I have been plagued with this for over 5 months, but just diagnosed last week. Put on 40 mg of Prednisone last Monday and it's a 160 degree change for me. Improvement started the next day with progress right up to this morning. It was debilitating and now I feel positive and that this will be manageable. Focus on the positive, difficult I know. I am 72 in March and am toying with the idea of returning to retirement as I had returned to the work force last April 2021. We will see after I get this balanced out. All the best to you my friend.

I have vivid memory of the wonderful relief that the original does of Prednisone gave. Happy that you've been diagnosed and found the same relief.
