maybe not PMR!
hello - i saw my consultant rhematologist last week and he doesnt think i have PMR - or at least it’s atypical. If atypical then thats a management problem. So he says steroids are masking symptoms and also causes and im using them as painkiller so he's taking me off them over 6 weeks to see whats really

Prednisone masking various pain issues?
I have read prednisone does not treat certain pain issues ie “arthritis” yet I am also seeing many commemts about prednisone “masking” certain issues, seems like a contradiction, and resulting in a view that prednisone is a pain killer/anti iflammatory, for other conditions other than pmr, ?

I know Nitrous Oxide can cause b12 deficiency, but could Nitrogen Dioxide do it too?
I had low b12, took ppi and h2 before Mt body crashed. But I also realised that we did an experiment in the labs I was working in, when my body began to feel awful, around the time I started PPIs (before my body totally crashed months later) I know Nitrous Oxide messes with b12... Does anyone know

Final lap?
Four years on and grateful for that. Enzalutamide stopped working earlier in the year. PSA doubling. Lesion in spine led to pathological fracture and some pressure on the spinal cord.

Describing my Headache
Since my TBI 5 months ago I have just figured out what my headache feels like. I have struggled to describe it to my loved ones and consultants but Eating Fizzy sherbert is how it feels (but a painful version). This is everyday even with my pain medication. Has anyone had this and does it end?

I have recently been diagnosed as having RRMS. I have only had 2 relapses in the past year, both of which involved temporary loss of eyesight. On both occasions, my vision returned to normal by itself, without any need or medication to be prescribed. However, my most recent MRI contrast scan shows that

side effects of tapering
I reduced successfully from 7 to 6mg a year ago and have been trying to reduce a bit further recently. My 6mg was split into 5mg in the morning and 1mg at night. I decided to split the 1mg tablet every few days and got down to alternate days. Going lower wasn’t a success however; I tried once a week

root canal work while on zoledronic acid infusions
I have 6 monthly dental checkups, and for years all has been well. I had my first zoledronic acid infusion 28th December 2023. My last dental checkup was in March. A week ago I started getting intermittent pains in the right side of my jaw, both bottom and top. GP ruled out PMR and recommended I visit

During a conversation with my husband concerning my PMR, l told him that l was in pain that day. He asked why l didn’t request some stronger/more effective pain meds from the GP. So l made the statement that PMR does not respond particularly to painkillers. My hubby seemed to think that what l had

Nerve pain in foot
Does anyone else get what is more than likely nerve pain in the feet? It comes and goes like a shooting pain but has been a lot more frequent recently and it's not nice. At the moment it's like above my little toe. But it moves around both feet - and usually it was in the middle towards the upper part

Leg cramps
I drink a lot of Matcha tea with honey, also squash. One coffee breakfast but I still get cramp. My feet feel as they try to curl under, legs then feel heavy and cramp up to my hips. Last night both went very quickly and getting out of bed was very painful. Standing and trying to walk was laughable.

The hidden dangers ... the many routes to the IC ... beware of the cheese ... 🧀
It's the early hours of day 11 of my trip to Switzerland with my father. Ironically I can't sleep, so got up for a hot drink and a banana (after reading IP's chat post this week). I know screen time is not the answer, but I suspect I'm done for the night anyway. It's been an eventful week leading to
