I don't disagree with what you are saying but steroids alone were never going to resolve the issues I mentioned. I did take steroids for 6 months for my PMR after the other problems were identified and treatment plans known. The inflammation of PMR aggravated some of the problems and hid a couple of them. Steroids were both right and wrong, it was a matter of timing.
I still have idiopathic anemia, idiopathic neuropathy, idiopathic headaches and a few other undiagnosed symptoms.
