Yeah, I've wished that too. Maybe not the people closest to me because they've mostly been pretty good. And with them, I try to remember to mention it if I'm having a relatively good day in addition to saying when it's really bad. My partner has polymyalgia and I appreciate it when she tells me she's feeling a little better.

But doctors--%&*$ yes! And I would never tell any of them I felt better unless they were on the verge of curing me.
