Acupuncture: What do people think of it?
After a rather excruciating bursitis flare & a cortisone shot I made an appointment to see an acupuncturist. Anyone have any opinions? Any experience with them?

Immflamation cream/gel
Good morning. So n I've had a stuffed shoulder for mths now. 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. I've

OA Knees
After 3 years of PMR, I was diagnosed with OA( x-ray and MRI) in my right knee in December. The pain was awful but a cortisone shot made me feel vaguely human again, albeit with limited mobility still. That shot is now wearing off and , surprise surprise, my other knee is now playing up and very painful

Symptoms of Hypo?
Hi I have had hashimotos for a decade or so and have no thyroid at all so I know most symptoms but someone recently said in a post that losing collagen around the jaw is also a sign. I have to use cortisone on my face sometimes and I thought that was what was causing the deep lines that appear quite

For those who don't want to see my lumpy foot - look away now
I've been doing a little Googleing, I think what I have is Bursitis, it doesn't really show up here in the photo, but It doesn't actually sound too serious - ice, anti inflammatories, cortisone injections etc...I hope I'll be back in the saddle so to speak soon.... Next up Dan's groin...

Bruising and cortisone

Going on prednisone! I was placed on 15mg of prednisone and within days felt wonderful!
My GP put me on a quick reduction of dosage. However, within a week or two, my own ability to make cortisone was reduced, so I did not have this as extra. I started to have my symptoms back but my GP was adamant that, because I had said I was so much better, she could not imagine that the dosage was

Hi, suffering from slipped disc L4-L5 which causes burning pain down my right leg and foot. Had injection of cortisone two months ago. Unfortunately it didn't work but a course of Predinsolone did, worked well but when I stopped the pain came back. Tried Lyrica 75mg high as a kite, lower dose of 10mg
