Back on Pred from today under local GP for my PMR

Starting on 15mg per day initially which I think is pretty standard. Already feel better. Getting in and out of the taxi tomorrow will tell me more.

My PMR started in 2008 but not diagnosed until 2011 due to concern about my CRP? of over 100. Had a lot of bloods done then to exclude other conditions all of which were repeated in 2020

Sorry to hear it’s resurfaced and let’s hope the 15mg works for you.

Any way couldn't get into the cab today. Need to try a different approach and give myself more time and sit in one of the front seats with the seat shifted back for more room. Looked at some videos of pelvic and knee replacement individuals to see how I might do it.
