Feeling tired! Do others with PMR feel significantly more tired?

Hi @mild835, the Moon face is one of the side effects of prednisone. At the higher dosage of prednisone, I noticed a moon face, but it made me look healthier, as my PMR and GCa resulted in anorexia. I was down to 93 lbs. and looked like a little bird. I've been able to gain 10 lbs. On a low dosage of prednisone, my cheeks are filled in and rosy so I don't look like death warmed over anymore.

I'm glad you're turning a negative into a positive. At least my wrinkles are smoothed out. LOL. As far as weight...at the moment it's still the same. Nothing but good vibes for a steady gain in weight for you. ~ Deb
