Newly diagnosed PMR, still in shock - fighting it, sharing, learning

PMR is definitely one of the most painful things I've experienced. I agree that the possibility of side effects from prednisone didn't factor into the equation of whether to take it or not. If my rheumatologist would have assured me that eating dirt would eliminate the pain, I think I would have tried it.

@kjoed53 Love this!
I like to think of Prednisone as a combo of queen Latifah and Amy Schumer going in and kicking the rogue immune rebel cells a$$es that have gone haywire and began attacking my own body. They (prednisone) wear spike heel boots, are a little wild and messy, leave some broken parts and debris, but they’re putting those rogue crazies down and out.
Have to keep a sense of humor during this bizarre battle.
