Yes, keep giving the pepcid until he's off the Prednisone.
That's terrific he's having improvement in propreception! That means the steroids have reduced the spinal cord swelling.
Woohoo! I'm doing my Snoopy happy dance for you both!!

Good news that not only is Sherman not yet showing signs of pain or neuro loss during the taper of the Pred but you may actually be seeing some improvement. That's wonderful! You won't have complete proof that all swelling is gone until a couple of days after the final dose of the Pred and all meds. So still keep an eye out for any sign of pain or neuro loss. So glad he didn't injure himself during that last escape.
Yes, do continue the Pepcid AC every 12 hours for as long as Sherman is on any dose of Prednisone.
Keeping fingers crossed that taper continues through finish.
