Severe foot pain for over 2 years- in my 30's and can't run errands
The joint itself doesn't hurt normally, but hurts now after having ultrasound therapy and
cortisone
shot. The
cortisone
was over a week ago. The physical therapy several weeks ago.

First NHS Endo visit
Well how did it go, ok he didn't discharge me outright so that's good! He did ask some pertinent questions such as family medical history and as far as I know no-one in my immediate family has had any known thyroid issues but my mum has rheumatoid arthritis as did my Dad so the likelihood is that I've

Latest on swelling on foot
He said I could have bunion surgery if I wanted or go & get
cortisone
in my knees. But no explanation or pain relief at all. Do you think that already having Fibro that you get labelled as being a fusspot?

T3 is making me unwell
Hello all, I have Hashimoto and recently managed to get a referral to an endo. I got T3 as I have conversion issues. At the time of appointment he increased my levo from 100 to 125 mcg daily. then I got a letter saying to reduce it back to 100mcg and add 10mg of T3. I take 2 x 5mg pill one in morning

Statin
My knee was swollen so I got a
cortisone
shot thinking that would help the pain and it did but now I feel worse everywhere else. Could this be from the statin I've been prescribed? Well, I feel it is so I'm not taking a statin ever again. I use to be very active and now I can't even get out of bed.

has anyone had a problem with bone fractures?
I've had 7 foot x-rays, 5 MRI's of foot, ankle, and leg, 7 ultra sounds of leg, 8
cortisone
shots, Physical therapy, Tens unit treatments, etc. And no doctor seems to make a connection with any of this and why it all has been happening in my right leg and foot.

MOD Report Fibromyalgia - Gov.uk
Hello fellow members ! A handy document to reference to maybe? 3.1. No single specific cause of FMS has yet been identified. The absence of any peripheral pathology and the presence of widespread tissue hyperalgesia suggest a central mechanism for the syndrome rather than some pathological process

Immflamation cream/gel
The docs answer is to up the level of my gebapentin as I have had a
cortisone
inj a couple months back. The fact I can't lift a kettle without extreme pain seemed irrelevant.... I've tried freeze spray with VERY temp pain alleviation.
