Has anyone thought of trying hypnosis therapy to help with the pain

 and depression.
This forum has been a huge help to me. I thank everyone for sharing. It's so good not to be alone in the struggle  I'm 72 and have been plagued with PMR for  over 2.5 years. I used to walk  three miles a day and work in my garden and enjoy life. It's all such a struggle and so depressing at times. I'm still able to volunteer delivering  meals. I just push myself.  I exercise in a therapy pool 3 times a week, but find to be in more pain  the next day. I tried physical therapy to increase muscle strength... that made things actually worse. I'm having a hard time getting below 5 mg of prednisone. Each time I try the pain gets worse. Also, thank you Ragnar for your ideas about reducing prednisone slowly.
