Needing a little help

Thought my PMR and GCA had gone. After three weeks stiffness and pain and high inflammatory markers returned. I started on 5mgs Pred. Do you think I started on the right dose or should I have gone higher. My PMR feels much improved but low grade headache and slight jaw claudication still present.

Probably best to check with your Doctor. We aren't medically qualified to advise on that.

Hi Reddev. We wouldn't be able to advise you on this I'm afraid. I don't know if you know but there is a forum on Healthunlocked for your condition, it's the PMRGCAuk forum, they will have a lot more knowledge there. x
