Cellulitis or not!!!!
Woke up this morning and my arm was painful and swollen. Put my sleeve on and tried to carry on as normal. By lunch time it was really painful so took sleeve off and realised it was now very red!!! I rang the breast care nurse and she sent me straight to my Doc who has prescribed Antibiotics. She said

PMR and Lyme disease?
Does anyone have any information on the connection between PMR and Lyme disease? It seems to be a suspected cause especially in America, I live in Africa and have had the local version, Tick Bite Fever. My Rheumy ruled out Tick Bite Fever as a cause but then said he didn't know what caused PMR!

Certolizumab Pegol (Cimzia)
I'm having my 2nd DAS assessment in 4 weeks but it's looking very likely that I will come off leflunomide but remain on injected MXT and start this anti-TNF drug (my first). I know everyone is different but I would be interested to hear some experiences about it; side effects, how long it took to work

Dry skin question
Do emollient creams like Cetraben, which are made from a mixture of white soft paraffin and liquid paraffin, cause long term damage to your skin and eventually make the skin even drier please? If so does anyone recommend a natural emollient for very dry sensitive skin (fragrance and perfume free).

Ticked off!
Two months after Tick Bite Prevention Week (and finally with the arrival of summer weather) I got the first tick of the season on my long run on Tuesday. :-( I found the wee blighter in the skin on my belly, so must have picked it up during one of my pit stops during the run. I found it when back

A few days after coming home, I collapsed in the bathroom and hit the stone floor, hard!!!! When I came to and got up I realised that I was bleeding - my lip was split. I assumed

Scarlet Fever and Lupus?
Hi all, my son (14) has an outbreak of scarlet fever at his school, including a number of children in his class. It is highly contagious. I am on MTX and Plaquinil. Should I be concerned?
