Hi Shar- It is good to hear from you. I hope your eye exam went well. Have you tapered the Prednisone any lower? I am down to 12/11 mg. Next week it will be 11/10. I think at 10 mg things happen, my doctor wants me to slow it to every other week after that. Actually, I feel somewhat better, but turns out I had a kidney infection for several months and became really ill this January. I think that's whay I lost weight. But guess what- I have gained it all back since I have recovered from the infection. There is a test for Lyme Disease. Mine was negative, but I heard that 40 percent of the tests sre false negatives. My rheumatologist thinss I have PMR; I think my doctor does too, along with the Lyme. He has ordered monthly sedrates. I also notice that no two days are alike. One day can I can feel really bad (aches etc)- and the next is much better for no reason that I can figure. I was never notified that I had a post. I just check the site every day they are not down. Hope you feel better. Best wishes, Ida
