Yes, absolutely normal. If you haven't got brain fog due to the autoimmune part of PMR then pred is likely to do it instead - or even both. Without units for your CRP I can't assess whether it is high or not - but I suspect it probably is.
You really do need to consider whether you should be working at present - at least some time off sick will speed up the initial recovery. It won't cure the PMR but it will help get it under control.
