Summary
This study looks at 200 adults with rheumatoid arthritis to understand why some people feel worse when they slowly reduce their steroid medication (like prednisone), while others do fine. Researchers will measure inflammation, brain activity, and hormone levels to find clues. The goal is to help doctors personalize steroid tapering plans in the future.
