Facet Joint Arthritis - I need Help!
I had an L4/5 lumbar fusion in 2016 and in the last 2 years I have developed
arthritis
in the facet joint above the fusion.
Pain
levels are high and my back is in constant spasm. Medical interventions have included cortisoid injections, denervation and botox injections to reduce pain.

Tapering while new issues
well I have told my story pretty well all along, including some family serious illnesses . In previous comments, I have mentioned my son, who has fought a battle actually since June 2017, beingdiagnosed with multiple myeloma, having stem cell transplant in Jan 2018, as a mom, this was very hard to see

My pain won’t wait, eg kyphosis, s-shaped scoliosis with rotation, hip
pain
.
Pain
from rheumatoid
arthritis
with secondary Sjögrens, fibromyalgia seems controlled at present but I also have ME/CFS and FND. I have read that scoliosis isn’t painful. My Mum is 97 and has it for years with no pain.

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.

Very sore and swollen hands. Is it possible I now have rheumatoid arthritis?
Hello 👋 😊 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

Discitis nearly killed me. I suspect streptococcus B was injected into me by Hormone injection for PCa
I have PCa. I am also immune suppressed due to kidney transplant. In February I started hormone injections due to BCR. A couple of weeks later I started to get back pain. Doctor prescribed pain killers. After about 6 weeks, many blood tests, consultations and an MRI scan I was diagnosed with discitis

Over the counter painkillers
Hi, I’m waiting on scan & further steps to manage my endo & adenomyosis. The pain is getting harder to manage & I’d be grateful for suggestions of pain relief that might work better than current ibuprofen, panadol & hot water bottles:) Have just been reading it’s better to start ibuprofen before day

Bit of a rant but need to get it off my chest . You couldn’t 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 couldn’t walk ) , firstly the help line is now closed permanently and e-mail is the only contact method I have

severe restless legs. Awake most of the night.
Been recently diagnosed with severe restless legs ,Been awake most of the night in pain and having spasms, painkillers have helped, but not enough and probably /hopefully temporary. Anybody else had this problem or any advice when I speak to a doctor?

Heart vs pain
I have lived with chronic spinal pain for well over 20 years and have now run out of options for keeping it under control. I recently saw a new, lovely pain consultant who said there were no more standard options but he would like to suggest I try CBD. However my heart is a problem. There hasn't

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.
