Polymyalgia rheumatica: a general practice experience.
In the eight years from April 1974 to April 1982, 10 diagnoses of polymyalgia rheumatica were made in an urban general practice. The natural history of the condition, diagnostic problems and occasional unpredictability of outcome are discussed. It is suggested that general practice research may provide answers to some unsolved questions.
