To long to wait !
I also am due for my left hip replacement, the pain is becoming unbearable even while on 60 mg of slow release morphine and 20 mg of STATEX for breakthrough pain. I've been waiting for eight and a half months since seeing my surgeon and it had been nine months before that I had got the diagnosis

Good afternoon!
Still not sure if I have PMR but GP is assuming I have. Have an appt with Rheumy in a couple of weeks for confirmation. I wonder what your collective wisdom on my 'case' is? I'm male and 52 - so atypical candidate for PMR. A couple of weeks before Christmas I had a stiff neck which was so bad in the

Follow up to Hip replacement whilst on steroids
I saw the orthopaedic surgeon this morning and I have been put down for a hip replacement. I asked about being on 19mg pred and he said "No problems, we see patients all the time on steroids, we can cope" I feel that I have at least got somewhere today regarding my hip. I am to have physiotherapy before

I am supporting my wife in the long PMRGCA journey
I am here to support my wife in the long journey she has been on since being diagnosed with GCA in March 2010. Yes her condition has changed our lives particularly our holidays. But it's not all negative. No long history here, just to say the most recent flair up of PMR occurred after a total hip replacement

Starting treatment
Hi everyone, I went back to the clinic to get my CD4 results. I found that my CD4 is 188, I was told to start treatment straight away. They gave me Odimune. So is this the correct med and what side effects can I expect if there are any? I was not sick at all when I went to do the HIV test, even now I'm

Factor V Leiden
Hi. My dad has Factor V Leiden. He had a total hip replacement and just learned, 8 weeks post op, that the bone is not attaching to the new hip. Is this common for Factor V patients? Thanks!

PMR....RA??
I was diagnosed with PMR by my GP 3 weeks ago and put on Prednisolone 30mg a day. Within 3 days I felt brilliant...all swelling had gone from my eyes, hands and lips...the swelling was accompanied by a painful dark red rash which also disappeared. I could walk with very little pain for the first time

Neurology follow up appointment
Hi, community. I will be seeing my neurologist for the second time tomorrow afternoon. My question is: What should I ask him? He is likely to say that I should have muscle and/or nerve biopsy to investigate persistent muscle weakness. Has anyone with a similar problem been offered any different investigation

Tooth implant and antibodies
Two years ago i had a failed tooth implant. I did not know then what i know now, thanks to my endo referring me to this website. Today i read a caption in the science museum that stated that our immune system would eventually accept a foreign body such as a hip replacement. I wonder if this is still

Help with pain
Hi. I have had bilateral hip replacements. 1 knee replacement and need the other knee replaced . I have other joints that have arthritis too. On top of this I have polymyalgia rheumatica. It's hard at times to know which pain is which. I wonder if anyone can recommend some good pain relief to cover both
