@johnbishop I recently read that Prednisone is prescribed more for PMR than any other disease. Sorry, I don’t remember where I read it, but it was a recent article. It’s amazing bc nobody I know had ever heard of it before.

@bonandrods Before I was diagnosed with PMR the first time back in 2007 I had never heard of PMR but within hours of taking my first dose I had almost complete relief...until my next dose in the morning 🙂. My rheumy told me that is normally how they confirm the PMR diagnosis, if it provides relief within a short period of time.
