    I am eager to hear how this goes for you.  It took a year to diagnose me and two rounds of what we here in the states call physical therapy.  In fact, I recall at one session I was lying next to a woman who mentioned she had Polymyalgia Rheumatic and all the symptoms and I thought, hmmm, that sounds familiar.  They kept thinking it was fybromyalgia but finally sorted it out with blood tests that showed a sky high SED rate and high Creactive protein.  The exercises did help some but my favorite was always the final massage to loosen up my shoulders and all.  Good luck!
