Steroid injection for OA in shoulder
I experienced severe pain in shoulder at 8mg of Pred, and increasing dose had no affect. An X-ray showed bone on bone OA. I continued with taper now on 7mg. and shoulder has virtually gone. I think it flared up with too much use on recent holiday, and existing conditions do tend to assert themselves

Dreaded AA again !
I do not understand why Alendronic acid is still being prescribed. Having been diagnosed with osteoporosis, I took it for about 6 years which is now known to be far too long. As a result I sustained fractures in both femurs, a year apart, both now pinned but definitely stated as caused by AA. I

Itchy Scalp for months - slightly hair thinning but no visible scalp issues.
For the last 5 months, I have been suffering from an itchy scalp, primarily on the crown of my head. This happened essentially overnight and after scratching for a day, I coincidentally saw that my hair had thinned slightly in those itchiest areas by the next day. I went to see a General Practioner a

Agitated sleep
Hi everyone, I need ideas/advice to cope with my husband’s agitated sleep. He clasps and unclasps his hand and rubs constantly and rocks the boat which wakes me up. Or he rubs his face so hard he has red marks in the morning. I’m not sure about giving him a sleep aid or cbd oil: what have you experienced

Bone scan
Today I have been for a bone scan. I expected it to be ok. Unfortunately it wasn't. I have osteoporosis score of minus 3.4. I have been refusing alendronic acid as it is contraindicated for people with barrets esophagus my gp did not accept this. So again hand in pocket I am seeing someone privately

Alendronic Acid
Do you know if it’s ok just to stop taking alendronic acid or should that be tapered too? I’ve been on it for a couple of years and the latest advice seems to be that two years is enough. My GP and rheum is may not agree!

Good day fellow brothers and sufferers. This is my first post and my story. I am in the UK, so all of my treatment, whatever it entails is totally free of charge, so cost has no part to play in my treatment choice. I am 68 years old. In February 2018 I had a routine PSA – came back at 4.8ng/ml UK units

Update - 8 weeks of injections and some new symptoms
Hi, I am having injections from last 8 weeks and have seen improvements in some areas. Blurred vision has improved and so does night vision. But shimmering effect is still there. Eyes try to move around the focused object and it feels like words have slight to and fro motion. This is probably the strangest
