Provera 10mg 3 times a day experiences and long term usage?
I have been on Provera 10mg three times a day since September 2012. I take it for 90 days then have a 10 day break before the next 90 days. I was told by my Gyne that 10mg Provera is fine to be taken basically forever.... I went to an Endometriosis information day and in one of the lectures by

Hi everyone, I'm new here but have a question. Background is a bit long, so bear with me! I have 5 kids, luckily never had any problems getting pregnant. I've always had heavy periods, to the extent that when I'm not on a hormone contraceptive I have to change a Tampax every 2-3 hours during the first

DepoProvera compatible with APS?
I just began DepoProvera injections to prevent ovulation due to serious bleeding after a normal ovulation. Is anyone else out there using this form of birth control and have you had any problems with it?

I think I am paying the price for the night out last night!
Went to a friend's 60th birthday party last night and was dancing the night away until midnight - not late by most people's standards I suppose, but late for me! Was beginning to have aches in arms and legs by the end and woke with various joint pains this morning! The pains were coming back anyway -

Steroid injection doesn't seem to have kicked in!
Hi, I got a Depo-Medrone injection over a week ago but it doesn't seem to have kicked in. Still in a lot of pain. I am on Methtrexate 17.5 mg. Saw the rheumy nurse last week who gave me the injection and said that the rheumatologist should review my medicines. My appointment with the rheumatologist

Does anyone have Autoimmune Hepatitis in addition to RA?
I have had to come off Mxt due to rising liver enzymes, but it looks like that might be a red herring. My liver enzymes were only slightly raised until 7 weeks after stopping the Mxt when they went through the roof! The docs were insisting that the drug was responsible, but they are now querying AIH

Could I have any experiences of treating endo with Depo-Provera please?
I have just come back from seeing my GP as I have found that the prostap injections I am having are giving me nasty side effects and not much endo relief. She has suggested I try Depo provera instead. I am due my 3rd prostap injection next week so need to make the decision by then. Any experiences of

Depo medrone (or medrol?) injection
Hello, can anyone tell me how long it could take for this to kick in (had it in my backside) because I understood from the rheumy nurse that it is usually about 24 hours. I am so glad thay gave me one (my first ever) but am desperate to feel relief. Thanks, Julie.

Good Times Bad Times
It’s been tough over the last few days, unfortunately my old friend Mr Susan (head jerking tic) is back and I’ve been trying to squash him with a slow nod in addition to this I’m still battering my poor leg but on the plus side about 8 out of 10 hits have been stopped using the new competing response

Follow up to initial hospital appointment
Had a good meeting with the Rheumatologist at hospital on Tuesday - although only saw her for a few minutes - most of my examination was carried out by a Rheumatology Physio! Have been advised to have a one off injection of Depo-Medrone to hopefully stop the RA from spreading. I have now booked this

It’s Saturday night, I should be out having fun, but I’m not, far from it. With regards to my mental health I always seem to struggle with the weekends, I’m not sure why this is, it’s probably the onslaught of really awful so called entertainment programmes on TV so therefore I’m left with my own thoughts

“I’ve got this terrible cold coming on He grabs and devours Kicks me in the showers” The Headmaster Ritual – The Smiths
The terrible cold has arrived but strangely enough my tics are having a rest, no more slapping or thumping myself. This cold has brought with it a big black cloud of misery, just hanging over my head. (is it just us Smiths fans who have the monopoly on misery?) I can’t think of anything that might cheer

Depo-Medrone jab
I had my Depo-Medrone injection at my GP's this afternoon. First thing he asked me was had the hospital given me a needle to bring with me as they don't keep that size in stock! Secondly he had to telephone the Rheumatology department at the hospital because they hadn't told him what doseage to

Newly diagnosed and about to start methotrexate
