Think this has been posted before- but always good to see again as a reminder.

Carol used to come to our local meetings, but haven’t seen her for some time, it would be nice to hear from her again if she’s still on this forum.

She’s not the only one to make the tabloids though. Pleased to say Pred weight now disappeared.

Until I was diagnosed with PMR I had never heard about pmr or GCA.

No me neither, nor lots of others on here. Unfortunately, nine years on, it’s still not very well publicised in GPs surgeries or hospitals. That’s why this charity and forum is so important.
