Sideswiped .... again!
Early April found me discussing raised CRP, mild Anaemia and newly discovered degenerated lumbar disks with my GP. He expressed his concern that in the light of my raised CRP my rheumatologist's emphasis (in her letters) on getting me off pred quickly was totally unrealistic. He gave me a letter of intro

~Hot raised blood vessels anyone?~
Interested if any of our PMR friends have experienced hot ropey looking blood vessels that have developed on their PMR/GCA journey. Caught my usual regular upper respiratory virus at Easter - lots of rest, fluids and my trusty lypo-spheric vit c got me through - no green phlem which was a bonus. Usually

Need help to distinguish between hypothyroid and adrenal symptoms.
Hello, I have Hypothroid and Adrenal Insufficiency (Addisons).I was first diagnosed with Addisons and then Hashimoto’s thyroiditis later. I have been able to manage my AI but wonder if some of the symptoms I have now are due to my thyroid, bad headaches, constipation, weight gain, joint and muscle pain

Thyroid and Adrenals both, how to heal?
My main issues right now is this debilitating fatigue, and general weakness, both mental and physical. I get tired from just thinking (or remembering even, processing info, etc) from taking my Dog out for a walk, from reading a few sentences, doing easy, basic mundane daily tasks. It’s like this constant

Frustrated by hospital experience
I'm new here so please be kind! I'm pretty sure that the experience of the last few days won't surprise many, but just how hopeless can a Hospital be in looking after an asthma patient? The early hours of Sunday morning saw a very breathless me whizzing off under blue lights and sirens to the local DGH

Some Advice Please......
I was diagnosed with PMR in 2012 and placed on 15mg prednisolone daily. Over time the reduction of medication went fairly well but I reached 5mg daily I found the tiredness becoming increasingly more pronounced. I reached 3mg when I had an appointment with my Rheumatologist who referred me to an Endocrinologist

Lymphoma and FND
Hello all. I mentioned in a previous post over a year ago now that my journey with Lymphoma took me to various weird places. I was ill for a number of months before I was diagnosed, I couldn't walk properly, I literally couldn't pick my feet up from the floor, I dragged my feet, it was weird. I had RCHOP

Part Two for patient readers
In fact it is worth noting that 5mg of prednisone equals 20mg of hydrocortisone. It stays longer in the system so is more effective for lung disease sufferers. She explained that the biological dosage was between 5 and 7.5mg of prednisone and I better start on the higher dosage because I was so low.

Possible Issue Converting FT4 to FT3
I’m posting this for a good friend of mine who had been struggling with his hormone health for years. He’s in a bad way and I’m trying to help as best I can becuase his doctors seem to be doing a very poor job. (Harley Steet doc) He seems to have both low testosterone issues and also thyroid. He suffers

Extreme heart rates when at rest
Hello everyone, I’ll don’t think I can keep this short as there’s a lot going on, I’m not sure I’m in the right forum either, seeing I’m new to the group, but I’ve got a strange thing going on with what I think may be palpitations, but I’m not sure. I was diagnosed with Adrenal Insufficiency in February

Synacthen test result. Furious again!
Just rung up to chase the result of my synacthen test. The nurse had told me that she would ring next day if there was any problem, so after two weeks, I've been happily assuming that there was no issue. My GP now informs me that my results show adrenal insufficiency, presumably caused by long term prednisolone
