Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is an inflammatory rheumatic condition that can be difficult to diagnose and treat. For instance, PMR is a diagnosis of exclusion, and it can mimic a wide variety of other conditions. And once a patient is accurately diagnosed, the standard-of-care treatment with glucocorticoids may result in toxicity for some patients. Learn more about these and other diagnostic and treatment challenges as well as other treatment options with Dr. Charles Turck and Dr. William Rigby, Professor of Medicine and of Microbiology and Immunology at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth.

Glucocorticoids are often successfully used as the mainstay of treatment for many inflammatory conditions, but adverse events associated with glucocorticoids use are common. Fortunately, there are steps we can take to reduce the risk of glucocorticoid toxicity, like monitoring patients, educating them on the possible side effects, and considering alternative treatments where available. Tune in to learn more about the side effects, risk factors, and prevention strategies with Dr. Charles Turck and Dr. John Stone.
