Extreme sweats will they diminish; Zitiga is it worth it
Is the Zytiga with 5mg
Prednisone
worth it considering the side effects and, if I am reading things correctly, only extends Lupron effectiveness only about 6 months? Thanks for any insights.

Hip pain
I've been tapering from 20 mg
prednisone
to 6 for 18 months, but even at higher levels the
prednisone
has not made much of a difference. I take Tylenol sometimes but don't want to take too much. I'd love to hear what others have done to deal with hip pain. Thanks.

UTI,s
Dropped fron 22.5
prednisone
to 20 three days ago and started having bad uti consequences. It must just be a consequence. See if Bactrim antibiotics works. Have you ever heard of this happening?

PMR like symptoms r/t chronic tooth abscess?
I will be off
prednisone
by tomorrow and will have repeat labs following. Let's pray all my markers have returned to normal. My markers have never been normal despite being on
prednisone
. So we will see.

8/4/23 Update questions for MO
To review, after 19 months on Lupron, Zytiga,
prednisone
, PSA increased on 1/23 to 0.253, then 0.309 on 2/21. Plarify scan showed only one active site in hip which was radiated. 4/4 PSA dropped to 0.24 which indicated the lesion was knocked out and I would be hormone sensitive and stay on Zytiga.

”….it is unlikely that PMR will be diagnosed”
Do I simply take
Prednisone
if prescribed? Any help advice or information appreciated. I’m 71, fit for my age, not on any other medication (just come off Atorvsstatin). thanks

Hi there 👋
Always looking for tips in dealing with PMR,
prednisone
, side effects of steroids, tapering, lifestyle adjustments and interpersonal relations. And sometimes it’s great to have a place to check out if what I’m experiencing is par for the course or maybe it’s not PMR and I need to check it out.

Dry cough and GCA
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22451028/ My question is now, one and a half years into treatment and down to 3 mg
Prednisone
per day (no other meds), should I be concerned that this tickly dry cough comes back intermittently at night?

UTI infection
I assume this shows how my immune system is not working well now thanks to
prednisone
and Kevzara and that an infection is what will finish me off rather than the PMR. Also having a temporal biopsy tomorrow. So this is a rather anxiety-provoking week.

5mg prednisone is working now, body feels like it has adapted to the lower dose
Does anyone think 5mg
prednisone
is helping my hands from getting worse? As in carpel tunnel? Is that an inflammatory thing? Trigger finger is tendons inflammation. I don't think 5 mg is a lot of
prednisone
. Sure it still has an effect on raising of blood sugar since I take insulin.

Pmr flare-up mainly just in legs
Was scheduled t o reduce my
prednisone
from 22.5 to 20 mg on June 27 but stayed at 22.5 as general opinion seemed that dropping 2.5 every 2 weeks may be too rapidly. Feeling good up t o yesterday with minor leg pain that would wear off in about an hour after getting up and taking my
prednisone
.

Alendronic Acid
It has been recommended that I take Alendronic Acid to protect my bones whilst taking
Prednisone
as I now have Osteoporosis.

PMR Update
The last Rheumatologist wanted me off the
prednisone
without taper to see how bad I can get so he can order yet another PET scan. Needless to say, I went to get a second opinion. Yes, this Rheumatologist stated I was to young to have PMR.

Heart Medicine Increased inhaled steroid absorption.
My muscles are already weaker from being on
prednisone
since 2015. And I am doing a slow taper. But I’ve had no trouble walking and my face was normal. I am tapering to 7 1/2 mg . Lo and behold there is a drug interaction between diltiazem and inhaled steroids.
