Understanding and Managing Polymyalgia Rheumatica
If you have been diagnosed with Polymyalgia Rheumatica (PMR) it can be a challenging and painful time. In our live online event, Rheumatologist Dr Pauline Habib and Exercise Physiologist Robyn Yin will discuss how both of their specialties can assist those who have been diagnosed with PMR. They will cover how the diagnosis is made as well as how it can be best managed both in the short and long term.
In our first event covering this topic, our facilitators hope to cover the following:
- How is PMR diagnosed? And what about Giant Cell Arteritis?
- What are the treatment options for those diagnosed with PMR?
- Steroids and Medication Management
- Exercise Management: Can it help?
- Specific Exercise Recommendations for those with PMR
Attend our first live virtual event for 2023 on 8pm Wednesday 18th January
Like all of our lifestyle events, we will welcome questions and discussion so we can all hear and learn from each other.
