Hi @wedgyjackson, I had symptoms of pain and stiffness throughout my body, PMR, not diagnosed. Then I had a very stiff neck with pain extending to the back of my head on the left and right sides. Also a tender scalp, when I touched it, dry cough that started in the evenings, terrible fatigue, and an itchy torso for a couple of weeks, at night, no rash. I had short stabbing pains from my ear to my nose on the right side of my face, and problems seeing out of my right eye a few times. The symptoms came and went, but the neck/head pain was constant. I was diagnosed with GCA following a temporal artery biopsy and started on 40 mg prednisone, tapering down 5 mg every two weeks, then less when I was at 10 mg. I've been off prednisone about a year. I still get neck and shoulder pain, but it's due to rotator cuff problem and arthritis.
