PMR / Prednisone - Fatigue

Posted , 16 users are following.

I was diagnosed three months ago with pmr. I am currently taken 10 mg of prednisone and the pain and weakness is almost non-existent. The most serious symptom is faigue and tired all the time. I have to really force myself to stay active.

I would appreciate feedback on fatigue and tiredness. Is it a symptom of pmr or a side effect of prednisone?
