I want to ask a question, please give as many answers as possible. You know how it goes...I hope I receive more friends saying "go for it", since it helps more than it harms!
I have had PN for many years. I had to change professions, from outside sales to inside sitting at a desk making MUCH less money!
I know Steroids are NOT a good thing to take, but it is the ONLY thing that relieves my pain. Can I ignore that warning now that I am 90?

Hi @fala, Sounds like the steroids are giving you a better quality of life by relieving your pain which is a good thing. I would probably have a discussion with my doctor on the pros and cons of continuing the steroids before making a decision.
