I've started a blog to detail my own fight against PMR and my adventures with the wonder drug Prednisolone. It's here http://prednisolone.blogspot.com/2011/11/how-it-begins.html If anyone has any comments please leave them. I'll be adding to the blog frequently.
My husband declined Prednisone treatment - diagnosed with PMR in December. SED rate was 20. Treating only with naturapathic treatments. Pain under control, inflammation reduced, SED rate now at 12. Mobility issues improving greatly. It had been severe to point he was unable to raise from bed or chair by himself. Now can do both easily.
I read some of your blog and found it well-written and honest and moving. Are you still on no pred?
Hi Debbie,
Yes my husband is still maintaining his decision to try to heal his body without the use of Prednisone. While he still is dealing with some inflammation in his body he continues to slowly improve.
