PMR type pain with normal blood labs
Hi. I just found this site and hoping to get some insight. The posts and advise I've read so far are outstanding and I wish I had found this site earlier. I have had PMR since December 2020. I've tapered down to 2 mg 2-3 times now. When I get below 4mg, the pain in my arms returns. I have assumed

eosinophils, cough, alopecia
My health issue started first with alopecia back April 2021 when I noticed my mustache having a patch spot. Than slowly it spread all over mustache and beard towards Sept 2022. During that same time, I noticed hair start falling in clusters. Did not fall entirely but called diffuse alopecia. However

Finally, we may have found the smoking gun.
We had been able to put it aside, and the hospital agreed they had made a mistake when they said Margaret had Cirrhosis. And was, in fact, NASH with Grade 1 fibrosis. Still, NASH was a surprise, as Magaret was a nondrinker, not obese, and had no health conditions that would even be considered for

Diagnosed under 55
I’m looking specifically for men and partners of men who were diagnosed with de novo stage four prostate cancer at their initial diagnosis. The treatments are different and unfortunately so it the overall outlook. The younger men are diagnosed with PCa, the more aggressive the cancer tends to be.

running out of Zytiga….
due to pre Auth issues I am going to run out of Zytiga …..I’m guessing I’ll be without it for at least a few days possibly a week…..haven’t heard back from MO about how to make the best use of what I have left and whether I should continue to take the prednisone. I have 4 days left at this point…..

Gastric side effect of PMR medications
Hello, I am relatively newly diagnosed with PMR, in July 2023, and just starting my tapering journey. I started on 20mg Prednisolone (now just reached 10mg), plus I take 15mg Lansoprazole and once a week 70mg Alendronic Acid. I started well, feeling great with the loss of my joint pain, but after

Rheumatologist diagnosis
Hi My Rheumy says my PMR is atypical with a normal CRP . My ESR is 39 . Which she believes is normal and it’s due to my weight - 14 stone . Wants to refer me to physio, this will be excruciating . The pain already makes me feel sick and like I’m going to pass out . She did ‘query’ inflammatory arthritis

Pred and unable to sleep
Hello. I often end up on several courses of prednisolone over the autumn and winter due to chest infections. Usually needing more than one course of steroids to settle my asthma back down I struggle to sleep with pred, especially for the first 2 - 3 nights. Does anyone have suggestions for helping?

Info about docetaxel
I have been at Stage 4 for 7 1/2 years. and a succession of Xtandi, Nubequa, and Zytega along with Lupron has kept my PSA under two although each has eventually failed (PSA quickly rising above 1.0). My recent blood draw resulted in a jump from 0.78 to 1.29 while I was on the Aberaterone/prednisone protocol

Cutting a 1mg tablet into 4?
Having got down to 10mg I’ve been tapering prednisolone by approximately 0.5mg a month. I’m now at 1mg and looking to reduce further in a couple of weeks but a little nervous about a 50% reduction to 0.5mg. Has anyone successfully cut plain 1mg tablets into 4 to produce a 0.75mg dose or is there a better

Methotrexate sensitivity

The rheumatology nurse says to miss my dose on Thursday and she will get back to me with a plan after speaking to

Alternate day prednisolone.
I have been on Prednisolone since June 2018. I have gradually reduced the dose and got down successfully to 4mg/day. I have reduced further using DSNS but have always relapsed after a couple of weeks. Alternate day prednisolone is used in some situations in Paediatrics. It is thought to reduce adrenal

What would you do?
Hello, I haven't checked in for a very long time because everything had been going ok.I've been on Prednisolone for 3 years this Christmas after getting diagnosed with PMR back in October 2020. Initial advised taper was too sharp, I flared very quickly and painfully. But, after joining this forum back
