Yes, I’m lucky to have a daughter who is a PT. She will not treat me (which I totally understand) but often will offer direction & guidance. The balance issue at this point is more annoying causing me to pay more attention to my body. The stretching routines help.

Hi. I have some balance issues....hard to describe...is it a slight dizziness or lightheadedness...or balance? Anyway it's not severe just annoying but I am pretty sure it's the pred. I also think the inflammation increase from PMR and the other side effects of pred (muscles and tendons) has messed with my already.arthritic joints...so everything feels loose. Know what I mean? Anyway good luck. Be well.
