I have pain in my wrists - but I wouldn't say it was in the arteries.

Have you OA? I’ve forgotten! I have had wrist pain right from the beginning, but I don’t know if it is OA or PMR. Also OA now starting in my elbows. Isn’t life exciting - we never know what else is going to hit us, pain wise!😡

According to a rheumy 13 years ago yes - she could feel it in my right knee. Since a few months ago the radiologist couldn't identify anything I'm assuming the arrogant and rude rheumy was wrong! She worked with OH - heaven knows how she treated Joe Public!

I had quite a lot of wrist pain early on. It got better as the pred did it's magic, and hasn't returned with the same vengeance, even when reducing.

Yes, I have had severe wrist pain... it didn’t last long, maybe one month as I remember. I started taking magnesium and turmeric and it went away. Don’t know if that had anything to do with it, but I still take them everyday!!

Yes, I have experienced this but more of a twitching than a real pain and it's only momentary.

Yes, wrists hands, ankles and feet, more or less all the time, I'm sure it will go in the end!

I have wrist and hand stiffness and pain, some swelling of fingers at times...never had it before the PMR...now that I’m trying to drop down from 10mgs my old OA knee pains are making an appearance...I assume that’s what’s happening anyway..
