Suggest Remedies For Withdrawal Symptoms Of Prednisone

Took prendisone for 3 years for polymyalgia rheumatica. Blood test shows that is gone and the joint pain I now have is a withdrawal from prendisone even though I came off it very slow. Have tried tramadol advil etc. and nothing is working. Anything else I could try?
