Publisher's Synopsis
Polymyalgia rheumatica is an inflammatory disorder that causes muscle pain and stiffness in various parts of the body.
PMR (polymyalgia rheumatica) is a little-known member of the infamous family of auto-immune disorders. The fact that it is little-known can make it more difficult to get a diagnosis and find patient-focused information and support for new sufferers.
This book will help you to:
- address your fears and concerns about your diagnosis of PMR and/or GCA (giant cell arteritis)
- understand what is going on in your body
- get the knowledge and support to manage your illness
- assist your body to recover
Think of it as a PMR first aid manual which will help you to work out what you need to do next.
Or a user manual designed to help you to understand and manage your body on a day-to-day basis as it returns to health.
