Welcome @ralphs, During my first occurrence of PMR I was so happy the prednisone took away the pain that I didn't focus on too much else, especially the stretching and exercise. My second time around with PMR 6 years later I made some changes to lifestyle and diet which the exercise and stretching really helped.

Is your PMR still active? Are you still tapering down on prednisone?

Hi John,
Yes my PMR is still active and I am still tapering off prednisone. I also have found that exercise, diet (no junk foods) and stretching all have helped me. My doctor has been very supportive and has encouraged me through this ordeal.
