PMR and exercise: What helps you?

Reading your comments I thought I was reading about myself. When I can, I do stretches and they actually feel good. I also “try” to power walk every day. Since being diagnosed with PMR some days are a stroll, some are power walking and some I cannot. Basically, I go hour to hour.
Over this weekend the pain in my hips were so awful that I could not even shuffle. My daughter suggested taking CBD( without THC) tincture. I tried 1/2 a dropper of a 1200 mg bottle every 8 hours.
After about 1 1/2 hr the pain subsided. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this will continue to help. I, too, had to go back up to 20 mg.
Feel better.

Hi Tilly, Thanks for your comments! I am thankful that we can see commonalities in our shared experience with PMR but I am praying that we will both find permanent relief soon. I am trying CBD also and will adopt your dosing strategy. Thanks for sharing that. Blessings!
