Welcome @judyswanson, Staying active is a plus when having PMR. I think the trick is just not overdoing the activity. I've had 2 occurrences of PMR and it has been in remission now for about 4 years. The second time around with PMR I made a few lifestyle changes and started eating healthier and also exercising more. Staying positive is a good thing with PMR.

Have you made any lifestyle changes to help with your PMR?

Yes. I changed my eating 6 years ago when I went on paleo diet which I have continued. I have adjusted exercising so that I accept that some days I can only do half as much as I can on other days. I am more accepting of those tired days and realized that I had overdone the previous day or two. Learning to accept these varying abilities has been helpful by lowering the general stress
