PMR & Osteoarthritis in Knees
I have been added to the waiting list for knee replacement. I am trying to loose weight which I feel will help the pain in my knees. They can be very stiff some days and difficult to bend and I do get pain in the back of my thighs and shin splint pain too. I wonder if this is part of PMR ? I would hate

brufen gel and riveroxaban
I’m suffering with
arthritis
and ligament
pain
in back and hip. GP is referring me to orthopaedics but has suggested brufen gel. I asked if it was okay with riveroxaban and he said yes intermittently. Does anyone here on blood thinners use brufen gel?

PMR or PsA or both
My Rheumatologist left the practice and I meet with a new one last week. He says that he is not sure I have PsA but maybe only PMR. Wants me to stop methotrexate immediately and try reducing prednisone my 1 mg a month. Currently are 12.0 mg. Happy about this nut scared too. If he is wrong, when and

How can they really know?
I'm a bit perplexed as to how they can really tell the difference between OA and RA.I have heard of so many people that are told they have RA, to later be told it's OA. My arthritis symptoms have changed somewhat and are affecting other areas of my body and I don't know whether to bother mentioning

Fibromyalgia and Osteoarthritis
Good morning, hope you are all as well as can be. Can anyone tell me if they suffer from both fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis? I was diagnosed fibromyalgia early this year but have now been referred back to Rheumatology due to swelling and ongoing stiffness in my joints. I also suffer with groin pain

Myositis - been wondering for a while if I’m experiencing symptoms of this

I have been wondering for sometime if I’m having symptoms that could be Myositis. I’ve struggled with
