I was diagnosed with GCA on October 10 2018. I started at 60mg, gradually reduced to 35 by December 25, then after a two week vacation back up to 40mg as my sed rate went up to 15. Too much sugar and alcohol. February 14, with sed at 2, reduced to 35 after consulting my rheumatologist. Since then I feel awful... dizzy, spaced, shoulders and upper arms ache, back ache, tired. Heart rate over 100 if I just walk across the room. Is it the reduction from 40 to 35? Any words of wisdom.. age 71.
Will help. Thank you.
