It came on so suddenly and I was on a very low dose then. I had tests every few months, sed rate etc. I assumed it was just a build up after 4 years triggered by cortisone shot in knee—turns out steroids from that get into the system, though that doc didn’t inquire about past steroid use and I think he should have. Is yours gone now? I have a little ways to go, but only off steroids for 5 weeks. Was told will take time. Listed as side effect of steroids. Grateful wasn’t something worse.

I also had cortisone shots in the knees. However was prescribed prednisone for PMR before the steroid myopathy appeared.
