Hi great to have people to talk to. I am at the low end of reducing pred down and finding it quite difficult went back up to 2 mg. Now wanting to start down again maybe even by .25 at a time. I wonder is there anything one can do to support the adrenal glands to kick back in ?

Hi @ingekunga, I think your question is a good one and that it helps with any autoimmune condition. I have no medical training or background but what I believe has helped me with keeping my PMR in remission is changing some of my lifestyle habits - eliminating fast foods and processed foods, sugar and getting more exercise. I do have my slip ups though but I do my best to keep away from unhealthy eating habits. Here are some things that may help.
