Tampenadol
My pain specialist has suggested trying Tampenadol 50mg twice a day for chronic back and leg pain. I've been on it a couple of days so far it's not been enough to cope with flare up pain during the day so I've had to either use oramorph or tramadol to cope . What doses are people on and how long do

St Johns wort
St Johns wort and 5HTP raise serotonin levels. There is never enough serotonin in Parkinson patients.

Back pain and complications after surgery
Hi everyone I'm finding lots of useful help on here and it helps to know I'm not alone. I've had lower back problems for 5 years now which started after moving a child at school ( I work with autistic children) At first I thought I'd pulled a muscle but it didn't go away and just got worse and worse

Positive ANA 1:80
Hi everyone hope all are well. So I had a hospital appointment for another reason and mentioned I was awaiting an ANA result. She had a look for me and said it had come back and is positive 1:80 and speckled bit couldn't tell me anymore as it is out of her field. Advised me to chase it up with my GP.

Early treatment
Hi there, I haven't yet been diagnosed with scleroderma, but at this point with the symptoms I'm fairly confident that it's going to be. My first rheumatologist appointment is in a few weeks. I'm 29 and male and here's a quick summary of the symptoms which these began 7 months ago: - Close family history
