Has anyone fought Polymyalgia without prednisone successfully?

Took Prednisone for nearly 5 months, gained weight, had dizziness…felt my head was full of something…..took myself off slowly…so hoping I can find something that won’t also effect my bones. Taking Jarrow “Boneup” to build n strengthen my bones.

Right now on CBD, which helps a little, not out of pain.

This PMR is frustrating to say the least.

Lashley, I am the same age (75 in a few weeks), do not want to even consider Pred due to having all the issues caused by taking it. Except diabetes and do not want to add that to the list.
Tell me, does CBD affect you mentally at all? No high or anxiety, right? I know it has none of the psychoactive ingredients found in pot.
Do you take drops, gummies or what? And how do you know it's good quality.
I'm considering Celebrex. Right, this is very frustrating.
