bursitis
Happy and healthy New Year everyone. I am down to 1mg of pred and have developed, what my osteopath says, is bursitis . Also arthritis has flared up in my feet. I saw a nurse practitioner who said take painkillers to manage it and that because of the reduction in steroids this has all flared up and

extremely intense pain due to stage 4 Endrometriosis
Hi, An ambulance has just left our house. Today is the first day of my period and I had to call 999 due to extreme pain that I never experienced before. They gave me strong pain killers and I feel better but I’m still in shock of the intensity of the pain I experienced today! My whole body was in agony

Doctor dismissal
Hello, i'm after some advice as I know so many other women have been in the same situation I've been to the doctors regarding my periods as I am concerned I have endometriosis or something along those lines and the doctor showed no interest and was really patronising. She ended up prescribing me with

Update - Not Polymyalgia?
Update - First had Polymyalgia 2018 tapered off successfully 2020 CRP10 ESR 26. Diagnosed again July 2023 CRP4 ESR 26. Symptoms completely different (all neck, shoulders, arms) Put back on 20mg steroids. I wasn’t convinced on 2nd diagnosis so GP agreed I should taper off. Began taper, had blood tests

Small pouch or bag
Can anyone recommend a small pouch that would clip on to a belt or one with a strap already on that I can carry a couple of inhalers in and a pulse /0ximeter when I go out, thanks.

Painful knee
Hi, I've recently joined this forum. I started doing the couch to 5k in November. Finding it quite hard as rather out of condition but I persevered. I'm on week 5 now, though I have missed a few runs due to Christmas and New year. I've also for that reason stuck to run 1 for the last few times. However

Zanubrutinib or O&V
The CLL specialist that we are seeing is giving my husband the choice between O&V and Zanubrutinib. We are trying to make the best decision, but struggling. They also said he can do one and switch to the other or vice a versa, but my husband works full-time and we’re a bit concerned about What seems

Hip & abdomen problems with endometriosis
I got diagnosed with endometriosis in February 2023 but I've been on a crutch since 2022 with severe hip/abdomen pain that goes across my back and down my leg on the right side. I've been seeing my GP since February 2022 and even after my laparoscopy and diagnosis of endo in Feb 2023 I've not had much

anticoagulants-or not..
I have read a number of articles which I think say that the protocol for when to add to the CHaDs s score for prescribing anticoagulants with AF was based on patients who were very obviously symptomatic whereas many newer patients have fewer symptoms and discover AF through smart watches / other devices
