Thanks Terri. Yes I have been diagnosed. The problem now seems to be finding the right dosage. I appreciate your response and I will try the tylenol.

Hi @infiniteree, Do you mind sharing what how much prednisone you started on? There is another discussion which you might find helpful -- PMR Dosages and Managing Symptoms: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/pmr-dosages/

I think the recommended starting dose is between 12.5 and 25 mg prednisone. I started at 20 mg for both occurrences I had of PMR.
