Taking the plunge
A very good late PMR morning (it was when I started writing this) to anyone picking-up this post. Having followed the forum for a couple of months, written 1 reply and gained an enormous amount of useful information, I am “taking the plunge” and introducing myself. I’m not a great social media user (

Post lap questiond
Hi, I have a few questions. Sorry for the long post. I had a diagnostic lap on Monday. I had emergency open surgery when abroad last May and they removed an endometrioma from my left ovary, simple cyst from my right ovary and my appendix. My pain was worsening so I knew I had endometriosis somewhere

Prostap advice required
Hi ladies, hope everyone is as ok as they can be. I wonder if anyone can help? I'm due for my first prostap injection on the 23rd May and I've read, and heard from an Endo sufferer, that it can cause a flare up before it shuts your cycle down. What I forgot to ask her was how long after the injection

Could it be fibromyalgia
Hi. Well where to begin! I have Hypothyroidism, am medicated and therefore I expect my levels are as good as they can be. However, the pain I experience day after day, which I thought were due to the thyroid, could possibly be due to fibromyalgia. I went to the Nurse at my local practice who I had never

Pulmonary Hypertension - can DHA in fish oil reduce arterial pressures?
I have discovered something that I think is very important and I just want to share the info. For those who just want the take home message - reducing Omega 6 in the diet and increasing Omega 3 (specifically by taking the DHA in fish oil) can possibly reduce arterial pressures. Everything you think is

Knee pain
Hello 👋 Sorry to post another post about knee pain but I’m looking to see if anyone has had a similar experience and what they did about it. A couple of years ago I used to run and could comfortably do so for around 30 minutes (I was also attending a gym at the time and doing weights). I let myself

Methotrexate & Supplements
I’m a bit confused by conflicting advice on whether it’s ok to take supplements with methotrexate. I’m on 17.5mg injections once a week. And I take Glucosamine, Chondroitin, Cod liver oil, MSM, turmeric and Vitamin D every day. I also take Folic avid (but not on methotrexate day). My sister who is newly

15 days post lap, in more pain
I'm 15 days post lap (was an extensive procedure) and am starting to wonder if everything is alright. Since surgery, I have been in pretty much constant pain and nausea - from the moment I wake up to the last thing I experience before sleep: pain. The type of pain does fluctuate though, between stinging

CBD oil - Our experience
Hi folks I just thought I would share our experience of CBD oil. Liz was more able to talk today. (This varies and the CBD oil has not helped this.) She said with CBD oil she: Had less pain lifting her head and in her shoulders. Had less stiffness and rigidity. Was able to lift her head and use her

Any advice please?
Diagnosed PMR August 2015 and started on 15 mg Pred. After approx 8/9 months developed pain in right buttock. Have always been told this is not due to the PMR and encouraged to reduce steroids. Physiotherapy has not helped but physio did help with some muscle weakness I had at that time and that

CBD OIL ! Hi anyone know anything about the oil ? Selling in Holland & Barrett at a legalised low dose in UK now! Advise please in pain 🌸
I’m interested in any information from anyone who has tried it or thinking of trying it. As I am, if I get ok from my Dr with interactions with my drugs I’m thinking of it as I can’t take anti inflammatorys due to only having one damaged kidney and hate taking all the opioids for joint pain as they make
