I too have recently been diagnosed with PMR and am on Prednisone which has helped dramatically. At first I had no pain in the trunk of my body. It started in the neck and then legs and went up the body to the arms. I have pain in the back between my shoulder blades. Last week I went to an exercise physiologist and physical therapist and they came up with an exercise program. I am feeling pretty good. Never without some soreness of course. I hate having to take this Prednisone because of the weight gain.
