I am new!
Hello! I’m a 57 year old woman who wants to lose weight and be healthy. I had lost 40 pounds over the past three years and hoped to lose another 15-20. Recently I put 7 back on and feel myself slipping back into old, bad habits. I have severe arthritis and have had several joint replacements. At times

Intro
Hi. I've been on HealthUnlocked for some time now and for some reason, my profile states I've not introduced myself. I've written a bio within my profile which summarises my journey with sJIA. I've had systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis for over fifty years and early on had periods of remission

Thyroxine uptake and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome
Hi all, any experience or advice on this would be much appreciated. I have been on thyroxine for 25 years since having Hashimotos at the age of 29. I've also been diagnosed a while ago with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and Fibromyalgia (both connective tissue disorders.) My new GP is messing about with

Ceasing Apixaban

Happy New Year
Not much to post here but felt motivated to greet this helpful community into 2024, my fourth year living with PMR or at the very least the dregs and after effects. Indeed I often feel as though I have a hangover! I have been pretty much signed off by my rheumatologist on a permanent 4mg of pred as he

Raynauds and Hypermobility
Hello, I've been diagnosed with primary Raynauds which is getting worse. I've had blood tests to rule out other conditions, but they've all been negative. Should I be pushing for a nailfold capillorthingy (technical term...)? I've also got colitis, irritable bladder, some joint hypermobility so I'm

Over 50
I have been struggling withy weight for years. I started putting on weight when I started depression medication. Now I'm over 50 still battling obesity. Growing up I was very active,but that has decreased due arthritis and joint replacements. I'm starting a new year looking for support from others.

Sacroiliac joint fusion
After many painful years I'm on the NHS list for sacroiliac joint fusion. Of course there is a 12 month waiting list. Has any one had this operation done privately? Struggling to find a private consultant in Yorkshire.

hip replacement advice
Has anyone had joint replacement after being diagnosed with MBC? If so, do you have any advice? I was diagnosed with MBC to the bones and liver July 2020. After radiation and several lines of drug treatment, I was diagnosed with severe osteoarthritis in my right hip a year ago. I had existing painful

Could my son have Ehlers-Danlos? Who to ask about diagnosis?
Hi everyone, I've joined the group today as I'm not sure if my son has hypermobile EDS and I'm not sure where to turn and what to do next. He has lots of niggly health issues which I'm starting to think might be EDS (or I could be adding 2+2=5). Since he was about 6 months old he has suffered horrendously

My story won't apply to everyone, of course, but you may find a nugget worth considering. I've had mild RLS intermittently for forty years until it recently worsened. I'd always managed it with weighted heat, L-Tryptophan, magnesium glycinate, L-Theanine, and if necessary, a little pacing. At age 36,

bisoprolol
was told last week that need a knee replacement- and am in daily discomfort so getting by with a nurofen or two. Has anyone else needed a joint replacement? And if so how did you manage pain with any existing meds. I’ve tried diclofenac but after a week it was undermining my bisoprolol and my bp was
