Thank you. Yes I plan to ask my doctor next week. good luck to you as well. I hope not too. I had significant stress once the PMR started due to the pain and trying to figure it all out. so I was thinking maybe that's what caused it but I'm concerned it might be the Prednisone also.

Tell me about the stress level. I didn't know what the pain was for 5 months from mid-August to end of December and then was diagnosed on Jan. 4/22 (short story). Been on 20mg of Prednisone for just over a month with huge results. Start back to work part-time tomorrow. Had to stop mid-November because I just couldn't do it. Everyone's story is similar, but unique. Good luck on your journey. Take care. ~ Deb
