Inflammatory Arthritis with Levothyroxine
Has anyone else had severe pains in their tendons and muscles due to Levothyroxine? 18 years ago I had an ESR blood test at my G.P.'s surgery as I had severe pains on Levothyroxine, this proved I had Inflammatory Arthritis, so I bought Armour Thyroid from the US as the only alternative at that time.

Are you a parent with Inflammatory Arthritis?
Having inflammatory arthritis can be hard, add to this the ‘joys’ of raising children and the challenges can begin to pile up. As a parent with IA, it can get frustrating, and you aren’t alone if you feel this way. We’d love to have you join our Parenting with IA meeting, a safe space for you to laugh

Steroid reduction
Two weeks ago I was told reduce your dosage from 4 to3 which I have done. Blood test last week and was told normal . Don't know what normal is as the past few days had pain in shoulders hips and lower back. I also have osteoarthritis in most joints so wondering if it's that that is causing all the pain

night cramps
Hi everyone, I’m new on this forum. I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis 3 years ago, in the family genes!, I’m currently on Methotrexate (25mg). Seem to be ok until about 2 weeks ago when I started to experience severe night cramps in my legs and feet. My consultant tells me it wasn’t a symptom

What is an Osteoarthritis flare?
I have been suffering from a painful knee/leg for a few days, bad enough to make me hobble and far more painful after sitting for a few hours. It gradually got worse over 3 days then yesterday, while walking in my house, something seemed to give and it was agony to walk - I could not put any weight on

Rheumy Nurse?
I am puzzled. This site has many references to apparent support teams. I am delighted if that is general. For myself the only contact with the NHS I have is my GP. It is alleged that there is a very overdue appointment with a consultant. Maybe I shall be able to elicit information about some kind
