@vanmeerd to tell you the truth I don’t know if it’s working. The first time I was on prednisone only. This time it’s prednisone plus methotrexate. But I really can’t tell you if the methotrexate is doing anything. I found taking the full dose, the doctor prescribed was making me too nauseated so the previous two months I decreased taking half of it. So I feel better from that regard and I’d love to tell you that it works, but I don’t feel any different than I did the first time I had PMR. I know that doesn’t really help you. I’m down to 2 mg of prednisone and I don’t see reducing anytime soon as I’m still experiencing shoulder pain. Not a great deal, but it’s not going away either.
