I don’t believe Lyme causes PMR. I was walking around with severe pain for months before the elevated sed rate and CRP showed up in my blood work. I’m on 1/2 mg now and do have pain in upper arms and shoulders. I am not going back on prednisone unless it becomes unbearable. It’s caused other issues for me.

But you don't know correct? I have no sed elevated sed rate and their is ample research linking the too. In addition most doctors will tell you we know very little about lyme. I have all the classic symptoms of PMR and had a nasty jolt of lyme about 4 years ago. Will find out as I've been accepted to the Johns Hopkins clinic studying lyme disease. Will post the results later in the year as I find out.
