So grateful to you for your response..THANK YOU

I was diagnosed with Pmr in July 2019, per high crp and sed rates. It took the Dr 5 months to come to that conclusion. My extreme pain began almost suddenly the prior January. I struggled getting out of bed and movement was very painful. My sister had warned me of our family history of PMR, when she was diagnosed a few years before me and our father also struggled with it late in life. We're both in our 60's. I was treated with prednisone for 2 years but I also have GCA. So I got off prednisone in 2021 after starting Actemra treatments 6 months before tapering off prednisone. I'm in my 4th year of Actemra infusions, tapering down to an infusion every 3 months. I still have shoulder, neck and hip pain, soreness, but I take Tylenol to get through the days. I feel best when I walk or ride bike, just keep moving. The couch is not your friend. Thank you for your help and for listening. Good luck to us all.
