Spinal Cord Stimulator and PMR pain
After 10+ years of chronic back pain, resulting from failed spinal surgeries, spinal stenosis and osteoarthritis, I finally opted for Spinal Cord Stimulator implant with Boston Scientific System. I am happy to report my chronic back pain has been reduced by 65%. Eureka! All was well, as I continued

4 months and no answers!
Heads up: this is a vent post about how much this SUCKS! OK, so the story is, I’ve been off work for the past 4 months with exertional breathlessness and no cause. They know my heart is involved, but every single cardiac test (stress test, CPCA, halter, PET/CT, cardiac MRI) has come back normal. CPET

diagnosis doubts
I was diagnosed with limited systemic scleroderma 4 years ago with the usual positive ANA blood tests. But I still have difficulty believing the diagnosis – there is nothing visible! (apart from Raynauds which I've had for 30 years). My main symptom is non-absorbance of nutrition – I have lost a stone

Side Effects of Niraparib (ZEJULA)?
While I await the results of my genetic test to see if I have the DNA repair defect to allow me to participate in the AMPLITUDE clinical trial, I have been looking at the SEs for Niraparib and they don’t look very pleasant, so I wondered if anyone has used it and has personal experience to share?

Honouring the Divine Masculine
Harnessing the power of Sun. Surya is Sanskrit for Sun. Surya Namaskar - salutation to the Sun. We recently moved though Summer Solstice here in the Northern Hemisphere. 21st June 2022. A potent day. How fitting too that Fathers Day falls so very close to Summer Solstice.. The longest day of light.

Has anyone had a similar journey?
Hello everyone, My name is Mac and I’ve been struggling with various health complaints for a couple of years. In December 2021 they got particularly bad, and I’ve basically had a consistent low to middle grade fever for 7 months straight. My muscles and joints are all quite sore and after a day of work

I'm getting a Spinal Cord Stimulator in Two weeks.
Hi, I'm new here. In 2 weeks I get a permanent SCS implant, and am so excited . I had the 7 day trial application, and to my astonishment, was relatively pain free for the first time in 10 years. Are there any others here with the SCS? My other chronic illness is PMR, which I developed in 2013.

interpreting my blood test results
Hello again I posted here about a month ago, and received really useful information about what blood tests for hypothyroidism should reveal. I have now had the results of the tests, which are quite lengthy, but do not seem to have any information on T3 and T4 levels. Please could some wise person comment

Feel lost
Hi all just looking for some advice if possible please. Has anyone had lupus diagnosed without a positive ana ? I have all the symptoms aside from swelling but the rheumatologist has now diagnosed fibromyalgia due to no positive ana. My liver enzymes have been raised since 2014 and I've been having symptoms

Heart rate over 100. Should I lower or up my Levo??
Hi I was wondering if someone had any advice on whether or not I should lower or up my Levo dose? I had upped from 100mg to 112.5 mg beginning of June, but my heart-rate just keeps going over 100bpm when I’m not doing anything. I’m still tired and feel as if I just can’t be bothered. I’ve been sitting
