Mum recently diagnosed with inoperable PC
10th April was the worst day of my 21 years so far. Mum had recently been to the doctors with uncomfortable pains round her belly and back. She was sent for an endoscopy and CT scans. 2 days after the CT scan she got a phone call from a doctor at Treliske Hospital in Truro to say he has some news and

What painkillers can I take?
I've put my back out (ow)... I'm on bisoprolol and warfarin and have no idea what painkillers I can take, I'm not much into taking them. Back hasn't gone out in years but now I'm waltzing round like a crippled crab. I presume aspirin is a no-no and the same for ibuprofen. I have some elderly co-dydramol

Time Off for good behaviour [taking meds and not overdoing things] - I know I am extremely lucky. Not bragging, just saying its possible.
I have had troubles since February 2011 when my hips suddenly felt like bone was rubbing on bone. Took a few months to diagnose and since then I have had good days and bad. Looking back, I think I can see a pattern. When I was good I would start to doubt the diagnosis and push myself, forgetting

Still smiling :-)
So I had to change my rheumy appointment as I had to have an operation. It turns out I have breast cancer, and with my huge family history of breast cancer plus the type of cancer they've found in me, the surgeon is recommending a preventative bilateral mastectomy. I hope I look as good as Angelina Jolie

Too much sleep?
My husband has been sleeping a lot in the day lately. Besides COPD and oxygen 24/7 he has been taking co-dydramol for his rheumatism. The doctor has now suggested that he now takes co-codamol which will not make him so sleepy I am waiting to see if it works. As I type this he has been asleep for

Does Amitriptyline cause bloating, swelling, increase in weight? And is there an alternative for someone who has epilepsy and reflux?
Hi, I recently increased Amitriptyline by 5mg and after 2 weeks found my feet were swelling worse and not going down after a nights rest with them raised. I have not been able to get back to my doctor about this but it has made me wonder whether my extra weight could also be down to this med? I am

Toe pain - it sounds so trivial but...!
About four years ago someone trod on my toes very hard while boarding a train. I didn't do anything about it at the time as, even if broken, it would merely be a case of 'buddy-taping', which I could do myself. However, over the last year I have apparently developed arthritis in them - they are permanently

Any advice or support much appreciated.

PTSD
The hands on the clock were jumping ahead, eight, and nine, and then ten o’ clock… the shakes were getting worse as each hour passed. ‘That’ clock face flash-backed at just after twelve thirty and I instantly knew what was in store for me. I checked the time – it was 11am. I can’t go through this again

Painkillers
At present I am not on any painkillers. I was on Co-dydramol, which my GP suddenly took off me, not sure why. So without anything to take the edge off the pain life is a living nightmare. I was wondering what painkillers, if any, your GP has tried you on for FM. It might give me some idea for when I
