How do you cope with pain?
Over the last year I have been experiencing increasing pqin in legs and feet aside from usual neuropathic pain. This is cramping of leg muscles and feet if I take a few steps, only partially relieved with rest. Tried quinine and gabapentin to no avail and only pred seems to relieve it. Also started

Headaches with apixiban
Hi I've been taking apixiban for 5 weeks now. Have the worst headaches I've ever experienced that started 3 weeks ago. I'm taking high strength co codamol and nurofen around the clock to combat them but I'm still in agony. This is night and day. I came off apixiban 4 days ago and was changed to clexane

Just knowing you read this will make me feel less lonely.
I really need some help. I've suffered with anxiety since I was 13 years old, depression since 16 years old, suicidal thoughts and self harm since 18 years old and I'm now 20, and I've developed OCD with symptoms of Bipolar disorder too. I've been through 5 years of CBT, psychotherapy, drug rehabilitation

My Experience with PMR & Steroids.
This is my story with PMR and Prednisone. I am 58 years young and on 26th January 2015 I was scheduled for a pre-planned op on my foot to remove my bunion. This was in fact how I stumbled on this brilliant website and joined the Hallux Valgus (Bunions) forum. In December 2014 I had to attend the pre

Scared and needing advice please
Hi all, hoping someone on here can help. I was diagnosed with endo over 2 years ago. Had the lap to laser as much as they could and then a string of injections and pills to try and curb it a little without much success. I've been taking microgynon back to back for the last 5 months and felt great

Is the pred honeymoon over?
Started Pred 30 mgs 2 weeks ago - felt fantastic after a couple of days and have done up to Friday night! Now pain, swelling and inflammation left hand excruciating - again. Pain in skull neck and shoulder. Co-codamol doesn't seem to help and have just taken 2nd dose of Arcoxia. Do I grin and bear

Norethisterone - Honest Opinion?
I visited my Drs again this morning after my 13th day of irregular bleeding. Due a phone call Friday for a choose and book appointment but struggling with pain and bleeds. Its really getting me down. I was given Co-Dydramol but pretty much used all of it up. I have now been prescribed Norethisterone

Tramadol
Still having pain after my period finished 5 days ago so I went back to the doctor today and have been prescribed Tramadol (on top of the co-codamol and ibupofen)! What is everyone's experience of tramadol? I have never had it before and am a bit concerned about the side effects etc. My other concern

Frustrated
I have been diagnosed with endometriosis and adenomyosis for some time. I have been treated with mefanmic acid, tranesamic acid, I have had a coil, an ablation, I was given Prostap injections followed by Tibilone for the side effects. During the Prostap injections it was great but now, all treatments

UPDATE, AND NOW HAVE A RASH
Just thought I would give an update. I rang my Doctor's surgery yesterday to see if the results were back following chest x-ray I had week last Thursday, due to cough and breathlessness following increase of Methotrexate. I was told the results are not back yet and will be at least another week. Just

How can I manage
At last my appointment is getting close, been waiting since April. I've been told that I have to stop taking all pain killers at least 48 hrs before my appointment so they can get a true blood test. I'm on Naproxen 500mg twice a day & co-codamol 30/500 up to 4 times a day. Just don't know if I will
