Hello Flaring Versus Prednisone Withdrawal... I'm So Confused.. So I've

Hello
Flaring versus prednisone withdrawal... I'm so confused..
So I've made it from 20mg to 10mg and now I've started 9mg
It was rough but I stayed strong..
I'm having swelling behind the back of my knees, the tumid lupus rash has made its appearance on my chest, slight malar rash, fibromyalgia pain...
Only 3 days on 9mg and already this immediately.. Sigh..
I feel like the methotrexate isn't working Bc isn't this flaring not withdrawal?! Any input would be great... Should I keep tapering?!? I'm so sick and tired of dealing with this!!!!
