Flare
I ave only been taking Medrol for about three months, and because of the idiocy of my Rheumy, who had me taper to quickly, I have already had two flares. I was ok on 18 mg but flared at 16mg. Took myself back to 20mg at which I am ok. Not totally pain free, but ok. I have been taking the higher dose

Sulfasalazine, feeling much worse
I started three weeks ago. My health and symotons are much worse now. Feel like my health is declining and in a full on flare with hands curling again. Only other drug is depo medrol shot. Is this normal that it gets worse before it gets better?

Knee problems
I have had PMR for about five years and it is reasonably well controlled with 5mg of Medrol. Recently I have been having problems with swollen and sore knees. I am slightly overweight, probably due to the cortisone and two relatively recent ankle operations which left me with very limited mobility for

Hi, I have been on Medrol ( similar to prednisone) for two and a half years. My highest dose was 30 mg.

Can prednisone cause hives.
A few days ago when taking my daily dose of 25 mg prednisone I started to feel panicky, complete with the feeling of chest tightness and some difficulty swallowing. At first I dismissed it, knowing prednisone can cause panic attacks and I am prone to them. Next day same symptoms, but noticed hives in

After almost three years and multiple doctors I finally have a diagnoses of RRMS. Now they want do genetic testing for what I don't know, it's expensive and I'm not going to pay for it. I get my first round of solumedrol Monday. Wish me luck. It's got allot of side effects. I'm very apprehensive

Lots of veins
I've been on medrol for over a year. I've noticed the skin on my hands has thi nes and my veins now show. My hands appear older than the rest of me. Also lots of spider veins on my face and legs. I'm hoping to get off medrol at some point. Will the spider veins on my face disappear after I'm off

GETTING BETTER ALL THE TIME! TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE? VACULITIS, PMR/GCA??
Hi to All, My diagnosis has never been entirely clear. Antibodies to PR3 at 1.6 in September, 2016; given diagnosis of C- ANCA vasculitis, but no lung or kidney involvement that I could feel or see. I have always thought symptoms were PMR, (with family history of my maternal grandmother having had it

MS giving flu like symptoms
Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone ever feels like they have the flu but really don’t? In the past I’ve realized that I start to have flu like symptoms prior & during a relapse which is not fun at all. The last several days my head feel heavy, I have a constant headache or dull pain behind my eyes

Having PMR Is Like Dancing With A Gorilla……..
The dance isn’t over until the gorilla decides it’s over. On August 25, 2017, I began a treatment regimen which included weekly injections of depo-medrol that provided me with an average of 11.4 mg per day. Ten months later, I had tapered my daily dose to approximately 3.3 mg and switched over to 4.0
