Thank you, John. I have looked at this list before and can't say any of them sounds like a better fit. I am interested in the ANAs of others on this site, just for comparison. I have never had a positive RF. My Lupus test has always vacilated between the positive cut-off and negative. What has been high was my single strand DNA. It started out 9 times the high value and none of the Drs. have a clue what it means. It has gone down over the course of pred treatment, but still over high cut-off. I would like others to share what their's are. I have never had a fever, loss of appitite, joint envolvement, trouble sleeping, (after non-moving pain resolved.) Pred "fixed" me at 20mg at 2 days when I first tried it. This thigh muscle pain fits PMR but no pain in upper half. So what could it be?
