I'm sorry but I'm really not sure anyone here can answer your question - because this forum is about polymyalgia rheumatica which is a disorder in its own right and is not the same as palindromic rheumatoid arthritis with polymyalgic onset. You need to be on a rheumatoid arthritis forum I'm afraid.
