I’m Not Responding to Prednisone and I Need Advice
Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) | Last Active: Nov 24, 2023 | Replies (72)Comment receiving replies
My rheumatologist always told me to taper only when my pain level was gone or at a low level that was acceptable. For me that was generally below a 1 on my pain scale. He also suggested I keep a daily pain log for my pain level when waking up along with the dosage for that day. Do you keep a pain log?

No pain log, but I've been trying to put together a chronology of PMR progression. I'll include info on pain, but until now, the pain has been pretty constant.
Right now I'm typing with two hands, but for most of this year I've typed with one. My left arm hasn't been working.
