Sam says, as someone managing polymyelgia rheumatica or PMR, I'd love to know, is there any overlap between how the brain processes fibromyalgia pain and how it handles chronic inflammation from conditions like PMR?
Does this research offer any hope for better non-steroid treatments for PMR in the future?

Yes, different entities, but we should point out that I have been saying we should do something on PMR.
So watch this space.
Yeah,

Hannah says, I have recently found out that I carry the Huntington's disease gene in the low penetrance range.
