Another plea for abatacept experience
I had always maintained my RA with NSAIDs with the occasional
cortisone
jab, but in the last four years, I have tried embrel, leflunomide, toxillizumab and now abatacept.

Fed Up!
Cortisone
injections have been mentioned, but I don't fancy needles being shoved into this sensitive area thank you!

Pain means something IS wrong!!!
No use going to see my GP, as I know I would be told to take pain killers and anti-inflammatory tablets and maybe given a
Cortisone
injection, hence a visit to my Chiropractor.

Still feeling angry!
My sister is even convinced that the
cortisone
injections my Rheumy gives me is detroying my body. This is pushing me further away from them. I dont want to feel this way about my parents, they need me and I need them. Thankfully I have a wonderful husband.

Suspected allergy to 'preventer' inhalers - what to do next?
To make matters a bit more complicated the doctor suspects I have an allergy to
cortisone
type steroids as it runs in my family.

Solution found for exercise induced asthma
He put me on a
cortisone
inhaler which after 2-3 weeks had eliminated the asthma I was having during normal day to day activities but I still was getting breathing difficulties when running. I went back about 10 days ago and had a lung function test which was normal.

Yucca
One of my neighbours showed me a little bit of an article about vitamin supplements and it says that Yucca ""is rich in steroid-like saponins that elevate the body,s production of
cortisone

Admitted for low cortisol levels?
I'm scared! Maddie went into hosp yesterday as an out patient for some bloods to monitor glucose tolerance. They also took bloods for cortisol levels etc while they were there. They also looked for diabetes insipid us too. We were sent home and told the results would be back Friday. Anyway, last night
