Xeloda/Cape-Hand/Foot & Essential Oil Help
For those experiencing sore feet with cape: I had responded to BettyBucket with info about Topical Heparin Gel, but now also have some info about essential oil use for help if you need it. I realize not everyone believes in essential oil use, or has a stock....but for those who are interested, after

Roller Coaster Ride
I haven’t been very present in the group this last week. It’s been a very up and down time. Briefly I’ve had an awful time, feeling confused, exhausted and abandoned. One doctor on a telephone call upped my pred dose from 15 to 30, increased my painkillers for the better. After several bad nights both

painkiller recommendations?
hi all, I hope everyone is okay. I’ve been struggling with chronic daily pain, I have severe endo which has caused one of my kidneys to fail and so I have a stent in my left kidney to help it drain. This contributes to my pain but it is mainly a deep ache in my hip, pelvis and abdomen which I’m sure

Feeling a bit down. Slipped disc and just been told that I should start treatment soon.
The start to 2023 has not been great for me. Diagnosed with an L5/S1 prolapse last week. The sciatic pain has literally had me in spasms on our sofa, unable to speak. I am on a cocktail of painkillers and see the consultant next Tuesday to decide on options. I know that I can't continue with this level

It Is NOT just Prednisolone
I have just posted this on another thread. How our bodies and muscles in particular, react to this drug is critical to the way we need to address dosage and approach. Here is my take on how this condition moulds us and progresses. Confusing symptoms occur and they are similar to many conditions so

wrong diagnosis - paying the price **update**
Consultant visit this evening- almost certain PMR but
pain
in wrists/hands more like inflammatory
arthritis
(I’m not convinced as I’ve read enough on here and on internet that many people with PMR do have problems with their wrists and hands!).

? increase Pred
I have just come back from skiing, which I only did for a couple of days we were away and didn't over do it at all. I feel sore all over, bilaterally and pain killers don't make a difference so I am assuming it is polymyalgia. I am exhausted too and just had a row with my daughter over babysitting (

Hi, this is very random but I’ve been suffering from leg pain and weakness for a couple days now. My work involves standing all day and I’m usually exhausted every day but recently the last few days my legs have been killing. I’ve tried different pain killers and they only provide very small relief

Doctor makes it seem like I want to have surgery and not like I actually need it
After struggling with severe constant daily pain for a year and a half, a gynaecologist has decided to put me on a waiting list for surgery. I didn't go see him requesting to be put on a list, but he thought it'd be a good idea because hormonal treatment hasn't worked, and painkillers don't help. However

Rib pain
I have suffered with rib pain & pain top of my stomach since menopause 5 years ago. I have been to my gp but still no wiser as to what is causing the discomfort. I have tried heat pads & pain killers but neither helps. It’s affecting my mood lately & feel really fed up. Does anyone else have the same

sciatica
Hi I suffer from arthritis but for the last 4 weeks I've been unable to stand for more than 4 mins at a time before the pain in my leg is so excruciatingly painful that I have to lie down with my legs up. I have diagnosed this as sciatica and when I spoke to my doctor she agrees with me but as I have

Swelling & severe pain in toe
Hi, Does anyone else suffer with swelling and excruciating pain in their toe(s) during a elongated flare up? I currently have severe swelling, redness and pain in my second toe - to the point where socks are hurting it - and lets be honest, no socks is not a possible answer in this weather... Walking

Itching with RLS

Sudden severe back pain
I am seeing a neuro physio. I have explained that I am experiencing an increase in body pain over last eighteen months. She has given me exercises. On Thursday, I experienced sudden severe back pain, so severe that I couldn't walk. I was crying out when I moved. I have no recollection of injuring myself
