Hi mick,
Well at least you're now more stress free. The greatest enemy of these illnesses is stress, so now feel free to pace yourself. Swimming sounds good, but at a leisurely pace - no going for the record!
I've had PMR for 3+years, but my illness has died right down and I'm back to gardening and hedge trimming. Feels so good! I'm on 6mg now and virtually pain and stiffness free.
Pats.
Glad your feeling better pats,im reducing 20 one day 15 other for 2 weeks then 15 for 2 weeks till see consultant .Im on 15 methotrexate for 2 weeks upping to 20 for 2 weeks.
