Hello @chickpea44, Welcome to Connect. It's great to hear your PMR is under control and methotrexate helped. Hopefully the PMR will go into remission as you taper off of prednisone and MTX.

Another thing that helped me in my two occurrences of PMR was keeping a daily pain log and the amount of my prednisone dose while I was tapering. Did your rheumatologist give you a tapering schedule to help?
