Osteoporosis and MS.
Hi everyone, Is anybody on
Forsteo
(osteoporosis) and Gilenya (starting this drug next week for MS) ? I am a bit apprehensive as Gilenya lowers your immune system and
Forsteo
carries a risk of bone cancer. I would like to know whether combining these 2 drugs is safe.

very dry eyes
last year my eyes have become much dryer and I no longer feel comfortable in my own body. Use the warm compresses and Hylo Forte drops but by night time my eyes are red and sore. Any suggestions, my optomologist doesn't feel there's a problem but he's not living with it.

FORTEO for bone fractures
I’m giving myself daily injections of FORTEO since nov 06,17. Also, I have PMR/GCA. I never show lab results supporting my diagnoses; however the biopsy was positive for GCA and I have monthly infusions of actemra to prevent blindness and to allow me to get off prednisone. 7 mg now on slow taper.

HOW MANY SYMPTOMS DO I NEED FOR DIAGNOSIS??
Hi all, I am yet to be diagnosed but feel totally confused and upset with the length of time it is taking and how slow the consultant is in dealing with me. I had been feeling poorly for about 6 months, exhausted but had difficulty sleeping, flu like symptoms but kept dragging myself to work and trying

Sleep aid
I tried Ashwagandha and 3 mg time release melatonin taking Ashwagandha 400 mg at 8 pm (I take Azilect 1 mg 8 am) and melatonin at 10 pm. Instead of sleeping through TV I felt social and talkative not a bit anxious and sleep was restful and restorative. But next day found that after taking 5 mg Isradapine

I'm on
forsteo
and that has built my bone strength in most areas, but not in the right hip which is the one I broke. I have 2 more months on it. I am then going on a different injection given twice a year. Good luck everyone.

Update on Hostile Rheumatology Appointment: I Finally Have Treatment 😀😀. And Update on Punctal Plugs.
Hi All. In Janurary I posted my first post here - quite upset - and not a little angry - because I'd just had a consultation with a really hostile rheumatologist who was refusing further treatment following a severe reaction to hydroxychloroquine. I saw him on Wednesday (the third appointment since

Query re Teriparatide (Forsteo)
Hello all Had a difficult apptmt with consultant recently. One issue - he wants me to start on Alendronic Acid (I have OP incl one spine fracture) but I want to consider alternatives first.. I queried whether I could pay privately for a course of Teriparatide (I wouldn't be eligible under the NHS) and

Blurred vision
My gp diagnosed me with Sjogrens in January after seeing a Dr in the UK while visiting my parents last year, he suggested I visit my gp & mention this when got home, however because my bloods didn't show anything the Rheumatologist would only diagnose sicca ( never mind Mt tooth that snapped off) so

forsteo injections
I am now giving myself daily
forsteo
injections. I have kidney disease and stomach ulcers. My consultant says he won't know what to prescribe for me when the 2years of injections is up. I also have a chronically inflamed bladder, plus other health problems.

My eye shuts now but doesn't blink and i find i have to tape it shut in the day sometimes as it gets sore even with the hylo forte eye drops. i have a referral to the facial nerve clinic but there is a long waiting

Do these really work
Ok so saw optometrist who agree with GP that my dry eyes is down to tear production not oil glands. Recommended Thera tears capsules, vita-pod ointment, lid wipes, heatnask & covers & hylo-forte drops to a tune of $170 but hylo-forte doing nothing can still feel my eyelids sticking occasionally, I seemed
