It felt like someone was driving pins into my left knee joint, the
arthritis
pain
was back with a vengeance. I could barely put weight on the leg but had no choice but to hobble on very carefully back home.

Pain medication recommendations for knee & ankle swelling & inflammation
I find that swelling in either of my knees or ankles triggers my RLS. Since I had a knee replacement 6 months ago, the swelling happens frequently as both legs readjust to the post-surgical healing. A new study revealed that ibuprofen and other NAISDS can cause fatal kidney disease, so my GP took me

Help/advice about periods please!
I'm messaging here because I've been dismissed by male doctors before and I'm not sure whether to make an appointment or not. I've basically always had irregular periods but they've been getting worse and worse - heavier and more painful and I can never predict when I'll get it. Cycle length varies

I have been on benepali for 5 weeks and I am feeling it working at last! I am not in as much pain as I was 5 weeks ago.

Private GP to get NHS referral
Hi Ladies I hope you are doing as well as it can be A quick question and a few background notes. Suffering from pain for 10 years. The pain got stronger over time and now lasts longer. Last couple of years in particular were the worst. So far I couldn’t get even the right painkillers from my gp but

I feel like a drug addict asking for pain killers
My endo hasn’t improved much and I have the fear I’m going to become addicted to codeine. I used to be on tramadol but I asked to be taken off because it made everything feel like a dream. I’ve been trying not to take them but when I don’t I get these horrible flare ups and I also just had my period

Sciatica/nerve pain when walking - what do I do next?
I am getting tired of this pain - and the pain does cause fatigue. To give context, I started getting sciatica in 2020. I thought it was due to less movement because of COVID. Over the couple of years, it’s got worse, in addition to elongated, irregular periods and brown spotting. I can’t walk without

Shaking hands
Hi I have been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy plus I have RA orRD and I have posted on here before.I’m struggling with both conditions now. I’m only on methotrexate plus the occasional pain pills. The peripheral is bad enough but the hand tremors now are exhausting and I don’t feel well most

Consultant feedback
I went to see him and said the mecication methotrexate and Hydroxychloroquine do not seem to be covering my
arthritis
pain
when I am stressed. I wanted to include a third medication to the mix to see if that would cover the pain, mainly in my foot and rash on my eyelids.

Ovaries & tubes removed- 3 days post op
Hey, So I’ve finally had my op after it being cancelled the first time. Was in surgery longer than expected. I’m 3 days post op, yesterday was a pretty good day, today already feels like a really bad day. I was told after surgery I am not allowed my HRT back due to abdominal growths they had to remove

Prednisolone and Osteoporosis
He was a bit cross but then referred me to rheumatologist and x-rays to rule out
arthritis
because the
pain
in my pelvic girdle could be due to “old age”. I’m 58!! Anyway I couldn’t get in for X-rays for a while and it was a 3 month wait to see rheumatologist.
