Worried that my 17 year old daughter has colon cancer
I sadly lost my brother to bowl cancer in 2012. After months of being told that he had gastroenteritis or tummy bug. He was then made to feel that he was being a pest, so stopped speaking help. My brother was 40 when he died and only lived for 6 months after they found the stage 4 tumour. They never

”CONFUSED” UPDATE
Well, I increased my Pred to 9 mg for 5 days but didn’t go straight back to my previous dose (4.5mg) but went to 6mg. So far the flu-type symptoms have gone but I still have a low-grade headache, plus pain in both shoulders and in the neck. I have tried taking paracetamol but this only has minimal

Steroids and Ibuprofen
I am currently on 7mg pred for PMR. I am also suffering from a trapped nerve in my back which I have had for six weeks now which has been VERY painful. My doctor has said under no circumstances to take any medication containing ibuprofen because of my steroids. Paracetomol does nothing to relieve

Struggling to get comfortable when sleeping
Hello all, my wife is exhausted and 1) She's scared to sleep in case she doesn't wake up and 2) The pain in her neck and shoulders from lying down. Now we've got a V-shaped pillow which she puts (normal) pillows on top of the V-shaped pillow but TBH this isn't working. Is she doing right or wrong? I've

G.p appointment
I have a g.p telephone appointment on Friday and I'm dreading it! He won't give me a face to face appointment as it's not classed as urgent, but it's very important to me. He just increased my propanol last time, which didn't help and have given me naproxen which make me feel sick. Can I insist on seeing

Fibro flare + teeth grinding
Hi everyone, any helpful advice/solution for severe teeth grinding and clenching? I tried different types of nightguards and botox and the situation didn't improve significantly. I am in the middle of a Fibro flare-up, and grinding got worse since yesterday and it is causing me horrendous headaches

BMB results
Just had a call from specialist nurse to say bmb results were in and they showed more fibrosis than the last one 6 months ago, but not full blown myleofibrosis, more likely pre mf. They’re going to send me a leaflet about it with all symptoms so I can see if I’ve got any. I’ll get an appointment to see

Epigastric pain
Hi all I’m getting a dull pain in my epigastric region, that’s kind of the area just below your heart in the centre. I’ve had it for sometime how and mentioned it to the cardiologist but they don’t seem bothered as it isn’t directly my heart, even thought it started after my CABG. Im starting to wonder

Nerves ‘nicked’ during bmb
I’ve spoken to haematology this morning as I’ve been having such a lot of pain since my bmb last week. I’ve only got to try to turn over in bed and it’s like being poked with red hot needles! Anyway the nurse I spoke to said it sounded like nerves had been ‘caught’ when they did the procedure, followed

Back, Shoulder, Knee & Hand Joint Pain.
Hi, I had an X-Ray on both of my hands last April which confirmed I had Osteoarthritis in all of the joints in both of my hands. I have had shoulder pain in both of my shoulders for many years as my job is working on a computer. I started to have lower back pain in 2020 and always had pain in one knee

PMR – A newly diagnosed story so far
Warning – This is a bit long and you may find it boring! I wanted to share my recent experiences as someone who has only recently begun the PMR experience. I am a 55 year old man who shouldn’t get Polymyalgia….right?? When my pain began late in 2022 I had no idea what it might be and put off going

Additional drugs stopped. Is this other peoples experience.
I’m on V and O. Well actually just V now. Having finished my O cycles. My consultant has stopped my aciclovir and Cotrimoxazole. My V will continue until February. Is this other peoples experience?

Muscles in lower back all rigid and locked up
Hi, the muscles around my lower back have been locked up for a few weeks now. I find using an electric blanket has helped. I also use "winter green' (methyl salicylate) sports rub, with limited effect. Taking a couple of Ibuprofen and a co-codamol help too, but it's still very immobile and limits
