Feel about the same in the am. So far all the pain is gone but I’m still on 9 mg of Prednisone. Just started with 15 mg in September so I have awhile to go. Every time I get some new symptom, I worry about getting the GCA sister of PMR. I have slight headaches along with runny nose but they never get worse - think it’s probably winter allergies. My eyes get irritated but I think it’s due to my corneas being roughed up as per my eye doctor. Just had cataract surgery in both eyes so it takes awhile to get back to normal. I just hate all the uncertainties but that’s life. Stay strong and well.

Thank you for reinforcing the dietary. How are you feeling overall? How long have you had pmr? How much pred are you on? I see doc in a few hours to see if sed rate has gone down.

Ah yes, the craving for food, especially sweets! I keep dates and walnuts around all the time. The dates satisfy that craving for sweets and do have good fiber, and the walnuts really help satisfy that feeling of hunger.
