Has anyone fought Polymyalgia without prednisone successfully?

Just interjecting a caution comment about ibuprofen. My husband was taking it for back pain, started having stomach issues, had an endocopy. He had developed a very large ulcer and we were lucky to get it under control before it progressed to something worse.

How much ibu was he taking per day and for how long?
Also wonder about his ibu use before the back issues.
What kind of stomach issues was he having?
Very happy to hear it was caught and treated. How did the doc treat his ulcer? Hope your husband has found something else to control his back pain that is not as tough on him!
