Hi.
Just looking a bit of advice on reduction of Pred. I was diagnosed 4 months ago with GCA and PMR at only 49. Have more recently been diagnosed with diabetes and anxiety as result of steroids. i also have had Fibromyalgia for 7 years. I was on 40mg Pred for 10 weeks and then told to reduce by 5mg every 2 weeks by Neurologist. However have been on 25mg for a week now and neck shoulder back hip pains have all returned again. Also have burning pains in hands and feet. Is this normal? I also still have blurred vision , jaw pain , numb face, sensitive scalp, headaches and head sweats which I presume is the GCA ? I have been to GP last friday and she said i need to discuss this with Neurologist next week. I did not expect all these symptoms to return at this level of Pred.
