@wendybfrompgbc Please have your CRP and Sed Rate tested again in 3 weeks. Personally it sounds like you are not in remission and b going completely off the prednisone is contributing to the return of PRM - aka a Flare.
If your PMR did not go into remission while on the steroids, then you still need something to help manage your inflammation that PMR is causing. This is where steroid sparing drugs come into play. Talk with our doctor about getting on a steroid sparing drug to support you going off steroids.
