I was diagnosed with PMR ten years before I was diagnosed with RA. I can definitely tell the difference as the PMR mostly affects my shoulders, neck and hips and it may or may not flare the same time as the RA. I am also hypothyroid and when I finally got that dosage correct it really helped a lot with my energy.

Best of luck with your upcoming appointment 😊
