Abstract
A patient who presented with bilateral adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder, oligoarthropathy and rapidly progressive proximal myopathy is described. Although clinically euthyroid, autoimmune and biochemical hypothyroidism was the only predisposing factor found. Clinical deterioration after initiation of thyroxine replacement was followed by delayed improvement with reduction in initially elevated ESR and CRP.Entities:
