Pred versus diet

Whenever I mention to anyone that I have PMR and am taking Prednisolone, they ask, can't you control it with diet, but I wouldn't know where to start. Is this possible, and does anyone have any suggestions please

Morning

AS far as diet goes we can have a low carb diet to help with weight and eat food that helps with inflammation .

But as far as I'm aware that is all.

Perhaps thay hear that you can control illnesses like Diabetes and think PMR is the same as far as being controlled

Jeannie29 in reply toRose54

Yes,Rose54,you are probably right, people who don't know PMR don't really understand, but still make me feel a bit defeatist

The only (and I mean the ONLY) thing to control the pain and incapacity of PMR is prednisolone, which causes increased appetite = weight gain hence the low card diets that you see here, the prednisolone can also cause diabetes so the low carb diet helps prevent that. Sadly I had diabetes before I got PMR!

Since taking prednisolone I have been virtually pain free apart from my groin which I am now thinking may be iliospoas bursitis but have been tapering off and was down to 9mg and had two flare ups last week and had to up the dose

No Jeannie we can’t control these auto-immune diseases with diet, I wish we could. We have to have the steroids because otherwise we would have, pain, stiffness, limited mobility and dangerous inflammation in the arteries. With PMR this could allow more serious forms of Vasculitis to develop, like GCA or in the Aortic Valve. Of course with the latter two, unchecked inflammation can cause irreversible effects like loss of eyesight.

I find it annoying when people continually question the steroids we have to take, as if it somehow shows a lack of self discipline.

That is not to say that a good diet, rich in vitamins and minerals, high in calcium and vit D is not a very good goal and that white carbs and sugar are our enemy. You see lots of anti- inflammatory diets on the Internet. Who knows? People claim great benefits from them. No doubt they will speak to you, if they see your post.

Nobody ever wants to take Pred with all its downsides but so far, there is nothing else and actually it is pretty good.

Oh that is irritating - if it was as easy as changing our diets to get rid of PMR, I think we would all have done it by now! Having said that, a bad diet will make the situation worse. A good diet (low carb, no sugar, lots of veg) will help prevent weight gain, reduce inflammation, protect our bones, etc.

You may be able to help it a bit and so manage on a slightly lower dose of pred - but it can only help so much. Pred is the only reliable answer to the inflammation of PMR I fear.

You may also find claims on the internet that "I cured my x,y,z by diet" but most of them are guff. Usually expecting you to pay for a diet plan and a load of supplements - good for the seller, less good for your bank balance.

I will admit that there is a study that found a strict vegan diet helped reduce joint pain in rheumatoid arthritis. It only worked for half of the not particularly large group and any reintroduction of even very small amounts of animal protein in the form of dairy caused the pain to return. The patients did manage to stick to the diet while they were provided with their meals - but it was so extreme they mostly gave up when they had to fend for themselves. This was some years ago so it is probably far easier now to try it. Venus Williams claims to manage her Sjogren's syndrome with a raw vegan diet. But we don't have either RA or Sjogren's.

But people have very high expectations of diet after all the stuff celebrities spout without knowing the first thing about nutrition and of the medical field. Sadly there aren't always easy answers or better drugs or even cures. It isn't you - it's them...

What a strange thing to ask. Why do they think you can control it with diet? Do they think the same about cancer, ebola .... ?? Sadly the only thing that really helps the pain is pred. Diet helps us all irrespective if we have PMR or not. A good diet is a lot better than a bad diet!

Yes I try to stick to a healthy diet anyway, I always have. I think because mainly so many people have never heard of PMR

There was a place in Bristol that was offering chopped up raw veg as a cure for cancer. I think in the end they were taken to court as people kept dying. It just seemed strange that Jeannie’s friends were suggesting diet instead of meds.

In the US cardiologists are the ones who "discover" miracle cure diets. A friend of mine whose lungs are badly affected by scleroderma went to Palm Springs to spend money on the author of The Plant Paradox. Lacking your research skills, I nevertheless spent hours finding scientific refutations of the doctor's claim to have found the cure for inflammation. In another instance, my supposedly rational lawyer sister is all abuzz about how another cardio, who wrote a book called something like Forks and Knives, cured her colleague's Lupus. And then there's Gwyneth....

I find that I a lot of people have never heard of PMR, someone commented yesterday that she would keep on going no matter what,as if l was being rather lazy .lt is very hard to explain how debilitating it can be. I was always so active but cannot do very much without having to have a rest.l think that the previous posts say everything about the best diet for PMR,it is lmportant to lower the carbs ,otherwise just eat healthily,plenty of green veg, and salad,plus bright coloured fruit and veg with reasonable portions of protein and dairy.Sorry that you encountered such uninformed people,l know that it can be quite depressing.

HeronNS profile image

Short answer, no you can't control PMR with diet, although the comments on here about a healthy low carb diet being helpful in keeping our weight down and not exacerbating the inflammation is spot on. But diet didn't cause PMR and it won't make it go away. Just consider the immense variety of persons on the forums sharing their experiences and I bet no two of us have the same diet, nor exactly the same combination of circumstances which triggered PMR. We are a mystery both to ourselves and our medical people.

What irks me is the reflexive comment when they hear "polymyalgia" : "Oh is that like fibromyalgia?" Not to say fibromyalgia isn't a horrible disease for those who've got it, but why does it get all the press and PMR is unknown unless you have or know someone who has it? Plus PMR comes with the added gift of being controllable only by an interesting medication which comes with its own set of challenges.

Insight329 profile image
Insight329 in reply toHeronNS

Ha! You answered your own question on why polymyalgia gets the press — pharmaceutical companies advertising their products fighting for their share of the market. The makers of Pred (hmmm, either I’ve never know or I’ve forgotten) don’t have to advertise. They know we’re in their pocket. God bess Pred.

The notion that food is 'medicine' has a LOT to answer for - especially when you see what some people regard as an appropriate diet and what they 'THINK' it can do !! The scientific evidence is there and anything extreme is unlikely to be healthy - obviously - but the again some people have very subjective notions of what is balanced or 'extreme'. Anyway and it is a BIG 'anyway' I personally would rather NOT go through life forcing myself to try to control everything I eat to the enth degree - especially when Pred actually has been PROVEN to be helpful. Clearly this doesn't mean I eat lots of 'junk' and highly processed food - but I don't eschew cake totally either ... and if anyone says I 'deserve' to be unwell because of that then all I can say they are not my kind of people !

We live in a very 'individualising' world - which suggests we somehow 'get' what we 'deserve' rather than things can just happen to us - or that there are predetermined contexts for our lives over which we have little or no control. So don't take any notice of people who like to blame you for your 'bad luck' with health or anything else for that matter !

Lots of good points from other contributors.

I’ve read that there is no research that supports that PMR can be controlled by diet. However there are things you can do to help reduce side effects of the medication so that when you recover you are in the best health possible.

I have reduced carbs to help prevent diabetes.

I’ve increased calcium to help bone density

I’m trying to avoid sugar - I am eating more fruit that is often considered not a great idea, but I like it and it’s better than a cake!

I’m also eating a lot more veg and very little meat.

I eat a lot of fish

These are just my own ideas based on various things I’ve read. Having any illness is miserable so as much as possible you need to get enjoyment and optimum nutrition from your food. If you don’t enjoy your diet you will not stick to it.

Just as a note of interest: a friend of mine has had great success controlling severe arthritis by diet. However the results took a long time coming, many would have given up long before they saw an improvement. It also takes a lot of time and dedication but for her it’s worthwhile.

Daisychain12 profile image
Daisychain12 in reply toBamber99

I try and sort of do what you do. I long for cake soooo much though. I don’t think I would have been able to keep up the strict arthritis diet if it showed no results so I admire your friend. Oh it’s tough isn’t it xx

I do not think so. But I do think you can control the side effects of prednisone with various diets. I am now on (and off and on) a LUPUS diet by Dr. Brooke Gardner. (youtube video or a web site called smoothieshred (dot com) is where I got the information. BUT don't PAY anything. it's just green smoothies. every morning huge ones. with mostly greens (spinach kale and swiss chard ) with a banana or blueberries to save you from the taste. and then no dairy no meat (I hardly manage that) and lots and lots and lots of salads and veggies. I know others do a lo carb diet. But I think it is all for the side effects ...or if you are overweight and need to lose..both kinds will do it. I did notice my hair was falling out less on the smoothie diet. but that could be any number of things!

Also I have a friend who has PMR and was the healthiest eater I have ever known. Markers also always LOW with the blood tests which is why the Rheumy told him to slash prednisone dose rapidly and he ended up having to start all over when his PMR flared. Prednisone is the only way with a slow slow taper (THANK goodness FOR dead slow nearly stop!) and for all of you! )

I had the same remark made to me on Saturday by a dear friend. " Can't you use diet to control PMR instead of taking that poison?"

Made me feel inferior as she went on to say how giving up sugar, dairy, meat and fish and eating a vegan diet had got her off her (single) antidepressant. Nothing to do with the months of counselling and getting over her last relationship breakup then :)

I felt quite upset but did explain that I needed the "poison" no matter what I ate. I am glad other people feel the same. I love my food and cooking was my big hobby. I thank Mr "Roids for still being able to manage to cook on good days. Everything in moderation. Apricot Tarte Tatin anyone :D :D :D

I had not heard of PMR before I was dxd. This is funny. My husband & I sat in our first visit with the Rheumy, who went on and on about it. We were relieved about a bit of it, like it wasn't life-threatening if controlled and it wasn't contagious. But the only question we kept asking him, with very puzzled looks, was "WHAT's it called again?" Those two words had never been strung together in our lifetimes!! Polymyalgia Rheumatica. That is a tongue-twister for me! It took me three months to learn to say it out loud and I still can't spell it all out! (Thankfully there is "PMR".)

So I have to go easy on my friends and acquaintences because understanding the rest right off the bat is harder than learning the name! It is my chance to spread the word.

Hugs,

When I was first diagnosed I asked the rheumy if there was anything I could do with diet. He printed out a sheet listing some "anti-inflammatory" foods that I could experiment with. (I noted with delight at the time that sugar was not on the list.) Since I have been paying attention it is clear that there are many opinions as to what constitutes inflammatory foods, depending on who you talk to. The low-carb crowd blames refined carbohydrates. The vegan crowd blames meat products. Others hail nightshades as the culprits. Many point to refined omega 6 vegetable oils. For what it is worth, I'm with the low carb crowd, and having eliminated refined carbs from my diet these past 9 months I would expect it to have had an impact on my PMR inflammation, but that hasn't happened as I've struggled to taper from 15mg to the more desirable 10mg level of pred.
