Hello HU friends. I am on 70 mg prednisone now. Sight in right eye is damaged. Right side peripheral plus a moon shape across the bottom. Lots of medical follow up in August. Feeling ok. Good sleeps. Today I overdid it in the morning so couch all afternoon. Rainy here in Ontario so good day to sit around. Trying to stay on track. Swim. Eat right. Thanks again For all your support.

Hi Alvertta, my heart goes out to you. You have certainly been through a lot. I also have the dreaded duo - PMR and GCA and I am constantly looking out for any signs relating to GCA . So sending prayers and hugs and I hope your health improves.

Hi Alvertta

I’m so sorry about the damage to your eye, l’m sure it will take some adjusting to.

Remember to pace yourself & spread the tasks around, there’s always tomorrow. Glad to hear you are still swimming & eating well.

Take Care 🌺
