My name is Beryl ....having had PMR for many years and being on three mg of ped for around two years and I am to keep it at that ....only going up if need be ....doctors orders.....
I have always got pain and have been able to ignore it, during the day at night I can't as it stops me sleeping and will get worse if I didn't take something for it ......I have to take one Norco table when I go to bed , this sometimes sees me through the night at other times it won't and I have to take another half ....it's all ups and downs ......there has been time when I have been perfectly fine at bedtime and I must say then I don't even think about taking anything but this is rare at the moment as I am away in Sicily for the winter and the weather is cold .....yes they are having a bad winter and I am sure cold adds to your pain to....
Just hope when I get back home things get better ......I hope also you can find a common denominator as this seems to be hard to achieve ......best of luck Beryl
