Thank you. Makes sense to me. I should be grateful it’s just my hands and not everything like before but we use our hands for everything even holding my coffee cup is painful till prednisone kicks in and that’s usually 2 hrs.

Yes ... I understand completely. I needed my hands more than some other parts of me. My hands were only stiff and sore every morning until I took my morning dose of prednisone.

I got annoyed with the question, "where does it hurt?"

PMR hurts everywhere if you ask me. I would have to prioritize where it hurt the most and that was mostly my shoulders when other places didn't hurt as much. On other days my shoulders didn't hurt as much as other places. That made it seem like the pain moved around.
