Exciting research news from PMR&GCA UK North East Support
You may remember that last year PMR&GCA UK North East Support conducted a survey on 'Your Ears', which looked at the incidence of ear-related symptoms in GCA patients, using PMR patients as comparisons. As a result of this, the Research & Development section of Queen Elizabeth Hospital Gateshead NHS Foundation Trust is to undertake further research into the subject. They need at least 300 people with GCA, PMR or both to participate and it would be excellent if you could please share details with your group members. For full information, including how to participate, please see: http://www.pmr-gca-northeast.org.uk/assets/pmr_resource_64.pdf
