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

Still in pain
I'm on co codamol and extended release 20mg morphine for my severe pain and I have been in this for a while and I'm still in so much pain it helped at first but it seems to be getting worse or my body has got used to these medications. I feel so bad as I have a little boy who's two and a half and I

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

Antihistamines.
Hi all. :) Does anyone have any idea which hay fever remedies are ok to take when you have RLS? I am taking Gabapentin and Co-codamol which work for me quite well now but I am very cautious about buying anything that might tip me back into hellish nights and miserable days again. Any help greatly appreciated

Dosage far too high!
Hi all. On Thursday just gone, I had a phone consultation with a GP (not my usual GP), explained to him that i have Severe OA, & the prescribed meds (Gabapentin) are not kicking in anymore. Explained how i was feeling, losing my balance, continuous pains etc etc. Told me he could prescribe Co-Codamol

Gabapentine and co deine withdrawal
Hi, I'm on day 21 of cold turkey withdrawal from gabapentine and co codamol. I've fallen into a deep deep depression because of the withdrawal of the drugs. My Gp advised me not to go back and is going to give me acupuncture for the depression. Anyone else Had depression associated with these drugs

Question. Can a physical trauma bring on an episode of severe fatigue ?
I'm 63 yrs old, & although I've only been officially diagnosed with PBC two & half years ago, I believe I've had it at least 20yrs ( when a blood test carried out in Florida, whilst on holiday highlighted high LFT ) . Up until 18 months ago I can say I was completely asymptomatic, but since then I've

Opinions and advise
Hello, I'm a 27 year old male who has been suffering with abdominal issues since the age of three. As the years went on it was noted by my pediatrician that I was suffering with stomach migraines (at the time) and was put on some type of migraleve. I do not know wether or not this drug was effective
