You absolutely should see a rheumatologist. I was diagnosed 15 years ago by my cardiologist. I did some research and living in NY discovered that the Hospital for Special Surgery had rheumatologists who specialize in PMR. I saw him every month for a year for blood work; my inflammatory marker dropped from a hundred to single digits where it has remained. Do see a specialist; don't live in pain. This is a treatable condition.
