Muscle Arthritis Is Being Treated By Injections And Tablets. Had Bowel Surgery. What Is The Disease Called?

My 76 year old female friend is in hospital with muscle arthritis which is being treated by injections and tablets. Her dr. says it can last up to two years. Before being admitted to hospital she could not get out of bed. She had major bowel surgery two weeks before the first symptoms started and worsened over four weeks. What is this disease?
