My neck was also very sore, had terrible sinus issues, dry cough and currently can’t regain any of my weight back. I’ve lost over 25+lbs and skin is sagging from the loss muscle. Always worked out so I’m also trying to gain it back but learned yesterday that you can easily overdo it. I think the diagnosis is PMR for now. I was also put on 40 mg but after almost 2 months I’m down to 15. I’ve changed my diet to no gluten, limited amount of sugarl, lots of protein, fats and veggies. I recommend reading The Autoimmune Solution” by Amy Myers. This diet however is not going to add weight so I add on extra smoothies etc between meals. Going in for DEXA scan soon and very scared at what that will tell me.
