It’s ok to whine… you have suffered for years. The only meds that truly improved my QOL were “burst prednisone” or Vicodin. So sorry you are in the pits.

Welcome @copeterson, I 110% agree it's OK to whine when it comes to PMR or chronic pain. @jerseyjames I'm hoping your rheumy gives you a little slack. While they are the experts, we are the ones with the pain and listening is a two way street.

@copeterson, Is your PMR in remission? Have you made any lifestyle changes to help with PMR?
