pain management
Hello everyone, I hope everyone's coping OK. I have a question re Pain Management Solutions. Do they ever prescribe painkillers to patients or do they work on an alternative self help programme exclusively ? I've been coping with chronic FM by taking Co-Codamol and Amitryptiline but perhaps it's time

New diagnosis...SO many questions?? Stage 4 endo
After many years of debilitating Period pains I thought this was normal (opps!).

I finally had a laparoscopy & hysteroscopy on 31/05/17, they

Please give me advice if you can.
My joint pain is so much worse lately! But the nearest appointment the rheumatologist could give me is July 20th! Co-codamol isn't working! I have a pill review booked in a weeks time for my new anxiety medication but the doctor I'm seeing is kind of harsh so I'm reluctant to ask her for any pain relief

Hi everyone :) I know it's an extremely personal question but I was wondering what medications you take to deal with all the lovely symptoms that EDS brings? Especially the pain? Because I've been on 30/500 co-codamol for 2 years and I still get the drowsy side effects (doesn't really help the fatigue

Diagnosed after suffering horrific pain from age 10 - 34. I was fortunate that the depo relieved my symptoms.
I am after some advice I finally had a laparoscopy 17.03.2017 and was diagnosed with endometriosis after a long hard draining fight with my gp and local nhs. I have been on no contraception since November 2016 and have not caught pregnant. Since my operation I have been in pain and told as per the last

Hello I am new here.
I have been suffering with Fibromyalgia for three years and only now have been properly diagnosed a few months ago after changing my doctor.

Recently diagnosed with FM & Osteoarthritis.
Hi all, new to the site. I have recently been diagnosed with FM. Taken 18 months to get an answer from Dr's. Also have Osteoarthritis. I am finding it so so difficult to adjust and accept that the things that I used to do, I can no longer do. My mind still wants to but my body can't. Does anyone know

Letter to GP from Connective Tissue Clinic
I spoke on the phone to my GP about whether he had a report following my 30 March appt. I'll see him to get a copy of the letter but this is what he's told me as "good news". ANA down "a little". Diagnosis is query mild lupus/scleroderma, with definite secondary Raynaud's, plus OA lower spine, hips,

Prednisolone 'come down' vs flare?
Hi everyone, Just before Christmas, I experienced a bad bout of costochondritis, which ended up with me being off sick from work for a few weeks. My regular rheumy refused to give me steroids, saying that because I'd never had them before there was no evidence they would work for me (?!?!?), so I had

Back pain
Good morning everyone and I wish you all a pain free and peaceful positive day! I haven't posted in a while, I have been busy with family, counselling sessions and a new addition to the family, a Puppy 🐶 I am not so sure it was the wisest decision, she is gorgeous and cute, but, high energy, mischievous

Pregabalin
Does anybody know if I can take co-codamol with 25mg pregabalin if so how much? I have been advised to reduce the neupro patch. I am now on 1mg from 3mg but suffering badly with rls especially at night. The pregabalin doesnt seem to make any difference. Thank you

a rant..because i have to..
So a few days ago I was sat on a train,staring blankly out of the window trying to read the graffiti on the walls and bridges anything really to take my mind off the pain and block out the constant chattering of the many on their mobiles. I sank into my seat and attempted to close my eyes,perhaps I thought

Varraces banded
Hi everyone, I am new here, and my question is, should I be in so much pain after having two varraces banded two days ago? It is agony to eat and drink and the pain also comes in spasams at other times. I am real very uncomfortable, but frightened to take much co-codamol. This was my first endoscapy

I have been on zero prednisolone (to treat PMR) for 5 weeks. Over nearly 4 years this is my fourth attempt on a tapered reducing programme due to 3 flair ups. The rheumatologist specialist thinks the PMR has 'burnt itself out' and suggests I take anti inflammatories whilst my system

VSL#3
Some time ago I bought some VSL#3 probiotics to see if it helped the gastric problems, and said I'd report back. First of all, a period of having difficulty getting anything down meant I didn't take it ( that stuff is too expensive to waste). Now, I've got through the best part of a month's worth. Please
