My RA is young BUT very thorough -- I was down to 5 mg of prednisone -- last visit I mentioned pain now in my hips and tops of both legs -- prednisone was increased to 7.5 mg -- got a feeling it will be increased again ?? -- my RA had the temple biopsy done as a precaution -- came back negative ----- the RA did mention increased cases of PMR in our area

My PMR symptoms stopped but gave way to symptoms of Giant Cell Arteritis - head and neck pain, trouble seeing out of one eye, and anemia. Did the increase to 7.5 mg help your symptoms go away?
