At the moment I am a bit confused about everything as the Dr's have said they have no cure and very little to help so it's making me feel like it's all in my head. I fell and injured my neck, I have three prolapsed disc's to show for it but because my pain is in parts of my body that they say it shouldn't be then they won't treat my neck .
All confusing no matter how you look at it.
Anyway be strong and I hope you can be strong for each other....

If it is PMR then an injection may work for a few weeks but it won't have a lasting effect. If the shoulder/hip pain is bursitis rather than PMR the injections may work for longer.
Do I think it is the right way? As I say, if it is really PMR, then probably not.

But I think you should consider staying on pred until this is forbye. The stress will not be doing your PMR any good and at present you need the mobility and physical help the pred is providing. There is plenty of time later to sort out whether you want oral pred or try something else. At present I think your mum needs you to be on pred.
And avoid the people who haven't got a clue. One day they will know what it is like too. You don't need them in your life at the moment - you have enough to cope with without feeding their egos.

Do try to look after yourself - I know how difficult that is too. If you want to be with your mum - spend all the time sitting there that you can. There is time for everything else afterwards.
Take care.
