Cortisone Shot
I am getting ready to have a
cortisone
shot in my lower back and i was wondering if anyone else has had this before? I am not sure what to expect but the hopes are to be able to not have any back pain for at least a little while.

Piriformis Muscle
I just got a
cortisone
shot in my lower back which seemed to help the inflammation but now my piriformis muscle is acting up. I am inquiring about the injection done for this and if it has helped anyone.

Here we go again! Next stop - private?
It's been a very disappointing & stressful day. I saw an NHS Endo in July this year, he was nice enough but I didn't get the vibe that he was going to be a lot of help from the beginning. But I managed to get some more blood tests ordered from him with a follow up appointment scheduled for today. Well

There is a light at the end of the tunnel! Yeeh!
The
cortisone
has sufficiently masked bursitis & tendonitis to enable me to distinguish PMR pain as a separate entity, making reduction less guess work and more science! I think having a young new consultant with him seems to have done wonders to his morale!

What now...any ideas?
So I checked that out and discovered DHEA and pregnenolone seem to be the standard for adrenal issues, and mixed opinions over
cortisone
. I need vit d3 as well don't I? Oh and I am upping my protein because I realized it's way too low. Sorry for this long blah.

Has anyone managed to stay off thyroid meds after starting nutri adrenal extra and nutri thyroid?
Hi all, I am 12 days off thyroxine 75mcg and 7 days into taking NAX. I increased to 2 NAX a couple of days ago. I undertook the Genova adrenal saliva test that showed stage 3 adrenal fatigue with 2 low cortisol levels in the day (just under) and a low DHEA to cortisol ratio. I hit the skids 2 weeks ago

Palidromic arthritis
I have had
cortisone
injections in nearly every joint of my body and found some relief but it doesn't last very long. I have been told by my surgeon I have got 5-8 yrs max before I need to start having replacements, I am only 35. Has anyone got the same problems?

Cortisone instead of Nutri Adrenal supplements? I'm getting heart palpitations and a tightness in my throat & chest each morning when I wake
Dr P did mention the possibility of maybe taking
cortisone
, although I don't think he wants me to ideally. (I'm female and 35). He also told me about Dr Wilson's special stuff - anyone tried this? Any comments and answers gratefully received! Thank you and keep well everyone, Charlie x

Update on hospital appointment
He gave me a
cortisone
injection under local anaesthetic yet again, in the hope that it will bring some respite before I am offered a nerve block in July. Thirdly, I went to my GP for the results of the liver scan and blood tests.

Poss fibro/cfs
I was started on hydro
cortisone
but after about 3 weeks I collapsed into a huge heap. I ached from my neck to my feet so bad the I thought I'd been hit by a bus. Then terrible pain in hands and feet, sounds amplified so loud that I couldn't stand them. The same with bright lights.
