I'm new here, but not new to PMR
It's encouraging to me to hear how you all are coping with PMR. My 1st bout with PMR was 13 years ago, I was in my mid 50's. Pretty much text book case....on steroids for two years. This time starting, 15 months ago and starting taking prednisone since April last year. Taking the usual, AA and Adcal-D3

Vitamin D3 deficiency
I've just had Dr on phone telling me I am Vitamin D deficient. He said my levels were under the NHS lab of 30 (which he says is their range for deficient) and they didn't even register. He is prescribing me 3200 D3, which after reading posts on here, I feel is not enough. I asked him if I should take

What would you do?
Brothers: Two pelvic lymph nodes, tumor burden in one, was 2.7cm, in the other it was 2.5cm. Now, one year later, with only 150mg daily of casodex monotherapy, both nodes have been reduced to 1.6cm. PSA one year ago was 105; now it is 6.7 I am thinking of adding Advodart and monitoring the two nodes
