Yes, I had been seeing a rheumatologist for fibromyalgia and osteoporosis, then new symptoms and Polymyalgia Rheumatica has been diagnosed. If you can see one, I think it is a good idea to ask questions about your condition and discuss treatment and options.

Hi @chanciesmommy2018, I see that you have been a member for awhile but this is your first post so I just wanted to jump in and welcome you to Connect. I'm sorry to hear that you joined the PMR club along with your other conditions. Mine has been in remission for about 5 years so far and I'm hoping it stays that way. You are so right about it being a good idea to ask questions about your condition and discuss treatment options. You have to be your own advocate.

How long ago did your Polymyalgia Rheumatica symptoms start? Are you on a tapering plan for prednisone?
