I was diagnosed in April 2019 with PMR, put on 20mg prednisone. I've done the usual up and down, now tapering to 7mg with the 'safety net' of Leflonamide. (My rheumatologist's phrase.)
Amongst the usual side effects, I have steroid-induced Type 2 diabetes, osteopenia and weight gain. And now.....my tendons are so damaged I have rotator cuff syndrome. My physio has given me a bunch of exercises, and says I'll recover eventually. But I am absolutely exhausted by this disease.
Has anyone else experienced this?
