Can PMR weakened muscle cause curvature of the spine?
I finally saw a doctor at the pain clinic today. Since being diagnosed with PMR in 2018 I have lost 15cm in height. In 2020, just before lockdown, I was moving a pkt of mushrooms across my body from the table to the counter, when I felt something 'go' in the middle of my back. An hour or so later

Dexa scan results meaning
Hi Everyone I have finally managed to get a copy of the results of the above which I had done early March. I asked for the scan because I was automatically put on Alendronic acid at the same time as Pred although I had no likelyhood of osteoporosis. It wasn’t until I joined this site I realised the

Am I right to suspect endometriosis and ask to see a private specialist?
I’m worrying I was wrong, asking to see an endometriosis specialist. What if I’m being dramatic or I’m just really sensitive to completely normal period pain. I have to take naproxen on the first day of my period cause when I used to not take it, my pain would get severe and I kept vomiting or feeling

Vitamins/supplement balance 2ww and TTC. SO CONFUSING!
How do you manage preparing for an IVF cycle with suplements if you are also trying naturally? I am in a 2ww and might be pregnant if you believe in miracles. I have been taking the list below before, but learnt this is too much and can be detrimental in a two week wait so swapped for a pregnancy

Better taper management
Hello again helpful people. I thought I'd update on my progress managing PMR, which was not going well 3 months ago. I took your advice and visited the dentist, to have a wisdom tooth out and no prospect of Alendronic Acid for at least 3 months, so that was worth it. But after I failed at reducing

Ferritin and Iron
I found some information below about Ferritin and Iron - it is from the Dr Mercola website. I have just had my ferritin levels and iron levels checked - The Doctor said they were a bit on the low side so I am taking some gentle iron. My ferritin was 50.9 - I never heard of ferritin before having RLS

Is what I'm experiencing Pelvic Pain? Plus Spritz for Bits?
I'm 77 years old and have been diagnosed with rectocele and cystocele by my GP and also a private consultant, who told me he could do nothing until I had done 16 weeks of pelvic floor exercises.

Second opinion Dr implies no Endo!
Hi Everyone! So I work abroad on and off and in the UK, I was ‘kinda’ diagnosed with endometriosis, based on a teeny tiny left side ovary cyst they found and the fact that my womb or something was stuck to the back wall of something (uterus?) 🙈🙈 so in the country where I am working, I finally managed

Doctor follow up
Quick recap: in hospital with pneumonia and Pred increased to 10mg (from 4.5mg). Saw GP on discharge and was prescribed 10mg for 4 weeks. He also cancelled my repeat prescription so he said to go back in 4 weeks. So, yesterday I saw another GP to renew my repeat prescription. Immediately I was asked

Alendronate(Fosamax) total lifetime years
I am a 74 year old woman with osteoporosis. I have taken 1 prolia shot 6 months ago and am scheduled for the second shot Oct. 10. I don't wish to continue on Prolia because I believe it is affecting my immune system. I can't take zoledronic acid because of kidney disease (CKD3a). Alendronate weekly

Advice on egg freezing and hysterectomy for severely heavy bleeding
Hi everyone, I'm doing a little bit of research so I can take a huge stack of notes to my next gynaecology appointment, and wondered if anyone was able to share their experiences. I'm looking at potentially freezing some of my eggs, as I have endometriomas. I'm still undecided as to whether I want children
