I've made it. My tests came back today and they show I am over PMR. However, I still have pain which seems to come from something else. My doctor has ordered rehab to build muscles, which I am not looking forward to. But for now, I couldn't have received a better Christmas present. It's been the hardest 4 1/2 years in my life but it hasn't been all negative. I have learnt to ask for help, a big problem for me in the past. I lost weight that I have been trying to lose for decades. I had no desire to go out during Covid lock down. I learnt patients, also another problem for me.

I know I will still keep reading this discussion and thank you all for the hope you have spread. It really helped. There is an end to it all and I am keeping my fingers crossed for the rest of you. Happy holidays.

Good for you! Just wanted to comment that I never had elevated inflammatory markers in my blood, but I was still diagnosed with PMR due to my overnight pain while in bed. I apparently had such a mild case that it was hard to diagnose. If you improved your health through diet and lifestyle changes, this could be the reason why your inflammatory markers went down. See my previous comments regarding my whole foods diet.
