Thank you for your advice Sue. I am slowing stepping down since being prescribed in January 2025 with 25 mg prednisone. I am down to 4 mg and will be on 3 mg in two days. I am slowly stepping up my dose of Naltrexone (LDN) prescribed by my private functional doctor to treat my hypothyroidism. After 21 years of relying on my GP , I am making my own decisions about my health. PMR was a wake up call!

Boy, is it ever! One of my mottos is "The best helping hand is the one at the end of your own arm." However, try to realize that those docs that you encounter do have something to offer. It may be totally wrong for you but still useful. Read as much as you can and look up words when necessary. And ask lots of questions. Feel free to refer to us now and again. There is a lot of experience on these pages. Good luck!
