Hi @rearea1, welcome to Connect. Thank you for sharing your story. I also have PMR but it is currently in remission. I've had two occurrences of it 6 years apart. It recently went into remission last February. I think you hit the nail on the head with diet. I'm probably not as good at it as you have been but I've made some definite changes. I started after reading how cellular nutrition helped Dr Terry Wahls get rid of the symptoms of her MS. I do believe that nutrition plays a major role in autoimmune diseases. It's great to hear you are doing so well.

Are you still on prednisone?

John

John, when I came out of the hospital on 8/13/18, I was put on 7 mg. Today I am on 5 mg and next week will drop to 4. I will continue to drop by 1 mg every 2 weeks. I trust my journey with my healer, massage therapist, chiropractor, food plan and breathing exercises. My great concern is my bones. Not sure, but I would like to hope that when off prednisone , we can stop the bones from getting worse. Has anyone experienced that?
