Yes I have been researching and reading it will grow back but the issue is we need to stay on these steroids for years so how much will come out during that time and thats a long long time waiting for it grow back. This PMR is just awful! - every day something new to worry about.

@abbeyc, A friend and I have a saying about waking up to something new: What fresh hell is this? Yes, Prednisone is awful, but necessary. I think I had all of the side effects, but hated losing my hair. My hair almost grew back the way it was before taking the Prednisone. A friend is not so lucky. She has three wigs she wears. I could not do this because my scalp burns. It takes time, but your hair should grow back. With all good wishes, @joybringer1
