Off Baricitinib and knee replacement

Fractured wrist
Good morning everyone. I need advice please. My partner managed to fall yesterday (fell off a high kerb while looking to avoid traffic) He’s fractured his left wrist and is now in plaster in a sling but been told he may likely need an operation to pin and plate it. He’s in a great deal of pain, understandably

pain medication
Hi everyone, I wonder if there is anyone here suffering the same as I am?? I have 2 herniated discs and sciatica. I also have early signs of mild osteoarthritis of the spine. I had a HA last year and can no longer take naproxen. I am wondering what others take as pain relief? I take co codamol and gabapentin

Ibuprofen and aspirin
I have ET and normally take a 75mg aspirin alongside my Anagrelide, however my severe arthritis is having a major flare up, co-codamol isn’t touching it so I have had to take Ibuprofen for a couple of days. I haven’t taken my aspirin as I didn’t want to overdo the thinning drugs. It’s starting to calm

Terrible Pain and Aches
Hi everyone :) I've had terrible aches and pains lately. Mainly in my lower body hips and down. I'm at 7mg of Pred these days. Yesterday I had to take Co-codamol (prescription strength) which I found in a box. They were a bit old but worked a bit and I was able to function a bit but with no lifting

New and still learning how to deal with PMR
Hi, I was diagnosed just over a year ago with PMR. Just recently I have had two bad flares and in-between these I tested positive for Covid. The first recent flare was end of March, almost coinciding with my year anniversary of being diagnosed with PMR and suspected GCA due to symptoms I experienced

Feeling forced to take pain medication
For nearly 15 years I have refused to take any pain relief except from paracetamol this was mainly due to being a single parent with 4 very young boys and didn’t want to not be in control of myself or become dependent on any form of pain relief. 2 years ago I was in a really bad way regarding the amount

Fibromyalgia and Lisfranc
Hi , I’m looking help regarding medication or health alternatives to manage pain. Here’s a bit of background after years of going to doctor I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in March 2020. In one way it was a relief because I honestly though I was going round the bend and I think my family though

Cerrelle constant bleeding
I was given the progesterone only pill because I can’t take the combination pill as I have aurora migraines and it increases the risk of stroke. Well I have been bleeding constantly for two weeks. I’ve been on it for 5 weeks. I can handle the annoyance of a constant period but not the pain and discomfort
