To Tangocharlie.

I would just like to say that my first appointment was a telephone appointment, my GP immediately from the symptoms diagnosed PMR, she prescribed Prednisolone (20mgs) initially, I went overnight from being unable to move to virtually back to normal. The most helpful part of the consultation was that she recommended I should follow this site. I have read it daily and been helped from the experiences of others particularly in terms of reducing the amount of steroids. I am now down to 2.5mg (after 2.5 years!) However, without the encouragement and advice from this site I would have been floundering. Good luck with your presentation.

I assume you meant this as a reply to the thread tangocharlie is running?

Yes. It is the first time I have posted, not sure about the protocol!

Hi and welcome!

As DorsetLady has explained, when replying to a thread you use the reply box there, either below the post itself or at the end for a general comment/reply or to each individual comment if you want to make a specific reply. Each comment has a blue Reply box under it - together with a like/heart symbol, Report and More which allows you to Edit or Delete your own post.

Just occurs to me - did you do that? It seems something of a slip to manage to write a separate post but it has happened several times recently and I wonder if it is an HU bug. And it came up with your user name as the title - which has also happened several times. I would put nothing past HU technology!!!!!

Nor me..!

[mellonudrigle in reply to PMRpro]

I thought I had just clicked reply! But hopefully I'll fare better next time. Thank you for advising me.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to mellonudrigle]

You may well have done - I think we need to have a moan at HU. Again ...

Well, we have got to the 6th January….🤣😂

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to DorsetLady]

Is that a record?

[DorsetLady PMRGCAuk volunteer in reply to PMRpro]

Probably…
