GP has suggested an increase in prednisone

As I had requested this it seems that the GP is willing to give it a try., Am up now to 15mg from 10mg.

Been on now for 6 days cannot say much improvement as yet. To be honest, I am however not in a great amount of pain but heavily limping towards the bad right leg and flat footed when walking

Just wondered it anyone else has experienced this with either PMR or sciatica. ? .

Am seeing the physio again on Friday.
