Hello again - i wanted to comment on your comment:
"This forum is great, I don't want to bore my concerned family and friends, but I need to vent and to get some answers."
But Please do spread awareness among your group of friends /family - i bet most will say - what? never heard of this ! The symmetrical pain and sudden onset may happen to them or soemone else they know some day . Or what happened to me is that i found out my cousin had PMR about 10 yrs ago and a distant friend also has it now. I sent many a Christmas card with the link PMRandyou.com. i also like this figure from the 2020 review Lundberg et al

You are right.
Everyone knows of my plight, I just don't want to inundate them with my woes. Most are shocked to see this Type A so depleted. All my projects are on an indefinite hold.
All of my friends and family have been great and supportive.
My empathy has always guided me, but my God, this malady has certainly opened my eyes to the suffering all around us.
The kindness of people is overwhelming and so appreciated.
Through it all, I remain a grateful and optimistic woman.
Just a bit weary. 😉
