I'm at a loss as to what I should do.
Posted , 14 users are following.
Was diagnosed with pmr a year ago by my family doctor, was put on 15mg prednisone and my entire life changed, the pain was gone and my quality of life restored. Was sent to a rheumatologist to confirm diagnosis and was
Told there was nothing wrong with me and to discontinue prednisone. My
gp agreed to keep me on it.Here's the problem, my gp now wants me to
taper down to 5mg. About the same time as the pmr diagnosis I also started having problems with my eyes, blurred and double vision, this condition
has gotten quite badand I'm really struggling with my vision. I have been
checked out by eye specialist and mri and told nothing is wrong. I'm at the end of my rope and just don't know what to do. The tapering of the prednisone is not going well as the pain is all coming back again, and I just can't
keep going through this. I feel like the doctors don't believe me and have no where to turn. I know that I can not go back to living a life of existence
only. Is there any one out there that can help me?
