Hi Gail.
Would you be willing to share a little about your PMR? How did it feel to you? Bi-lateral, I take it, for starters. Any info about how it felt to you and where it was located would be very much appreciated.
Also, have you had any reflux or other issues from the Ibuprofen? Even sporadically?
Do you take your Ibuprofen with food, just water, milk? And at any time of day or night?
Lastly, how often are you checked and do you know what labs are measured?
Thanks so very much! I have not been formally diagnosed yet, but pretty darned sure I have PMR. I am also trying the Ibuprofen route, but so far only taking 1 200 mg per day at bedtime. Been about 30 days now. I take it with a piece of bread and cup of Lactaid. I did eat a larger than normal dinner last night, 1 cookie and a little Skinny Pop after 9:30, then took the Advil.
Again, best to you and many thanks. I keep getting interrupted! Hope this makes sense.
