leukotriene agonists and 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors
Hi Folks Need to tap into your direct experience of leukotriene agonists and / or 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors. Currently pattern is a need for 5 / 10 Day Oral Steroid Burst about every 4 to 5 Weeks. Thinking about asking my Consultant to give me one of the above if I need to have another Steroid Burst

Update Doctors
Hi all, have just been to my doctors and picked up my blood test results, that my new doctors wanted to do before going any further (originally the new doctor said she would arrange for me to have a MRI scan, but think this has been knocked on the head by her supervisor). At that point I had to make

Hi - New and Undiagnosed
Hi - I'm new here, have been reading a few of your posts and thought I should come out of lurking...It is a bit of a long rambly one i'm afraid because I don't know which symptoms might relate to a broader condition or whether it is just getting older/separate conditions (i'm 39). I also feel like I

Sedementation Rate
No diagnosis & no meds other than pred a few times in last 18 months. Also frequent Naproxyn. Labs have been all over the place. No Positive ANA but it has been borderline.

Blood results - mean anything?
Hello, I just got hold of some recent bloods, and wondered if they mean anything re thyroid or adrenal function?

Still feeling rubbish, will I ever feel well? Sorry for a pitiful post.
Sorry for the woah me post. You all know my background. It took me such a long time to get diagnosed and I felt even then I had to bully my GP into giving me thyroxine. I went through a trauma 4 years ago, I was attacked by my brother. As a result I had horrific anxiety and agoraphobia. The stress

Back Spasms
Has anyone experienced continuous back spasms? No meds have helped to date. The next step is to try a spinal cord stimulator. Any one used this device and their experience?

DRIVEN BONKERS about time we had 100% answers researchers!
We are all in this, trying to find what to take, what not to consume, wanting a cure, told there isn't one or read it may be possible to get some kind of remission. You recall I, as some, can't take the meds, severe side effects. I also had several useless doctors so learned a lot from this site and

Confused
I was very fatigued, having bouts of itchiness, belching and having upper right quadrant pain. The pain reminded me of when I had gallstone blockages. I knew something was really wrong. When I went to see a gastroenterologist, my bloodwork showed that my ALT, AST, BILI were elevated and ALB was decreased

Spinal cord stimulator
So I've been diagnosed with CRPS for the last year. This month I finally met with a consultant who wanted to get right now to treatment. I'd already tried most other treatments and was referred to a consultant at St Thomas London for a spinal cord stimulator. Despite many doctors being concerned that

Supplements/alternative treatments
Hi all, I won't go in to laborious detail about my endo....see my bio! It's stage IV and not being treated as I'm TTC. However two weeks ago my latest scan showed several endometrioma which have grown rapidly and my mood....like my bladder control is deteriorating rapidly! Never thought I'd be in Tena

Skin redness after shower getting worse
Hi I am not sure what is going on with my skin but it is getting worse. I do have mild seborrheic dermatitis centrally on my nose and chin probably triggered by cold weather and insufficient moisturizing. But this redness is different. I thought it might be rosacea but it is all over my body in patches
