If you saw it on this site, it's likely to be the one by Kate Gilbert, 'Polymyalgia Rheumatica and Giant Cell Arteritis: a survival guide, which is available direct from PMRGCAuk pmrgcauk.com or on Amazon. All royalties from sales are donated to the Charity.

The NE booklet has also been mentioned recently too Celtic - Kate's isn't a booklet, it's a book!

"Living with PMR & GCA" had this recommendation from an author with complicated GCA&PMR.

Have just read "Living with PMR and GCA", a new booklet by North East Support. It really is superb - a book for patients written by patients who know what sufferers are going through and need to know. Cannot praise it highly enough. Wish I'd had it when I was first diagnosed with GCA five years ago.

Award Winning Author and Journalist.

It is still available and it has now had a third re-print.

PMRpro co-authored it.

Kate's book it is entirely different.
