Hi @grammlyn, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. There are no stupid questions! PMR is polymyalgia rheumatica. My rheumatologist described it as arthritis all over the body. Mayo Clinic has some information that describes the condition here:
-- https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/polymyalgia-rheumatica/symptoms-causes/syc-20376539

Are you looking for any specific type of health information or do you have any questions you are trying to get answered?
