Welcome @bobrizzo, It sounds like you are not having any trouble managing your PMR with the prednisone which is great to hear. The PMR Support Group here on Connect has many other discussions that you might also find helpful or interesting if you are looking for more information - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/polymyalgia-rheumatica-pmr/.

How long ago were you diagnosed with PMR?
