Precursor symptoms to PMR?

How long have you been on prednisone? , and how many milligrams per day. I can’t get below 6 mg in almost 3 years.
So happy that your vision was saved 🤗

Thanks for your response. That was a scary time when my vision was glitching out.

I've been on prednisone for 6 months. I started at 60 mg / day, and I'll be stepping down from 12.5 to 10 in a couple of days. I won't know the taper plan going forward until my rheumatologist appointment in 3 weeks.

Do you know if your problem tapering is due to the PMR still being present or because of adrenal issues?
