PMR relapse symptoms

That’s exactly what I’m feeling also. Never had this before prednisone. But now it’s 3.5 years later and I’m 63 so could be being older. But I believe prednisone accelerated bone issues. Whenever I was in higher doses of prednisone I could hear my bones rubbing together making noises. Not when in low dose. Only high dose. So I think it was harmful in that way.

I'm hearing that rubbing noise in my shoulder joints. Other joints now make popping noises at first when exercising. Just dropping to 3.5 but noticed noises this last month. I was hoping it would go away when off prednisone. Thanks for sharing.

I am 68 and my understanding is that the low-level discomfort is a result of the PMR itself. It is incurable. I think this is what we will experience from now on.
