PMR, Prednisone, lower leg issues
Posted , 5 users are following.
have worked my way down to 7-1/2m of prednisone...slowly on my way to 7m and the lower leg issues seem worse. Have actually rested more than usual the past two weeks starting this taper.
usually put a pillow between my legs and feet at night, but lately
it is not enough....the discomfort and sensitivity keeps me awake.
It is not leg cramps. They are ok during the day for walking...but if I lie down for a nap I have the same leg issues, but worse at night. I take calcium, VIT D, C, K2, fish oil, multi vitamin. Any suggestions?
I take calcium, VIT D, VIT C, K2, a multiple, fish oil. Thank you!

That is how my legs are...good description, period cramps! I have never tried pain pills...thought pain pills did not work wi PMR. In the morning it is "over", although if I lie down for a nap I only feel discomfort when I try to put one leg on top of the other. I will try the pain pills at night...thanks!??
