Thank you for the well wishes Teri! I wish you vibrant health and healing as well as we traverse this path.

I’m the sole survivor of my nuclear family but none of them experienced anything like this. I didn’t have an illness that preceded the onset, but I had high stress factors for years in various positions I held before I retired. I think my having PMR is just the luck of the draw. Almost everyone who lives to old age has to contend with something, and right now I’m dealing with this. I’m not sure I can control when it goes into remission. I follow all the positive recommendations to the best of my ability and think someday it may switch off as it switched on. I do practice deep breathing, and I relax more, and I sleep well now. I also take Zinc Picolinate and Vitamin C to give my immune system a boost. I’m trying to help my immune system heal.
