I’m new to this forum
hi folks, new to this forum. basically was referred to consultant some 6 years ago and started on NSAID naproxen which I had been taking for a while prior and which seemed to be holding pain control quite well. Declined to start DMARDs at that point as a bit scared of side effects and have managed with

Hello, I have Parietal Cell antibodies and I am concerned about Cancer, so I have been reading up about eating better to increase stomach acid. Can anyone let me know if you can influence the production of stomach acid by changing your diet even if you have Parietal Cell anitbodies? Perhaps stomach

RF, RA, Rayos & Pain
I had a great first visit with my rheumatologist this week. She was validating and knowledgeable and respectful. She is also pretty confident I have RA (tons of tests ordered and I go back in a couple of weeks). Two things: (1) my original labs that got me referred to a rheumatologist showed a rheumatoid

Getting a diagnosis
Hi I've had symptoms potentially related to a b12 problem just about all my life (I'm 50 now). I became very ill about 3 years ago with a typical list of symptoms along with extreme weight loss and loss of muscle mass. I was anaemic then and also had very low serum ferritin. I saw a neurologist who told

Atropic gastritis? Symptoms of B12 deficiency?
Hi all. I've been having some concerning symptoms for about 3 months. It all started with random abdominal pains and low back pain. It is now radiating down my groin and into the backs and sides of the thighs. I saw my GP last month as the stomach pains are now very bad, horrible burning pain,

What to expect?
Finger pain and swelling ongoing several months. No functional deficit. Rheumatoid factor mildly elevated and anti-CCP off the scale at >340. No rheumatology appointment yet - only just referred. Am I likely to be prescribed Methotrexate?

OA in hip and right shoulder
I've tried Voltaren, Duloxetine ( which did not stop the pain) Aleve, Tylenol, shot in the hip. I really don't want surgery, I'm 69. I even tried castor oil poultice.Id like just like to manage pain at night so I can sleep.... During the day when I'm up I can deal but nights are the worst.

Latest GP diagnosis is... I’m getting old! I'm 55! Help with next steps please… 😠
Hi everyone. So had my GP follow up since my previous posts. My ferritin is 26, which the GP informs me is the highest it’s been since they tested in 2017. She assures me it's fine as it’s ‘in range’ [10 – 180]. She insists I ‘categorically cannot have low B12 symptoms’ with an ‘above range’ B12

neuropathy?
I am still awaiting my first rheumatologist appointment. My labs weren’t awful - ANA & CCP negative, but Rheumatoid factor 191 and slightly elevated Sed Rate and C-reactive protein. I had had very brief (20 seconds or less) bouts of vertigo and 6 falls in 9 months - so my doctor ordered and MRI and

Blood test for intrinsic factor. How accurate is it?
Have been well for quite a while on my eight weekly B12 injections but had been referred to a gastroenterologist for worsening IBS . He wants to find out why I have B12 deficiency and has requested I have blood test for intrinsic factor. Just wondering how accurate this is as sure I’ve had before and

Awful taste in mouth - is this a Sjogren's thing?
Hello - I'm new here! I'm not diagnosed with Sjogren's though I'm fairly sure I have it. I've had symptoms for around 15 years, and I have a family history of RA (with hindsight, I think my mum had Sjogren's too, not just RA, as she had a lot of the dryness symptoms). I've got all the usual symptoms

newbie and waiting….
Hi! I’m a newbie. Backstory: mom and both sisters have Hashimoto’s. My mom passed in 2010 & was told she had “inflammatory arthritis” a couple years before she passed (although by then that was the least of her medical worries). Flash way forward: I started having ocular migraines, very brief (10 seconds

Flare up after a pretty settled period
Two years ago I had a massive flare and was in a lot of pain / extreme fatigue. I was on prednisolone which was like a magic cure initially and then caused a host of gastric problems. I also trialled methotrexate tablets and methotrexate injections and really struggled with the side effects. After about
