Stopping Cerazette
First time poster, but I’ve taken many tips from this board so thank you all in advance. 2 years ago I doubled over in agony, eventually got sent to A&E via my GP with suspected appendicitis. Wasn’t appendicitis, it was a haemorrhaging ovarian cyst. Sent home with painkillers, had a couple of scans and

MRI Scan result
Well I guess this could have been better and I have to admit it's probably worse than I anticipated. I'll sort out a chat with the doc to see where/if we go from here. Hopefully my DEXA scan in a couple of weeks will be more cheerful. [i]The scan shows he has sciatica with neuropathic pain and if the

Toothache and af
Am sitting here with painful toothache and I think I have an abbsess. Can anyone tell me if the numbing injections they give at rhe dentist trigger AF ? or anything else to watch for at rhe dentist. I have a huge fear of dentists and knowing the visit may cause af also is tipping me over the edge.

Arthritis, PMR or both.
I’ve been on this journey for nearly 3 years and am down to 1.5mg pred. I still get shoulder pain but it manifests in a different way to when I first got PMR. I had shoulder problems for some years before I got PMR. I found it difficult to tie up my blood parameters, which were fine, with the shoulder

PMR shoulder pain?
I’m wondering if anyone else’s shoulder pain is worse in the evening. When first diagnosed I had the classic morning symptoms. As I also have inflammatory arthritis, scoliosis and spinal stenosis I am finding it difficult (as are the doctors) to match the symptoms to the conditions.

Postherpetic Neuralgia and B12
Not directly related to PA, but nonetheless of potential interest to those with PA as well as anyone with Postherpetic Neuralgia. (I currently have PHN and am taking methylcobalamin every day. Alongside capsaicin cream. Difficult to know if it is helping, but I think it is.) [i]

oh no ! Bilateral hip arthritis
for years I believed my
pain
was due to a back problem (facet joint
arthritis
) But I have just been diagnosed with bilateral moderate hip arthritis. I have literally visited the GP 15-20 times over the last 8 years and not once was my hips believed to be the problem.

Topical Treatment for RA Joint Pain
My RA has been fairly well-managed with fortnightly 40ml adalimumab injections and weekly 20mg methotrexate injections for a few months. Since starting these meds together I still get some stiffness in a few joints, but not the pain I used to suffer and so I now consider my symptoms to be manageable.

Gabapentin and fibromyalgia

Migraines!
Anyone else suffer from these? Yesterday was horrendous. Honestly felt like someone was smashing me in the occipital region with a cricket bat. Of course I'd run out of pain killers. I felt so sick and wobbly, getting to the shop was out of the question. Fortunately a neighbour had some migraleve. I'm

Hashimotos - inflammatory arthritis - hydroxychloroquine
Hi I have Hashimotos and a multitude of other ‘little conditions’ as you’ll all know. My main pain atm is my swollen finger joints. Due partly to covid I just had useless phone consultations with a rheumatologist and his locums. All saying you have osteoarthritis take an aspirin. Then a couple of months

pain deep in vagina after peeing
MY STORY hi everyone, So I have stage four endometriosis. Basically all of the organs within my pelvic area ugly together. I’ve had severe period pain since I started having periods at 11… I’m now 31. Had my first laparoscopy at 21, another at 24, which seem to really help my symptoms a lot. I was

PMR or arthritis update.
Just over a week ago I posted the question PMR or arthritis because my hips and back had flared up. I got great advice on here as usual which meant I increased my pred from 4mg to 7mg. It took two days to give me good pain relief but I felt a bit fed up cos I’d got down to 4mg and now gone backwards.

Hi everyone
I've been in pain everyday for over a year, the pain doesn't go away it can just get worse then go back down. And the pain I have when on my period is even worse, I get cramps about a week before my period starts, and my periods are usually heavy and last about 7 days. I'm bed bound by pain for a lot

Not sure what to expect?
Hi all I’ve managed to get an appointment with the Rheumy nurse today f2f. I started on Sulfasalazine just over 2 years ago, I was slow to improve and had steroid injections to help along the way. I changed trusts after one year due to lack of appointments and just general mayhem prompted by my GP.
