Hello @gonecoastal27932,

I combined your discussion on giving blood while living with a PMR diagnosis with an existing discussion titled:

"Pmr & blood donations"
- https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/pmr-blood-donations/

@seajay35, @johnbishop and @nyxygirl shared their experiences and thoughts on blood donation with a PMR diagnosis. @gonecoastal27932 - have you asked your provider for their opinion on donating blood while on prednisone? Is there a particular concern you are worried a bout to donating blood?

No I haven’t. Since I’m not sure what causes this, I don’t want to pass the problem to someone else. I will ask my Dr on next visit
