Welcome to our new community!

Hi

I'm Kate Gilbert and I'm the Chair of PMRGCAuk. We are delighted to be collaborating with HealthUnlocked on this new community This charity has only been going for a couple of years, but we are already making a difference to the lives of people with polymyalgia rheumatica and giant cell arteritis. There is so much we don't know about these conditions. Please get active on this site and help us build knowledge and awareness.

From time to time I'll be posting about my own experiences of recovering from PMR. So far I have been off the steroids for two whole years! But getting back to my former level of strength and fitness is hard work.

I'm also going to be blogging about what's going on in the charity - news, views, and experiences of building something from the bottom up. Please let us have your feedback and ideas!
