Pain ever goes away on its own?

I’m doing PT now hoping to be able to get back to an exercise routine. I used to walk or play golf every day, and for the past 1 1/2years, I can do nothing! Without Prednisone it’s hard to walk or even sit without pain. What’s next for me???

PMR can definitely put the slammer on your favorite activities. Not sure anyone can say what's next but for me what helped was trying to keep a positive attitude along with learning what lifestyle changes I can make to support getting off of the prednisone with a minimum amount of pain. I changed my eating habits to eat healthier and less inflammatory foods along with keeping my activities and exercise to a moderate amount which changed depending on how I was doing on a particular day. Hoping the PT helps you get back to a regular routine with exercise.

I can understand what you’re saying PMR can be super frustrating!!! with joint pain your body will tell you what you can do and what you can do. what I do is try to listen to my body and only do what I can do comfortably even though it’s super Duper frustrating!!! Old routines he just not work at this time for you. but I do it’s only what I could do comfortably I do not push the envelope when possible because it’s not gonna get me anywhere but frustrated. try to take one step at a time even though I know it’s super Duper Duper Duper hard to do!!! wishing you the very best of luck going forward!!!
