PMR - How will I know I am in remission?

My understanding is once you’ve been diagnosed with PMR you will always have it but it does go into remission and can flare at a later time. I’ve had 2 occurrences 6 years apart and it has been in remission for 4 years now.

Thank you for your reply. Any ideas about what causes a flare after years of remission?

Thanks John. I am newly diagnosed with PMR and so grateful to have found this support group blog. How long did each of your occurrences last?
