Arthritis: Does It Ever Settle?
Good morning all! Hope everyone is coping with the changeable weather. My Psoriatic Arthritis has, over the last 18months “settled” in my left shoulder and elbow. Picking things up/Holding onto things in my left hand has become increasingly painful. It continues to move around other joint groups

This is some background. I was recently diagnosed with enlarged prostate. My general health is not good as I had a Triple Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair and also, last year was diagnosed with Heart Failure. I’ve also got Severe Spinal Stenosis which has returned following a Failed Laminectomy Spine

Very sore shin (bone not joint)
Hi everyone, I am on holiday abroad at the moment so not in contact with any healthcare provider. I am wondering if anyone could advise me on pain I am suffering. Just before I left for holiday I suffered an agonising night of no sleep with a very sore shin. Right on the bone, not near a joint. I blamed

Just needing a vent
I am feeling really fed up right now. I got diagnosed about 2 weeks ago with pots and then 2 days later was in hospital with kidney stones. Got released just on time to make a family trip to London so had lots of painkillers to get through it but still managed to enjoy it. I came home and went to gp

Anterior and Posterior surgery all done
Well I'm on week 3 post Op. All good. Operation went well. Ended up in theatre for 2 hours to repair bladder and bowel prolapse. I
opted not to have pelvic floor therapy or pessaries but to go straight to surgery. Best choice ever. In and out. Catheter in for one night and packing. Removed next morning

Tendon ruptures in hand due to long-term RA
I'm 67 and things have reached a chronic stage in my left, dominant hand due to several tendon ruptures affecting middle and ring fingers, which I can no longer extend. I'm now on the Orthopaedic surgeon's operating list, but I am very scared about how I will cope post-operatively, since I already have

Vitamin supplements: good or bad?
For 45 years I have taken mega doses of vitamins and other health supplements every day without fail. These include 2000mg vitamin C and 400iu of vitamin E and fish oil capsules. These are supposed to enhance the auto immune system. As rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is caused by an over active immune system

Don't believe all my pain is due to pain syndrome
I have been diagnosed with a chronic widespread pain disorder. I am ok with working on the assumption that the pains in my body and back and tingles in my hands, feet and lower back are caused by this. I am not convinced at all that its the cause of the pain in my left leg. The pain there has been

Update: Myofascial Pain Syndrome
I had posted (I believe to PMRPro) a few days ago about my symptoms with regard to trigger points or fascia issues in my back. My daughter went over my back gently yesterday. There is a muscle just below the ribs on the right side which is so spasmed it can be seen as swollen above my spine (I have pics
