For those of you with GCA, what is your maintenance dosage of predinisone? A bit late in my PMR journey, I may be acquiring that extra bit of trouble :x . Many thanks for your help, and may we all have more good days than bad.

    Hello Lizzie

    I wouldnt despair for now I think you are underestimating what all the stress you have been under has done to you

    I always think when you are under stress you keep going and collapse after it and thats what you are doing now !! Pamper yourself for a while and then do as Mrs K says clear the decks and have another go !!

    Youve got to catch me up again as you had overtaken me at one time !! Just got to 2mg but yet another throat infection so wont be doing anything too drastic yet

    Best wishes

    Mrs G

    Eileen,

    That's so obvious (1/2) I think I might have to go off you :lol: :lol: And Mrs G I'm really chuffed for you - 2mg :magic: well done. I'm off to bed with a hottie and a bit of superfluous chick lit :zen:

    Love from Lizzie xx
