Change in inhalers
I'm currently on sertide and being switched over to symbicort. I'm not sure of the dosage etc as need to discuss further with gp. I'm a little concerned as been on seretide for years. When I get switched it triggers flares and I've already had loads of time of work. I work part time. I also think I'm

Maybe not PMR update 5 years on
Good morning after 5 years next month on steroids with a PMR diagnosis I am headed down a different treatment path. I spoke to a musculoskeletal specialist in UK who questioned if I had ever had PMR due to my original diagnosis blood test showing a CRP result of 6 and an ESR of 1, whilst acknowledging

Follow up to initial appt
Hi all, I had my initial appt with rheumatologist 19th April, who diagnosed seronegative inflammatory arthritis. He gave me a steroid injection, which does seem to have lessened the swelling a bit, but still stiff and in pain. But I have yet to receive a follow up letter summarising the appt and findings

Angina and arthritis pain.
I have had for many years ischeamic heart disease (7 stents) damaged area of heart muscle due to two heart attacks back in 2014 plus AF. I also suffer with osteoarthritis in various joints the latest most recent in my right hip. This is constantly giving me severe pain that pain killers won't touch.

Trust Issues
The older doctor in my GP practice, that I have known for years and trusted, lied to me the other day and I have no faith in him any more. I had an eye infection a few weeks ago, which I put down to hay fever. I was prescribed Chloramphenicol, but the infection took a while to clear as the instructions
