As an alert to others. I have had PMR for over 2 years and do take Prednisone. Recently I tore my meniscus and developed a Baker's Cyst in my left leg, then after Rehab I tore the meniscus and developed a Baker's Cyst on my right leg. The opinion is when you have a painful, inflammatory disease and there is joint involvement, you are bound to be moving in an abnormal manner to protect the joints that hurt. This puts stress on the other joints taking the load. We need to analyze how we are moving and walking and might need to talk to a physical therapist about having a gait (walk) study done. Good luck to the rest of you. Carole
