Arthritis pain
It’s hard living in pain I have my kids. I’m single mom. I miss having someone in my life. I take medication and I get injections I do my best with everything to do with that. My neck and my back. I stretch every day. If I lose some weight I’ll be less pain too so I do my best on the weight

Possible GCA/PMR no help from Doctors
All 3 of them dismissed the possibility of Temporal
Arteritis
/Giant Cell
Arteritis
and said no further testing is merited. I am only 35 and the ER doctor actually told me it was impossible to have at this age, which I know from my own research is not true.

Pain
How do you deal with the severe pain of arthritis flare up ? I take cocodamol , use voltarol gel and it's doing nothing for the pain . I can't take anti inflammatories and desperate for relief and sleep . Pain is spine , hip and down into knee . Any suggestions welcome x

Poncet’s disease
Hello anyone out there like me whose rheumatologist thinks I’ve had Poncet’s disease? I’m now being treated for TB and hoping this may care my inflammatory/ reactive arthritis.

tenderness
I had my stepmom rub my back this evening and when she hit the area where I feel the arthritis in the upper part of mt back it hurt worse when she hit that area to massage it. It hurt bad enough for me to yell out ouch. What should I do about this or is there anything that can be done? Need suggestions

Anyone else have this?
Looks like dried blood in the cuticle. My index finger on the other hand has it too. I have Inflammatory arthritis and Raynaud's, is it connected?

Would love some advice
Hi. Firstly, I just want to say how grateful I am to have found this forum. It is invaluable and has answered some of my questions before I have even asked them - ie. blurry eyes etc. I would love some advice though if you can still put up with me. My consultant reduced my 40mg dose of prednisolone

Hypothyrodism & autoimmune disease
Hi everyone. I'm new on here, so please bear with me. Following the removal of my left thyroid (it had been engulfed by a tumour - benign thankfully) in October, I have never felt more unwell in my life! I had a thyroid blood test on 5th Nov, which hospital said was 'in range, but at the very bottom'

Just had first phone consultation with rheumatologist
I have to have a face to face consultation with him but before this can happen he is sending me some blood tests to have done, which I assume I have done at my doctors. He said my ESR and CRP levels were raised when I had my first tests done and PMR diagnosis and my rheumatic levels were slightly raised

New diagnosis of Fibromyalgia
Hi, just had appointment with consultant and very confused. I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis 5 years ago at a different hospital as well as having osteoarthritis. I have been having a bad flare up for months now. Given my symptoms now he thinks I might have fibromyalgia, and possibly not psoriatic

Bloody Urine using Celebrex
My husband has been on Eliquis 5 mg. for over 5 years. His arms have be discolored by the bruising. After a Rheumatologist put him on Celebrex for one month, he had bloody urine for 12 hours. I had him stop the Eliquis. Has anyone been switched to 2.5mg without any trouble? The Celebrex works well

Head aches
Doctor sent me for blood tests and it’s not temporal
arteritis
but he hasn’t signalled what it actually is. I have a slight incline on my skull. It’s not painful just annoying me. My right side is higher than the left side of my head. Hard to explain. Sometimes the headache is burning.
