Hello @jproctor, Welcome to Connect. There is a brief period where new members can't post links. We do this to deter spammers and keep the community safe. Here is the study you mentioned in your post:

Polymyalgia rheumatica and the risk of stroke: a three-year follow-up study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22057203/

My PMR is currently in remission. Do you also have PMR?

Thanks John. I have had PMR since March 2021 when I was crippled with this disease. Managing OK with prednisone and dietary restrictions. I know well now that when I eat the wrong foods I’ll suffer the next day. Currently on 7 mg after starting on 15. How long have you been in remission?
