Fractured wrist
Good morning everyone. I need advice please. My partner managed to fall yesterday (fell off a high kerb while looking to avoid traffic) He’s fractured his left wrist and is now in plaster in a sling but been told he may likely need an operation to pin and plate it. He’s in a great deal of pain, understandably

Coming off Duloxetine
I've been on Duloxetine for several years and would be interested to see if my
arthritis
pain
would change if I stop taking it. Does anyone know what the long term side effects are? I understand that I would have to come off it gradually.

Still Waiting
I’ve been in agony for ages, it all started last April, pain in my lower left side that started as a dull ache but just got progressively worse. It’s around the hip, buttocks, lower left leg and sometimes as high as under the rib cage. After keeping a pain diary I’ve noticed it does flare up around the

An unfortunate series of events
Hi I’m in a bit of a dilemma. Recently several things happened to me in quick succession. 1. My RA specialist ( locum ) advised me to reduce my MTX doseage. 2. I had a heart attack and my anti- inflammatory stopped ( naproxen ) I am now experiencing what I think is a flare ( shoulders / neck / back pain

Don’t underestimate your strength and ability to cope
I was diagnosed with PMR about 7 years ago and most of us who have PMR and are on prednisone have “full plates” and feel overwhelmed. This last year has been particularly challenging for me yet, surprisingly, I find myself still standing and wanted to relay a message. History: Recently I hit a pothole

Morning Peeps 🙂 Thought some of you might be interested in reading this article from The New Scientist 27/6/2022 It discusses stopping mtx for 2 weeks after a Covid vaccine, which I have read a lot about on here. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2326185-coming-off-methotrexate-doubles-antibody-levels-after-covid

My Jeff, a beautiful life
Sunday, June 26th, Jeff continued to rest at home. We were so very grateful that his pain seemed completely managed and we didn’t have to fret about his hurting. The hospice nurse visited around 10:00 a.m. and considering the circumstances, Jeff was “ok”. His oxygen levels were actually up, his heart

Do I have a hysterectomy?
I have suffered with pain since I was 11 years old and am now 38. I have had 2 coils, 2 laparoscopys, tried tri-cycling my combined pill for years, the mini pill, hormone injections and HRT. I have pain for 7-10days on a 2 weekly cycle and feel like my endo rules my life. I feel like I am not able to

In so much pain from passing large clots… I really hate my uterus. Fed up! 😢
My usual dose of painkillers isn’t working for my adenomyosis & Endo pain this month. I came on yesterday. I think this month is extra painful because I took the Norethisterone to delay my period for my holiday and I regret taking it so much if that’s what’s causing this unbearable pain. Been in tears

Arthritis in pinky finger
I just met with a hand orthopedic dr. The top joint of my little finger has osteo arthritis. He told me that really the only thing to stop the pain is to fuse the joint. Has anyone done this and felt better or does it cause secondary problems?

Joint Pains
I was fairly recently informed I have
arthritis
in my hip..thought it was bowel
pain
turns -out via x-ray it is apparently
arthritis
. Then realised all the other aches I have gradually obtained over the last decade may well be ditto.

I’m rare apparently!
Just had a f2f with my rheumatologist upshot is I have both RA and PSA usually have one or the other not both . I don’t have psoriasis but it’s in the family. So a game of messing with meds . First off upping MTX. I’ve had problems with the higher doses before so going to try again. He doesn’t want to

One week post op
Hi I donated a kidney Thursday 16th June.. Was out of hospital on the Saturday 18th..Friday out of bed, shuffling about on my feet, a lot of discomfort. Day of going home a slow walk and feeling very delicate. Felt every bump on being driven home. Next three days progressively better pain wise, though

Endocrinologist
I'm female, mid 50s and have osteoarthritis. I hope someone can answer a few queries. Is it normal to get severe flare ups with osteoarthritis or does that point to rheumatoid arthritis? Over the last 6 months, I've noticed that my body has been producing increased areas of bone e.g. right elbow and

Mri diffusion weighted
Hi everyone I hope you’re doing okay. I’ve had a letter today with an mri appointment I’ve been waiting for & it listed 3 scans, a pelvic mri and an abdominal mri which I’ve had numerous times but it also listed ‘mri diffusion weighted’ which I’ve never had or even heard of before. I tried to google
