Hi
Thank you for replying and yes i have both PMR and GCA i have had them together since the beginning although was slower to diagnose GCA, i have had a temporal biopsy. Very difficult as i was finally 3 weeks prednisone free after 3 yrs. I am awaiting my physicians instructions

That must be disappointing. It's about one year for me and I'm just down to 2 mg prednisone from 40 because of GCA. I'm kind of anxious about what the future holds. I don't think anyone really shakes these disorders in a year. When you talk to your rheumatologist would you mind posting what dosage gives you relief? Take care.
