I’ve had PMR for year and a half and have thankfully tapered down to 4 MG/day over the past month. I found I wasn’t sleeping well due to a combination of random insomnia and occasional shoulder pain, so I took 10mg of melatonin two nights in a row and slept great! Unfortunately by the second day I was in so much shoulder, wrist, back pain I felt like I was back to square one with my PMR. Thank goodness for this discussion thread!!

I didn’t take melatonin last night and I feel 100% better even before taking my prednisone this morning!

Many many thanks to everyone who contributes to these discussions you’re keeping me sane!
