I have been doing an ultra conservative wean over months and got down to 3 mg. A period of stress caused a flare up and I went back up to 5mg. This is my 3rd round of PMR all about 11 years apart. My current challenge is lower leg muscle weakness, and feeling unsteady. Not the vertigo type, just the feeling my legs cannot be trusted. I have lost my balance a number of times, but managed not to fall. At 78 hrs young with osteopenia I am finding I am Confidence in myself, something I have never experienced before. Suddenly feeling rather old and doddery. Would love to hear from others and their experience. I am speaking with my doctor in a week or so but I think my main concern is is this temporary due to prednisone or is this a degenerative part of the disorder and prednisone ?
