Do not have GCA

My new rheumy now owes me a beer lol. I told him this morning I did not have it and bet him beer for me if I was right and wine or whatever for him if I was wrong.

Still waiting to have MRI, I guess that is why they call us patients.

So not GCA but now we need to find what is causing the head pain and get it under control. New meds are being slowly added to my mix. The ideais gently, gently so I don't get side effects that affect test results or interact with the meds I am on.

Prednisone tomorrow goes from 50mg to 25mg, that makes me very happy.

Hope you are all doing ok. I need to sleep now I am so tired.
