Baker's cysts update
I posted 10 days ago about knee pain and possibly baker's cysts. After blood test showed my crp level at 14 abd wbc at 16.4 I was concerned. My DR wasn't concerned. I've had scaly area on my foot soles and foot area for a few months so I emailed Dr photo's of this plus photo's of my swollen knees/lower

I've been on prednisolone for 10 years. Can't get off it. Even with nucala injections every 4 weeks. I had churg Strauss syndrome. And still on 11 drugs to get by. Every day. Including heart drugs. But still can't get PIP. Even though I would probably die before someone with a bit of arthritis who

I have mild arthritis in my foot. I use Wiley's Wild Alaskan Fish oil 2300 MG, half a teaspoon daily and have no foot pain. If I forget it for a few days the pain returns. It's good for the heart and brain as high Omega 3. Apparently its stronger than other fish oils. Hope it helps.

Armour Thyroid for over 20 years
I have been taking Armour thyroid since 2000... Have had my current Dr for at least 20. When I had COVID last time (about 2 years ago .. very mild case) I noticed my TSH was up (over 3...very high for me and on Armour). I mentioned it to my Dr and she suggested waiting, it could be temporary. In the

Fingers crossed
One whole week off the steroids! Been very slow tapering and now stopped and feel fine. Steroids had masked an no doubt exacerbated arthritis knees etc. but hoping all okay. Told to start tapering methotrexate in 3 weeks by 5mg per month.

Help interpreting results :)
Hi there, I'd be so grateful for some help trying to interpret test results. I started getting symptoms of joint stiffness, low energy, skin breakouts and generally not feeling myself, in 2021. Due to the joint inflammation in my feet and fingers, I was diagnosed with Inflammatory Arthritis, but there

When is the best time to take T3
Hi I collected my first prescription for T3 Liothyronine 20 mg today. All the instructions on the box tell me is to take one tablet a day. I read the instructions inside and they just say to take exactly as instructed by doctor or pharmacist. So does it matter when the tablet is taken or if it is

hydroxychloroquine and stuffy itchy nose with occasional bleeding.
My rheumatologist added hydroxychloroquine to my methotrexate regiment for my rheumatoid arthritis. After a few weeks on the hydroxychloroquine, my nose has become itchy and stuffed up, especially when lying down and I am having trouble sleeping. Has anyone else had this problem?

switching to a carnivore diet has put my PMR into total remission
I know the subject may be viewed as sensational or just plain wrong, but that is what I have concluded. At the time I was diagnosed with PMR, I already had diagnoses of psoriatic arthritis and fibromyalgia. My PMR started in 2019, about 8 months prior to covid. I was put on prednisone and experienced

Accept nothing question everything...with the proviso that you are well informed
Everything that I have been complaining about for 8 years has now been seen on MRI. The private MRI that I paid for last week. Some of the best money I have ever spent. Not only do I have 'florid' synovitis in my hands, I have widespread enhanced bone erosions in both hands and feet. I also have
