It's like having a best friend, doctor, and psychologist. I so appreciate you so very much. I was diagnosed with PMR 2 years ago. I went down to 0 Prednisone this last July, 2022. I was so happy. I had a severe flare up right after I stopped the Prednisone. My pain was so much more that the original pain that set the diagnosis in motion.
I had to go back to 10mg. At this time my PMR is still active on 10mg. I don't feel well, I have symptoms that are minimal but they are there...headache, shoulder pain, wrist pain, heavy feeling in my head, eyes heavy and watery.
Please help me to make a decision to either go up on the dosage of Prednisone, or to tolerate symptoms that may go away and stay on 10mg for a while. I am telling you all this, because if I tell my doctor she will automatically put me on a higher dose. Hugs, Alexandria
