I relate to your tale of woe entirely -my journey almost mirrors yours entirely.

I'm on 20mg of Prednisone daily and it has kept the pain at bay. Hot, hot showers help!

Here's to remission!

Yes, here's to very long and very hot showers! Before diagnosis and steroids someone suggested regular hot tub use. I laughed. . . there's no way I would have been able to get in and out of a hot tub, or any tub for that matter. Even now it would be challenging and probably very funny to watch! I hope you're able to reduce the prednisone soon and that remission is not far off.
