Hello Dr,
I am a 50 year old woman who has a full life with work and family. I now know i have polymyalgia which can be very uncomfortable and a little distressing at times. What is the best way for me to handle my job expectations working with children in a school? Any suggestions on management with regards to work and in general would be appreciated. Thankyou Michelle
