Doctor makes it seem like I want to have surgery and not like I actually need it
After struggling with severe constant daily pain for a year and a half, a gynaecologist has decided to put me on a waiting list for surgery. I didn't go see him requesting to be put on a list, but he thought it'd be a good idea because hormonal treatment hasn't worked, and painkillers don't help. However

Rib pain
I have suffered with rib pain & pain top of my stomach since menopause 5 years ago. I have been to my gp but still no wiser as to what is causing the discomfort. I have tried heat pads & pain killers but neither helps. It’s affecting my mood lately & feel really fed up. Does anyone else have the same

Swelling & severe pain in toe
Hi, Does anyone else suffer with swelling and excruciating pain in their toe(s) during a elongated flare up? I currently have severe swelling, redness and pain in my second toe - to the point where socks are hurting it - and lets be honest, no socks is not a possible answer in this weather... Walking

eye issues
I am starting to get very worried. I have been on a once a month infusion for Actemra while reducing my prednisone. I have absolutely not head pain. The problem has been for months my eyes. I thought it was just dry eyes. I went to my eye doctor several times, the most recent he perscribed Steroid

Itching with RLS
I am now on 1500mg of Gabapentin but not seeing much relief. At my next MD appointment I will be asking for an iron infusion as my iron levels are just barely at 100. The biggest problem I still have is the itching that I get all over my body with it most active towards evening. Analgesic creams have

Sudden severe back pain
I am seeing a neuro physio. I have explained that I am experiencing an increase in body pain over last eighteen months. She has given me exercises. On Thursday, I experienced sudden severe back pain, so severe that I couldn't walk. I was crying out when I moved. I have no recollection of injuring myself

post-trabeculectomy
Even though my
eye
was anaesthetised, so I was not in
pain
, I found it very difficult to lie on the table for a long time and accept that someone was putting a knife in my eye.

Herbal supplements for bronchiectasis
Would anyone have any knowledge or views on taking cardamom for lung health. I’m currently soaking 3 pods in warm water a day then squeezing out the seeds and drinking it as have heard this is an ancient herbal remedy to kill bacteria and help with inflammation. I also take echinacea daily but am wondering

Pegasys Dosage Waste
I am starting Pegasys next week to treat my polycythemia vera. HU was discussed, but not a great choice for me to start on. My dosage is 90mcg from a 180mcg vial, the remainder is thrown away. At approximately $1,000 a vial I will be flushing $500 down the drain a week! Truly disgusting. Do your specialty

Cetrotide injections - tips needed for drawing up the solution!
Hi all, I've had a bit of a wobble today (more like full on meltdown if I am being completely honest). It's my second day taking cetrotide and I am really struggling with drawing the meds up into the syringe after mixing. I've tried it so many different ways... slowly pushing out the air bubbles, holding

Resulting in an internal bleed, partial iris detachment, abrasion and now pretty high eye pressure. I'll be honest I'm pretty

Recommendations for a good selenium supplement?
That's not expensive? Selenomethionine is the type I'm after. I currently take Viridian which is around £8/9 for 30 capsules. It doesn't last long as I take 2 capsules daily. Previously I used solgar but I didn't feel it was as effective. There's so many different supplement sellers on Amazon now

HIP REPLACEMENT SURGERY
Hello, Am booked for a hip replacement operation on 1st February. I had 2 knee replacement operations in 2017 and 2018. Although a hip replacement is supposed to be somewhat less painful and easier to recover from, I am dreading it for the simple reasons I have severe rheumatoid arthritis - so stopping

Back, Shoulder, Knee & Hand Joint Pain.
Hi, I had an X-Ray on both of my hands last April which confirmed I had Osteoarthritis in all of the joints in both of my hands. I have had shoulder pain in both of my shoulders for many years as my job is working on a computer. I started to have lower back pain in 2020 and always had pain in one knee
