Persistent headache
Hi, I was diagnosed with Temporal

Very sore and swollen hands. Is it possible I now have rheumatoid arthritis?
Hello ๐ ๐ I have really sore hands. Particularly thumb/wrist joint on both hands and swollen little finger on right hand. Three or four finger joint too. My GP has done blood tests over several years and said it Osteoarthritis, not rheumatoid. Over the past 3 months I have had a couple of episodes

Versus arthritis leaflet on steroids and PMR
I picked up a leaflet/booklet from Versus Arthritis about Steroid tablets in a hospital the other day and I think it would be useful particularly to those new to PMR/taking steroids. An updated new version is available free to download or you can order a free paper copy from them via their website.

Bit of a rant but need to get it off my chest . You couldnโt believe what I was told when I called my help line to ask for advice after a major flare up , ( both my knees where so swollen I couldnโt walk ) , firstly the help line is now closed permanently and e-mail is the only contact method I have

Numbness in feet
I have under function of thyroid glands and also osteoarthritis for a number of years. Since over a year I notice that the ball of my feet as well as the back of my toes feel 'numb', especially first thing in the morning when I wake up. Sometimes this sensation is also there during the night. Rather

Psoriatic Arthritis
Does anyone have any experience with this? From my research from, yes, Dr. Google, on a Saturday night when I'm fed up and after my pedicurist suggested that the red scaly patches on both legs could be psorisis. Apparently psoriatic arthritis is very closely related to Lupus and you can have both.

Iโve been diagnosed March 10 with Arterial Arteritis by my hematologist. Itโs complicated.
Ive had symptoms I realize for a few years , mentioned them to neurologist and hematologist and rheumatologist, but we have thought they were due to my autoimmune blood clotting disease, antiphospholipid Syndrome. ( APS. ) I did not understand, nor did they, why my brain felt bruised and tender after

X ray results
So I finally got a letter from the rheumatologist consultant today with my xray results. He said my lumbar spine was OK but both my hips are showing signs of osteoarthritis especially the left one and hip impingement again especially the left one. He said before he refers me to orthopaedic surgery he
