Covid/PMR Questions
My doctor had warned me that because of the
prednisone
, I needed to contact her if I had exposure to or showed symptoms of Covid or any other bug. My recollection is that she said if I got sick, she would increase my dose of
prednisone
since my own immune system was suppressed by the
prednisone
.

Update on Tooth Extraction
Well!...... the remains of the tooth have gone and the whole experience has had some positives and some negatives!Let's start with negatives first:- - appointment start time...11.00am but actual start time.....12.05pm! Appointments were running way behind time. Not helpful when you're already feeling

The correct way to ween down on hydrocortisone? Advice please.
My last post was when I was just starting on 20mg of hydrocortisone changing from prednisolone and needed advice. Further down the line more advice needed please. On Monday I tested Covid ‘Positive’ I had avoided it since the first day that dreaded name was on everyone’s lips so it was a shock to find

Not a UTI
Thinking I had picked up a UTI (strange feeling in bladder area and frequent feeling of needing to urinate) I requested a urine test, which was done. The triage nurse at my surgery informed me that although it showed no infection there were in fact microscopic traces of blood in there, (which would be

First Rheumatology Appointment
I had my first rheumatology appointment today and I think it well unless any of you think otherwise as I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was diagnosed with PMR by GP at the end of June 2023 and successfully tapered from 15mg of Prednisolone to 10mg by the end of August however after three failed attempts

PREDNISOLONE and Methotrexate
hi, I’ve been on Pred for 15 months, gradually withdrawing. I got down to 3 mg and no further - a huge flair up. My rheumatologist has now suggested I take Methotrexate 20mg once a week, as well as increase Prednisolone to 10mg. Is anyone else on both these meds at the same time ? Has the Methotrexate

Understanding the source of my pain.
But could it be temporary
prednisone
myalgia that just took nine days to subside? I'm confused about what "
prednisone
mylagia" even is. Is the same thing as temporary
prednisone
withdrawal? Or are those two separate things?

3 Year Anniversary!
My rheumatologist suggested it to get off the
prednisone
. I am down to 1.5 mg per day. Going oh so slowly but not slowly enough for Rheumy! Always so appreciative of the advice and support of this forum.

Has anyone had to stop actemra?
Anyways I’m back up to 10mg of
prednisone
and not going back on Actemra because of diverticulitis. I was wondering if anyone else had a similar situation of having to abruptly stop Actemra and how did it go?

Prednisolone
Hi all. I haven't posted for a while, but I am on here everyday reading all your updates.I had an ablation in November 21. I have had a couple of AF episodes since, but they didn't last too long. I am getting what I think are palpatations, which seem to be getting worse. I have been feeling quite poorly

Another Cialis Question
After some ups and downs with his liver values, he is currently taking Orgovyx, Abiraterone, and
Prednisone
. PSA and T are undetectable, and he is doing as well as can be expected. Now, my husband is in “cruise control” mode (his MO’s words).

GCA morphing into PMR?
Hello dear friends: I’ve been on the GCA journey almost 3 years now and I am down to 1 mg
prednisone
. I’ve been under terrible stress especially the past week but continuing for a couple months. And suddenly now and I am almost off of
prednisone
for GCA, I have fear that PMR is kicking in.

Newly diagnosed with limited systemic sclerosis
I was diagnosed in September 2023. I’m currently on prednisolone and hydroxycholoquine. I’ve struggled with fatigue for close to 2 years now and it has been the most debilitating symptom so far.

PMR flare
Hi all I have PMR and GCA which up until now have been under control, I’m on Methotrexate and Tocilizumab and currently 1mg Prednisolone, but I’m having joint pain at the moment in mainly one shoulder and my knees ( not had any issues with Knees before).
