Rheumatologist diagnosis
Hi My Rheumy says my PMR is atypical with a normal CRP . My ESR is 39 . Which she believes is normal and it’s due to my weight - 14 stone . Wants to refer me to physio, this will be excruciating .

Sorry, slightly off topic. I do my daughters B12 injections for her, she has a needle phobia. She has just come out of hospital since an operation and is required to have 42 days of blood thinning injections, which I do each day at 7pm. There are some days where I really cannot be available.. she

ET JAK2+ for 18 months. Had sensitive liver reaction to all 3 primary drug treatments, recent one since March is peginterferon at 67 units per week. Liver enzymes started creeping up again (coincidently?) since getting flu and Covid shots two weeks apart in September. Also started taking 175 mg daily
