Ultrasound Guided Steroid Injection & Tear in Tendon
Hi Everyone I was booked for the above in my right shoulder this afternoon, the radiographer said, so you're here to see if you need a steroid injection in your shoulder, I replied that I thought that was what I was having done anyway. Once he'd finished using the ultrasound, he said that I did have

Raynaud's Dr.'s Appt. Outcome Am I Expecting Too Much
I actually had an appointment with just the rheumatologist. First time with no residents. Now I see like Kay said, the residents are important. The doctor did no examination . He did ask about the prescriptions he gives me and although my file was in front of him, he seemed not that versed in what they

Panic Attacks
For about two years, I've experienced panic attacks several times a week. The first time that I had one I went to the ER, because I thought I was having a heart attack. The main symptoms are a shortness of breath, a feeling of tightening in the chest, and an overall sense of weakness. I've had problems

Statin Drugs and Prostate Cancer recurrence
Hello all. A month or so ago, I wrote about my hubby's blood test showing a calcium level of 134. Many of you good folks responded and some suggested that it might be a mistake. Well, it WAS a mistake. His blood calcium level falls within the normal range. We learned that the 134 figure was referring

Hi everyone, Following on from the last bloods I had, my GP helpfully informed me that my folate level is fine, even though it is currently 4.7 (range 3.1-20). Does this sound right to you? Because to me that is suggestive that I need to supplement with folate. I have also started having strange symptoms

Even if you increase your bone density, you still have osteoporosis
Hi everyone, I was just looking over the updated Clinician's Guide to Osteoporosis and noticed something that bears mentioning on this forum. A lot of users seem to be focused on increasing their bone mineral density as measured by their T-score on a DXA test. American Bone Health recommends you focus
