It is up to each and everyone of us to contact ITV or Dr.Chris to put our case forward re PMR/GCA it is no use just one person trying to do it alone. So to-day make a resolution to send an e mail if enough of us shout we may get somewhere. Thanks

Well spoken...I totally agree with what you say. I'll certainly be writing to ITV Good Morning regarding this matter when perhaps in the near future we will be watching a slot with Dr Chris addressing this debilitating illness PMR/GCA.

I sincerely hope that others with this debilitating illness do the same.

My experience of TV talking about PMR & GCA is, to date, they always get it wrong and this included one of the BBC hopsital soaps. So make sure when writing they get a top class researcher who is currently working on PMR & GCA to go on the programme.
