Health anxiety or something sinister
Hi. Looking back over the years, I have suffered with health anxiety from around 8 years old, my mum used to cry as she was terrified of dying of cancer and my dad thought he was a doctor in his former life so guess as a child I grew up being very aware of every ache and pain ! Sadly they both died of

What’s wrong with me
So I am at a loss. In April, I used a deodorant that made my armpit have a lymph node swell. went down, however the doctor suggested a mammogram in which it showed something and i had to have a biopsy. I then started developing night sweats, not drenching but just enough to freak me out damp my neck

Ectopic beats all day everyday and now sharp stabbing pain.
Hi everyone. Just wanted to see if anyone has experienced something similar… I’m 35 and have had palpitations since August but in the last week they’ve gotten horrific and they’re all day, everyday. I was fitted with a holter monitor on Monday and wore that for 24 hours, still waiting on results but

GPA relapse advice needed
Good Morning to you all. I was hoping someone who could advice me on GPA Replase. I was diagnosed back in April of this year spent over 2 weeks in hospital and treated with Rituximab and continue on steroids unable to tolerate Azathioprine so spent the summer reducing steroids down from 60 mg to 10mg

Prayers please
My life has been a bit of a roller coaster lately. I spent last Wednesday in the ER trying to determine why I kept having dizzy spells and nearly passing out. My right arm was also going numb and my legs very weak. We were concerned I was having a relapse or stroke. After bloodwork, a chest x-ray, ekg

Pfizer and diaphragm problem
After having Pfizer I believe it has caused a diaphragm problem problem for me. I had my second shot in May. Shortly after I was selling all my furniture and ending up sleeping on pillows on the floor as I sold my bed. I had a few aches at first but on my right side it was there constantly. I just

Slow to get a rheumy appointment
My husband started feeling unwell in January this year. He ended up having a month off work. He is 53. Meanwhile the GP did various tests and a chest X Ray, he was even sent to A&E due to the pains in his chest. All checks ok. By July I suggested asking the GP for a lupus blood test, as I researched

HU & breathlessness
I’ve been on HU for 7!years and I noticed after about 9 months I was getting very slightly breathless. However, 7 years down the line I am extremely breathless . Walking from room to room I am slightly breathing heavy. Going upstairs I am very breathless and also just plain walking I get breathless.

Worries over new drug treatment : Infliximab
Experience requests please. Due to continuing inflammation, my RA has suggested that I stay on low dose Prednisolone (5mg) and MTX injections (15mg) but also start receiving infusions every 8weeks of Infliximab. The side effects I read on this drug seem worse than my regular aches and pains and I’m

Update ... flare has nicely abated...not on methotrexate YET! what do I do when medical insurance stops my cover for PMR?
Sorry for long post ... I took jinasc's advice and went up to 15mg Pred (rather than 12.5 for 2 weeks suggested by rheumie) for 5 days, then dropped by 10% to 13.5 for 5 days and now on 13 which has stopped the pain. Told rheumie about my decision as 12.5mg didn't do the trick. He was keen for me

Mysterious chest pain
Hoping for someone experiencing similar issues. I have had excruciating upper left chest pain for over 5 weeks. My Gp has sent me to a and e twice because the symptoms match a heart attack. ECG bloods and chest X-ray all normal. Diagnosed first with Costochondritis and then Bornholm disease. No painkillers
