HELP WITH KNEE PAIN
I am 2 months into having a knee replacement & am still in some pain. I can walk without a stick but still cant stand for more than 10 minutes. Is this a sign of operation failure? When will it get better? I am very dispirited & depressed.

Hello Again
My oncologist thinks it may be due to a recent spinal I had for a total
hip
replacement
. My urinary issues only occurred after my
hip
surgery. I am pretty down, don’t feel desirable at all and wondering why am I on catheters now. Any ideas or suggestions?? Thanks a bunch.

Wrist Fusion
Hello Everybody I have had RA for over twenty years now, although initially it seemed to be held in control with the use of DMARDS, including Methotrexate, Sulfasalazine, Leflunomide and Etanercept, all of these had to be discontinued because of side effects i.e, infections and low platelets/thrombocytopenia

RLS Meds & Post-Surgical complications
I had a knee replacement a year ago. It went well, except my doctor took me off my Tramadol, 100 mg/3 per day, while keeping me on my 100 mg, 3x/day Pregabalin—it works well together. Instead he had me on 5 mg of Oxycodone every 4 hours. He thought the Oxycodone would an effective substitute for the

Medichecks Result and a warning about testing & HRT
Apologies for the long post (my first) and thank you if you manage to get to the end of it. Bit of history first (there's more in my bio), after 7 years of being bedbound with a diagnosis of fibromyalgia, I was finally prescribed combination T3/T4 in 2018. I hadn't had my bloods checked since 2019
