I have been on the Mediterranean diet forever. I am Italian makes it easy. We have never been consumers of pre prepared meals of food. Occasionally we have baked beans on toast. I am 77 in general good health. My doctor has me on declining Preds now down to 4mg. I take Curcumin and drink anti-inflammatory teas.
I have had PMR for 18mths and annoyed with the impact on my lifestyle. Currently off any alcohol for June. With my evening meal I used to drink a third of a bottle of wine mainly red. It seems like it is helping.
I exercise daily and spend some time on my garden and outdoors generally. Where we live in Perth WA we have a great climate and great tree canopy. Lots of native birds etc. So ideal and still can't shake the PMR.
Maybe it is an age and general body deteriorating. Thoughts.
Any comments on effects of alcohol on PMR. Any further ideas to help recovery would be welcome.

When I drink, I have more pain. My best friend has PMR as well. When she drinks, she has pain.

I have one drink every now and then. I go with everything in moderation as my guide. The achoo turns to sugar which is inflammatory so I don't eat desserts mostly but an occasional cookie does slip in. things like prunes sour cherries turmeric chews all may help or at least make me feel like I am looking out for myself.
