Hi @jillrentas, Welcome to Connect. You have made great progress tapering. My first time around it took 3 and half years to taper off. Have you made any lifestyle changes in diet or exercise to help with the PMR?

Hi John - I was unable to exercise much prior to PMR and could only walk on flat ground. However, I was so miserable with PMR, I didn’t exercise. Diet has been the same with no changes. I gained 15 lbs but since I hit 5 mg., I’m losing weight. I eat well and limit sweets and watch my carb intake.
