Dr Mayet has been brilliant concerning my care during a very difficult time with polymyalgia rheumatic. Initially I was not the easiest of patients primarily because I was terrified of taking steroids, given their appalling reputation. However regular blood tests and consultations helped to calm me down, and although taking steroids is not the most wonderful of experiences, with Dr Mayet's encouragement I was able to reduce the dosage significantly. My main criticism, which I discussed with Dr Mayet was that there was no guidance available at the surgery regarding steroids in the same way that diabetic and asthmatic patients receive extra support. I feel this would have been very helpful in the initial stages.
