at me, I supposed those are the things that keep me grounded. My sugars atm are sitting in the low teens, which is easy too high, but I'm feeling with a sick dad and 120m mile round trips so I'm not surprised it's gone still squiffy.
