I too have had PMR for over a year. I was glad to read your postings about the fatigue because I am having terrible fatigue. I was at 5 mg for a year but also supplemented with 25 mg vioxx which controled it pretty good but after a year of vioxx I was having pretty severe stomach problems and worried about taking so much of it. I quit vioxx and my symptoms flared up real bad at 5 mg. My rheum won't let me have more than 5mg predisone but I took it upon myself to start again at 20 for a week and go down by 2 1/2 a week. I felt great at 20, mentally and physically. I didn't have too much pain at 7.5 but lots of fatigue. I just started 5 today. after reading your postings I may alternate between 5 and 6 for a week. Anyway it is good to know that the fatigue goes along with it. I was worried about that.Marilyn
