I Have Been Diagnosis With PMR And Waiting Six Weeks

I have been diagnosis with PMR and waiting six weeks to see a rheumatologist (March 9th).
My PCP is treating me with prednisone 20 mg for 2 weeks and reduced to 10 mugs due to excessive sweating and lightheadness. My pain in the shoulders is controlled by the prednisone. I have this pain, swelling behind my left ear going up and under my skull. The pain is constant. Am I in any danger.
