John how much turmeric do you take? I have started my first relapse. I purchased the Dr.Wahls book and have started her diet. I am back on 20 mg. of prednisone. I was on 8mg. Needless to say very disappointed. I had company Christmas and got outside in cold to much. To much stress. I have been taking 1000mg for 6 months of turmeric. Any other suggestions to keep from having another relapse? Thanks, Sue

@123suew, I take 1 tbsp daily of Qunol Liquid Turmeric which is 1000mg. Sorry to hear your PMR flared up. I think the turmeric helps with inflammation but I don't think it's going to do much if your PMR is active but that's just my non medical opinion. I think diet does play a big part and will help keep PMR at bay once it goes into remission and you are off of prednisone. I think stress and over exertion can make it worse. Have you seen this article from Medical News Today from 2018? It offers some suggestions that might help.
