I can't complete my profile. Following the statement that I have pmr I'm asked for 'Associated Treatments'. What does that mean?

Every time I enter 'Prednisolone' in answer to the question 'Associated Treatments' for pmr, it is rejected. I must be misunderstanding what 'Associated Treatments' means.

Hi, Try “steroids” instead…. it may only accept a generic term. If you still have issues - tap your profile picture top right and then select help? Gives you choice to ask HU the question.

I think it's maybe just the spelling? It's an "o" rather than an "a" in prednisolone.

I've edited the spelling of Prednisolone in my post. Really I ought to have known better! Thanks for pointing this out! I wasn't the cause of the trouble though, as the word was autocompleted by the form.

Ah ok, as long as it’s worked now! I vaguely remembered there being some sort of autocomplete function which is why I'd wondered about the spelling...

Not surprised - it isn't really clear at all!!!

Yes it's very confusing. Assuming it meant the form was asking me what treatments i was taking for PMR, I tried again. As before it gave me PMR treatment names to choose from when I started typing,. As before I clicked 'Prednisolone' and my entry was autocompleted. But as before my form was rejected when I tried to move on. However this time I I noticed that below ithere lurked an added question. Current treatment or Past treatment. I clicked Current Treatment and lo and behold, my entry was accepted.
