Thanks John…. I am on 5mg. of prednisone, the dose I’ve stayed at for about 5 months now. Started at 15mg. about 18 months ago.
I totally agree about the exercise…with colder weather I am walking less and noticing more pain.
Thanks for info and the link with more info about PT for PMR.

Physical therapy has helped me with PMR. Specific exercises to target my issues were addressed. For example, some exercises to improve balance, and exercises to strengthen the specific muscles involved in PMR have been beneficial to me. PT has helped me direct my exercise in a positive direction.
