Swollen painful hand
I've had PMR for 2 years. Was started on 40 mg of prednisone. I have slowly gotten down to 13 mg. Recently I tapered to 12 mg but have not felt very well & suddenly my right hand fingers are swollen & very painful. This has never happened before. Is this some kind of flare?

Omeprazole and Gastroscopy
I have been having digestive issues since May, lots of indigestion, acid reflux, belching etc. It comes and goes, sometimes good, sometime not, I would say I feel unwell 50% of the time. I was referred to a gastroenterologist. I had a colonoscopy last year and all was clear. Gastro decided

Where does the blood come from?
Hi, I have endometriosis and with it I get bowel symptoms. The most prevalent is pain but I also get cyclical rectal bleeding. I had a colonoscopy and it was all clear they took some biopsies but results i probably wont get this year. I know this is common with endometriosis, but where does the blood

Omeprazole ...side effects...
Update of last post...all now settled thank you.Regarding omeprazole...spoke to GP this morning for steroid script, and asked if I still needed to take omeprazole on such a low dose of pred. He asked if I had ever had indigestion or stomach ulcers in the past...no. He was willing to try me on half my

Atrophic Gastritis
Hi everyone, I have deen trying slippery elm to no avail for general stomach discomfort. I sometimes feel as if I have a 'fist' moving around in my stomach. The 'fist'feeling then just stays perfectly still, I then feel like I need to stretch to accomodate the 'fist' and then it feels a little better

Iron blood test - definitive list
I got my recent blood test back, haven’t yet posted all results to my profile, but my ferritin was rock bottom (7 out of 7-271 range) so I’m going to get a full iron test before I share all the numbers here and decide my next med change. What should I ask for: Iron Total iron-binding capacity (TIBC

Complementary therapies?
I have just come to the end of the chemo radiation and seemingly I now wait about three months before having a PET scan and a fibroscopy to see how effective the treatment has been and what might be the next steps. Just for my own sense of well being I am thinking about trying some complementary therapies

I hope everyone is well or doing the best they can. I took a bit of a break just out doing my best 😊 Had an anxiety attack last night before bed but there were some circumstances that kinda led up to it that I let get the best of me. Plus I’ve missed a few doses of meds 🙄 I think that when I am

Cervix
I had my second pet scan it shows a mass on my cervix. I had a hysterectomy. 20 years ago. So with the MBC and now this I am a little concerned. Going to a OBGYN go a test. Hopefully maybe scar tissue probably not since it was not there in the first pet scan. Praying. Has anyone else had this issue?

Headaches post Gamma knife surgery
6 weeks of headaches on the side of the tumour and they’ve been getting worse. I’m due to see the original ENT consultant on Wednesday next week but and ideas why now? It’s over 12 months since the Gamma knife and possibly due to Eustachian tube disfunction. The pain is sometimes sharp and intense

Antidepressant question
I am currently on 2.5 mg Lexapro. Its great and takes the edge off. However, I did have some panic attacks and my doc mentioned 5 mg might be a better standard low dose. I want to take 5 mg but I am scared of serotonin syndrome or any side effects with increasing dose. Any advise? I have taken lexapro

Not impressed
Decided to go through my medical notes such as they are, and blood tests again now I'm more sensible again. All hospital consultations are missed off and consequently diagnoses. Oh, and there is a gp consultation noted that never took place. Basically my notes appear to be a mess. What really

Update on Nuclear Scan and where I am at now.
First: thank you all for the kind support I have received since - Much appreciated. To the Nuclear Scan ordered by my GP for suspect spread from bladder cancer to the bones. I got a call from my GP surgery today telling me Dr wanted to let me know, NO bone cancer found. Thant's one worry gone.
