They have done but as the dose got lower they just ache and my knees are very sore i think because of the loss of muscle strength so working at building that up
First of all I have to dictate this. So if my sentences begin to run together, you'll know why. I cannot keyboard because my hands were swollen today and they hurt. So let me just say that unless you're used to walking and exercising say for instance doing squats to strengthen the quads and also the glutes, you might experience fatigue in those muscles and some pain. And I just have to say you might have to work up to the point where walking does not bother you. But if you are referring to actual pain I do not know why. Maybe someone else's experiencing the same thing. And I guess like I mentioned before, some of the symptoms that I feel I can't really differentiate between the PMR flares and the side effects from prednisone.
