Slow, slow, quick quick slow -to taper or not?
I've forgotten the name of the tapering method. It's come to me in an hour or so I am sure. Canada was amazing and exhausting, we've been back since the 31st May and are still recovering. Mark was diagnosed with OA in his knees in March. Despite steroid injections before we left, his knees did not

A condition passed through my mother's side of the family, my mother had it in her hands, she was an excellent sculptor, painter, etc, it affected her hands, very sore, I was living at home with my parents, the last of five children, unfortunately I have epilepsy [disabled all my life] I was on Topamax

scared
Iām nearly 2 years on from a triple bypass and now need 2 full knee replacements. I can have them done when I like as Iām fortunate enough to have private healthcare. But I am so terrified of yet more surgery. Family and friends keep telling me it will be a āwalk in the parkā compared to what I had before

This might be found useful?
I was on here quite a bit after a total knee replacement two years ago. Nothing much seemed to help that wasn't either an opoid or some other harsh drug. I decided to load up on Fenugreek water each day (one quart from simmering 2 Tablesp. seed in one quart of water, cooling, then straining-seeds can

Why has my TSH increased after several years of taking the same dose of Thyroxine?
Background - following RI treatment for an overactive thyroid I have been taking 75mcg Levothyroxine daily since 2015. At that time the consultant endocrinologist said that I should aim for a TSH of around 2. I have annual blood tests and the previous two years the readings have been 2.7 and 2.9

Buprenorphine vs. hydromorphone or other opioids
So I noticed during and after a recent TKR that the buprenorphine that I take for my RLS interacts with the hydromorphone that my surgeon prescribed for me for pain. First, when I was taking my buprenorphine along with the hydromorphone, the hydromorphone wasn't easing my pain because the buprenorphine

Atrial fibrillation after steroids
Has anyone experienced atrial fibrillation after starting steroids? 4 years ago I had steroid injections in both knees, and less than 48 hours later suddenly went into persistent rapid AF, having no previous history of it. I found some Dutch research that found new atrial fibrillation was more common
