I am beginning my 1/2 mg the end of this week. I do have shoulder, upper arm pain and my one hand. I take tylenol some nights, and it helps a little. I'm determined, as long as my blood tests stay normal to not go back on this Prednisone. Pain is not great but neither is my bone density and blood sugars on this. I may have no choice at some point but for now, I'm going to stay where I am. Exercise helps, and I'll continue with my walking. I see the Rheumatologist in 3 more weeks so I will see what the blood tests show. I do think it's odd that more people are getting this. My husband sees it in his patients. Strange.
