Fat Feet
I see four doctors. Two neurologists--one for MS and one for PD, A cardiologist and a primary care doctor. All have their own schedules which don't coincide with mine so I see doctors every three months. A couple days ago I saw the cardiologist. He listened to my heart then ran an EKG then

Who here have the same problems with their legs?
More than 20 years ago I was awakened by the worst pain I have ever had and it’s been hell ever since then. As long as I’m standing, I’m fine. But as soon as I lay down it feels like I’m laying next to the devil. To give you an idea how intense the pain is, it will wake me up even if I’m sedated.

what exactly does a stent involve?
Consultant has just copied me into letter to GP which seems to suggest that the choice is mine, to have or not, and I’m not clear what this would involve! 😬 Any advice, please?

GP suggesting alternative to citalopram to reduce PMR pain??
My GP has just suggested that I consider changing from 20mg daily citalopram (that I’ve been taking for last 3.5 years to combat menopause symptoms) to Duloxerine because “it will help reduce some of PMR pain”. I’m confused. I know she is concerned because I’m having trouble reducing from 17-20mg

Gabapentin for RLS
I was diagnosed with RLS around three weeks ago and have now been prescribed Gabapentin by my GP having rejected his initial prescription of Ropinirole. My RLS symptoms were initially very severe at night but I was generally symptom free during the day. This has now altered and I am now experiencing

Don't blame it all on the prednisone! Check things out.👩🏻⚕️ or 👨🏻⚕️
I'm writing to add a soft warning to be mindful. I was diagnosed with GCA in 2019 and finally got down to single digits this summer, I'm taking 5 mg per day plus Actemra. I'm only dropping .5 mg every six weeks. It has been fairly smooth except the fatigue, I did nothing and was [i]so, so tired![/

Just getting worse.
Hello everyone.I had a heart attack in August and had a stent fitted. This was all fine and I was discharged after a couple of days and was a happy man, feeling lucky and ready to get back to some sort of normality. However after a few weeks I had a setback when some nasty chest pains had me visiting

Beauty - laser treatments
Hi, Following my HA and stent in May 21 I have lost 2 stone, with a few more pounds to go! My son gets married next year and purely for vanity I am considering some laser facials which are supposed to plump up the skin and reduce fine lines, which are more prominent since the weight loss. Now I am

Come out feeling worse than when I went in!
Well following 8 months of worrying about having a heart attack, it’s happened. Admitted to hospital for a week, had angiogram which was the most horrendous experience but no need for stent as the culprit artery is too small to stent so prescribed a lot of medication. This was my second angiogram this

Depressed, hopeless and sleep deprived with RLS. HELP??
I’ve had RLS for 40 years and have been on almost every medicine out there. I’ve been in Requip for 6 years - 2 mg XL, 2 2mg Requip along with clonopin & methadone. My neurologist of 15 years has given up on me. I saw another one a few weeks ago and she said everything she’d prescribe, I’ve already
