I use turmeric in everything and take a capsule every morning for over a year. It has done nothing for the flare ups. I know it's supposed to be help with inflammation, but I haven't seen improvement. I have a few weeks left on Prednisone being down to 2 mg. Some nights are not great, and I feel like a vampire.
Welcome @doneville1, It definitely is nice to be retired when dealing with PMR. Tapering can be difficult sometimes when it comes to PMR and prednisone. There is another discussion you might find helpful:

It sounds like you are eating healthy to help the PMR. Do you try to get some exercise of some sort in daily?
