Hello Sharon,

Welcome to the NeuroTalk Support Groups.

You've certainly had a terrible start to the year and I'm very sorry to read that but it sounds as if your positive mindset will help you in the future.

There are older posts on the forums for both Polymyalgia and Giant Cell Arteritis. You may have found them already but if not, you can use the
Forum Search Feature

There is also a Chronic Pain Forum

I'm sure other members here will have more information for you, but I just wanted to say hello and that it's great to have you here.

take care.
