Hi, I was looking for this.
My pain is only in my legs.
Needed help getting up from a chair, out of the car, getting dressed.
The diagnosis took long because of the location.
Prednison worked within a day

Yep. My rheumatologist kept saying that he wasn’t convinced this was PMR because I wasn’t presenting classically. I said buddy I’m as classic as you get. Lol. Like you the proof was in the prednisone working immediately. My sed and c reactive were also both well over 100.

Since cold weather hit I am in extreme pain from arthritis. Is this part of PMR or RA?
