I enjoyed this article, however, I generally like re-reading (and having) such reference material available... you may find it rudimentary.

This is one of my bookmarked files - together with the Quick paper ,they really are recommended reading for any GPs who need educating about PMR and GCA.
I agree with that. If only my GP had read it. I still shudder when I think he apparently had never heard of GCA and that it was 4 months before I got to see a rheumatologist. It's disgraceful that people are still losing their sight because of this kind of ignorance. Well, he's retired and I can't pretend that I miss him.
Very clear, thank you for posting.
