1st day steroid free and 2nd day of waking with no neck pain! :)

[IdasMum]

Day 2 of no neck pain waking me....I am so happy and really hope that I do not have PMR and can find another way to manage symptoms.

Day 1 of no steroids.....have had no reply from my Dr so will make an appointment for this evening.

I have other pains but they are not classically bi-lateral.

I have felt alive for the last 3 days too...after my crisis point earlier this week.

Basically I am very happy at the moment.

IdasMum, this is great news! You are an inspiration. Long may it continue. Go gently.💐

Thank you.

I have just come back from a fabulous osteopath appointment...I am hoping to feel really lose and relaxed over the next day or two.

I realise that my neck pain has gone at 3mgs of Pred, as I only stopped today....and have come home to find an email reply from my Dr agreeing for me to continue on 3mg until we return from the UK.

I am liking today

Fingers crossed this lasts - and you have permission to use the pred until you get back. That's good!

Whoop whoop, I am really thrilled to read about your journey. Keep up with the bulletins.

Dear @DorsettLady, i was not telling anyone to not take steroids, i am happy that your eye was saved . there is nothing worse then being blind. i was merely saying how they effected me , and what others have said on this site. and it is very hard to get off of them. we all react differently to Parkinson's , and have usually, unusual ways that it effects us. by all means take steroids if it is helping you.
