Saw internist yesterday to discuss latest blood test. Sed rate at 33, dehydration and low white blood count. I’ll take it. But it was obvious he has been “boning” up on PMR, adrenal insufficiency, proper and slow way to reduce steroids. All in all, it was almost as if he had been on this site. He was much more realistic about the processes of PMR. He reinforced all I have learned here. Thank you, folks.

Good to hear he’s been reading up on PMR…
They live and learn too. Reassuring.
You seem to have found someone who cares, how nice that feels.
He’s a keeper!
