Did I cause my PA?
So! I was visiting my doctor yesterday and voiced my concerns about gabapentin as he wants me to up the dose as says I can have up to 3000 mgs aday. I'm resistant having read what I have on the F/B gabapentin page. I told him I preferred to take daily b12 injections to treat my PA than take more painkillers

Health update
Well, the BIG news is that I did NOT slip a disc. The doc said I severely strained the muscles from my knees all the way to my lower back. The pain is almost the same as a slipped disc, but the timescale dramatically different. She said it could take 4-6 weeks. And if I didn’t feel noticeably better

Which painkillers with prednisolone
I have just reduced prednisolone to the second stage 50mg. Headaches are not to bad but still there at times. Can I take painkillers, if so which ones. The pains are normally in the temple and forehead areas.

Alternative to ibuprofen
I'm 6 months post sct but my platelets are taking a long time to recover( only c40) so I'm not allowed ibuprofen or aspirin. I use paracetamol for most pain however I sometimes get muscle spasms in my neck/shoulder which I found ibuprofen treated. Does anyone know of an alternative painkiller that

ear admin thank you for letting me join this IBS site as it may help my husband to understand it, and me too. So about 3 months my husband was diagnosed by a doctor over the phone, and also to see a doctor at the surgery as he had been having tummy troubles. My husband has been prescribed Mebeverine

Wife's in Chronic pain.
Wife is bed bound with an ongoing degenerative spine condition which is causing chronic pain. Our doctors will not subscribe the only effective pain killer which is Fentinol Patches. Other patients in our area whom are in less pain are prescribed patches so we feel really upset with Doctors actions

Sudden painful lymphnode on neck
Hi all,I have been on W&W for a couple of years now and all good for now in terms of b symptoms with only slight enlarged lymphnodes. However, a few days ago a lymphnode on the left side of my neck has suddenly enlarged and become extremely painful- I cannot even touch it. Could this be CLL related or

Issues
hi there can anyone tell me if they have issues with their neck with ataxia as painful to lift
head
or just
pain
around shoulders & the back of the neck, I had MSK today & are putting a collar to help raise the neck chin. She told me it was another stage of my ataxia but I don’t feel it’s correct.

Does it get worse
Hi, I have had Tinnitus my whole life or at least as long as I can remember. I didn't realise that it wasnt normal until a few years ago. I am not sure how I ended up with it, my up bring was very stressful and my mother would often give me high stress painkillers to keep me quiet. I have read some research

This is some background. I was recently diagnosed with enlarged prostate. My general health is not good as I had a Triple Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair and also, last year was diagnosed with Heart Failure. I’ve also got Severe Spinal Stenosis which has returned following a Failed Laminectomy Spine

GCA or not
Hello, I posted last month about some
head
pain
. After seeing a neurologist, who could not explain what may be going on to my Rhumy thinking it’s not a GCA flair, my question is. If I just let this slight discomfort in my head go, do nothing and it is GCA is there any risk?

Suggestions for pain and exhaustion 2 weeks after radiation to C3?
Hi, I had 5 radiotherapy sessions with cyberknife on the C3 about 2 weeks ago. I noticed after the 1st session that the pain on the right side of my neck got more and more intense, from my neck down through my right shoulder. On day 4 I didn’t think I could make the last session, but I was pressured

Knee and Thigh pain
A question for all you wonderful experts. Out of the blue I developed soreness and stiffness in both knees and outside of left thigh. Painkillers and nsaids don't do anything for it. Sitting down fine but can't put much weight on them. Have app with doctor next week but in the meantime I wondered if
