Hi @camie16, Welcome to Connect. Sorry to hear you have PMR pain. How long have you had PMR? Can you share a little more about your diagnosis and treatment?

It began 3 days after my fourth covid shot. I suspect I already had it and the vaccine caused a flair.
I have begun weaning from 16 mg of methylprednisolone to 8 mg. Two weeks ago I added a weekly Creator for inflammation(not prescribed). Three days ago I added Curcumin 500 with Bioperine. The only grain I consume is 6 tablespoons of oatmeal daily. Other than that I have no changes in diet. I do milk exercises both day and at night when I wake up. In addition to inflammatory markers I am going to use the exercises for diagnostic purposes. I have no pain or soreness when at rest.
