I can relate to some of the things you were saying about how you deal with certain medication’s. Every single person reacts differently to each and every medication no two people will react the same. I react very very badly to every medication that I took for PMR not one medication worked for me. Presently I got A very bad reaction to methotrexate!!! I am dizzy most of the time and gotten seen by many many doctors and nobody can figure out why I’m so dizzy most of the time. I was checked out at the ER and went to several more doctors and right now I’m taking one day at a time and hoping for the best. I can relate to my situation when I was taking prednisone. April 2023 is when I got PMR. My rheumatologist started me at 10 mg of prednisone which for most people is no big deal but for me I had a situation with anything over 8 mg of prednisone. I can’t remember how the prednisone made my joints feel really really great I was so happy with that but I always felt lightheaded and never connected it I feel like I was going to faint every time I walked because I was like unsteady on my feet didn’t put two into together until way later. Other people could take 40 and 50 mg of prednisone with no problems at all. So the bottom line is everybody reacts differently to each and every medication and I learned that if it’s really getting you sick speak to your doctor immediately it can’t hurt. My very very best wishes to you moving forward!!!
