Are Pain Management Clinics any use?
After being temporarily discharged from the hospital until I lose the weight I need for a laparoscopy, it has been suggested that I ask to be referred to a Pain Management Clinic as all the pain killers I've tried don't work for me. I'm currently on Tramadol and Co-Codamol so I'm not sure what more they

Ibuprofen advice
Hi all So yesterday I found out I am going to be a mum for the first time. Me and my husband are so excited! I think it's still really early stages as I predict I'm about 4 weeks - a long way to go!! Over the last couple of months I have been suffering with back pain and recently went to a chiropractor

I am on Decapeptyl and Livial. How long does flare up last?
I had my first decapeptyl injection on 24/2. It was my painful week and the flare up started from day 2 and I pass out because of pain. When I had Zoladex 2 years ago I remembered that the flare up wasn't this bad but I didn't have it on my painful week. I forgot about the flare and the consultant

I don't have Fibromyalgia anymore.
Hi, I stumbled across this site whilst looking up something on the NHS website. I just wanted to let you all know how I got my Fibromyalgia under control.

I was wondering ???
If I applied for pip can I apply for hc1 as well to help with perscriptions ? . As I've had fibro for 14 years which has effected me and my whole family , so I thought I'd apply for what I think I'm entitled to, as struggled long enough. I'm on preglaban think that's how you spell it, which I had to

Has any one been prescribed steroids to help with fibro symptoms? I met a chap who said he used steroids from the GP and within a day all
symptoms were gone. I have been diagnosed two months ago. I take co codamol naproxen and amitriptaline. They do help. But still have pain and difficulty sleeping.

Done and dusted.
Just to let you know the operation on my foot went very well and the surgeon is pleased. Have to wear a "boot" for 6 weeks - the first 2 weeks day and night. I call it my Manola Blahnik. It is large, heavy and cumbersome and makes you lopsided but did manage to wash my hair yesterday without toppling

CNS Vasculitis - Stopping medication
It's just coming upto 4 years ago since I was diagnosed with CNSV. I me with my consultant last month, who suggested that it maybe time for me to wean off of the meds as I have had no flares. He said he'd discuss it with my rheumatologist in Oxford and to carry on taking the drugs until I hear differently

What meds for pain relief with PBC
Can anyone say what meds we can use. I have read numerous posts, but everyone seems to have different ideas. ie. Paracetamol, ibroprufen, tramadol , co-codamol. Have read yes and no for all of them. Do we really know?

I am new to group, but having read all info on nhs I believe symptoms suggest fybromyalgia how do I get a diagnosis?
My gp and physio have been treating me for a trapped nerve in my neck but I have never been convinced that this is the problem. I have been prescribed gabapentin, naproxen and dyhydracodiene m/r and also sertraline for mild depression previous to this episode starting.... previously have had amitriptylene

Cortizone injections, and non steroid anti inflamitory tablets. Do they cure you, or just relieve the pain, leaving you with side effects,!!

Tear in shoulder tendon
Hi everyone, I have my own pain probs. but write this on behalf of my husband, he has had a tear in his shoulder tendon for nearly 2 years, he is taking naproxen 250mg twice a day and co-codamol 30/500 which he can only take when not working, as his job on the railway is safety critical and can't take

If you don't take any painkillers, does it make my body/brain damage?
It is strange question. I know. I don't think I can go without any painkillers now. However, when I keep taking painkillers and when those painkillers are getting stronger I feel a bit scary that if they get my body/brain damage. But on the other hand, would these severe pain we have, does these damage

Pain management while on blood thinners
Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience. I've suffered with neck spasms a few times an usually get them sorted in a few days with diazepam, paracetamol and ibuprofen, along side gentle neck exercise and hot and cold compresses. The docs said that the idea was to trick the body
