Hives still stay gone as long as i'm on the prednisone. I guess I've been on it since the end of Oct. now.  I have not been running as everytime I start to feel better and begin running I break out. I don't think it is the running I think it is when I come off the prednisone but I don't know.  I played in part of the game last night but was very sore today.  I did go to the gym to work out.  I lifted some weights which was on my workout plan and walked a little.
