Can my severe lower lumbar pain be from PMR? I was diagnosed with PMR last year, finished with the prednisone after six months and was feeling fine. Now I have such severe pain in in my lower lumbar that it made me wonder if it. Outdoor be PMR flare up.

Hi @reets70, Sorry to hear about the new pain. It's probably something you want to discuss with your rheumatologist or doctor. Six months seems like a very short time with PMR. There is another discussion you might find helpful.
