RILP?
Anybody familiar with this complication of radiation therapy? I've been fighting with my left leg for the past 4 months with increasing loss of function. It started as a nightime drawing of my left leg across my body and has now progressed to paralysis of the quad muscles and I am now having to use

Apologies, this is a very long post! Statins are known by members of this forum to trigger/exacerbate RLS, although the NHS doesn’t formally recognise this. Statins are the most prescribed drug in the world, recommended for the reduction of cholesterol. Many doctors will say that they are essential,

From 4 mg of Prednisone to 240mg of Solumedrol.. in 30 hours....
I'm in the hospital contemplating the curses and blessings of prednisone and the whole family of steroids. I have chronic asthma and haven't had a severe asthma attack for 13 years. Who knows maybe all my prednisone was protecting me. I've been tapering slowly and last Wednesday had a routine visit and

I suffer from Anxiety/Panic attacks
Hi I'm new, and I have terrible anxiety/ with a bit of panic that has started up again, it's hard to eat. I have this tightness in my ears that drives me nuts and the only thing I can think of is my 25 mg amitriptyline isn't working anymore. I asked my doctor to increase it 50 mg since I have had it

Tachycardia?
As a follow-up to my last post about seasonal allergies and medication, my doctor gave me an injection of Decadron and Depo-Medrol (cortisone) for allergies. A couple days later while doing outdoor chores, I had a tachycardia event, rested, and had three more events in succession, the last lasting 15

Atypical PMG and Depo-Medrol
My rheumatologist says that I possibly have atypical PMG. My symptoms at their worst have been relatively minor. In mid-March I had a 120 mg shot of Depo-Medrol. It reduced my symptoms to almost nothing. They have since returned to a slight extent but are very tolerable. The rheumatologist has ordered

Hi all, I have had PMR 8 years and am currently on 4/3 mg of Medrol. My skin on my legs from the knee down are very fragile and bruise and cut easily.

How long does Solu-Medrol depress the immune system?
Hi, just wondering if anyone knows the answer to this question…? I have been messaging my neuro about so many things lately with my medication change from Tysabri to Ocrevus and 5 days of Solu-Medrol so I thought I’d see if any of you knew. Thanks! Jennifer

Eczema, Rosacea or both?
Hello all, I'm new here. After having several appointments with the GP with no result I wanted to seek some advice online before splashing the cash on a private dermatologist. I'll start by saying I've had eczema all my life (25, male) and as I've gotten older it's been manageable with a topical steroid

I went back for assessment really quickly. Being tired, I'm used too - but feeling like "Ivory Soap"was left on my face

Has anyone successfully used Dr. Peatfield´s Adrenal Fatigue protocol?
I have read several articles by Dr. P where he stresses that treating and optimising adrenal health is crucial before adding thyroid hormone. He recommends using glandulars or HC/prednisone (depending on how severe the condition is) for 8-12 weeks and then trying to wean off it and see if the thyroid

Positive vibes with less pain
Taking a different road today and going down the positive vibe road. Waited a week to make sure I wasn’t premature in my happiness. Went last Wednesday for bilateral fluoroscopy guided steroid L5 epidural for my back pain. I was definitely nervous but the physician doing the procedure was so nice

How much prednisone should you take for adrenal fatigue?
I have seen many posts here by patients treated by Dr. P in the UK and who were told to take either prednisone or Nutri Adrenals Extra or both for the rest of their lives. From the posts I´ve read, it would seem they were prescribed a full replacement dose of pred (5 mg or more daily). I consulted a
