Back Pain
Can anyone tell me what painkillers I can take for persistent low back pain. I have tried most of them but for some reason nothing seems to work. I have heart failure and CKD, so can’t take Ibuprofen. At the moment I’m on dihydrocodiene and paracetamol which I know is strong but unfortunately it doesn

Advice for pelvic pain please!!
I'm a 29 year old female who has been suffering with issues with my bladder for around 5 years. I've not had any children and never been pregnant. 5 years ago I started getting re- occuring UTI's quite regularly and was referred to a urologist. I, then, started to get bladder incontinence- I was sent

Second opinion Dr implies no Endo!
Hi Everyone! So I work abroad on and off and in the UK, I was ‘kinda’ diagnosed with endometriosis, based on a teeny tiny left side ovary cyst they found and the fact that my womb or something was stuck to the back wall of something (uterus?) 🙈🙈 so in the country where I am working, I finally managed

update on statins, Leflunomide & biphosphates
this is a good news story of me ready to charge at doors which gently and easily opened! Over the last 3 weeks I have spoken to and seen three medics who I expected to push me into drugs I didn’t want. Medic 1 - my GP who discussed statins, agreed my cholesterol was borderline and that statins were

Multiple conditions leading to burnout
Hi everyone, Any constructive advice welcome. To give context, I have PCOS, endo, degenerative discs, lymphocytic colitis and my gynae now thinks I have adenomyosis too. I also suffer with frequent migraines. My consultant has recently advised I am likely to need a hysterectomy and has discussed injections

Hello, My name is Amie and I am new to the group. I was just diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis in January. So far it has been a very painful, scary and frustrating experience! I never had any symptoms up until January and have been in horrendous pain ever since. Doctors in the hospital treated me

Confidence getting out and about
Hi all. Not looking so much for solutions as to share thoughts in a safe space (that of the 'Fellow Bewildered', as someone put it). Today I had the worst symptoms I've had in a while. Not so much the headache (which is something), but was so, so tired I think I could have stayed in bed for twenty

Before being diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, I was diagnosed 200 Dihydrocodeine a month as well as pregabalin. I became addicted to both and started taking 30+ 30mg Dihydrocodeine a day as well as 6/150mg pregabalin. I went to Change Grow Live and I am now 6 years clean. I have spoke to my doctor

Hi Folks, I’m Darrell a Fibro Warrior.
Took a very long time to get diagnosed, put on Painkillers initially didn’t work so had to get off them! Then put on Gabapentin and later on Pregabalin which I’m still on but reducing due to horrendous weight gain! On a low dose Citilopram to keep my head together. I’ve had CBT, Hypnotherapy and Talking

Last three days a complete washout exercise wise.
So, despite things generally moving fwd and progressing, I had a set back this week.My daughter who is a nurse, brought her work home with her ! In the shape of a d & v bug. She had 48 hrs off work (she's never sick !) but was in a hell of a state. A couple of days later, I start feeling rubbish. No

chronic pain
I’ve been suffering from longtime, unrelenting chronic pain for more than 30 years. The pain levels have become intolerable. No intervention or painkillers work. I have had major shoulder surgery two months ago which wasn’t a success. I now face having a total shoulder replacement. The pain is excruciating

Probably had fibro for over a decade, new diagnosis few months ago. Bitter/sweet diagnosis, I feel 'seen' in some aspect, having had blood tests etc for years without any suggestion of a reason for feeling widespread pain & low mood/energy. So to get a possible reason, was weirdly somewhat of a validation

Painkiller for after Dental Procedure
So next week I’m going to my dental surgery to get three tooth implants. The first session is when they drill metal rods into the bone. Once the local anaesthetic wears off it’s very painful. I’ve had one done before now this time three at once!! Last time I didn’t know about my CKD so as I can’t take

bleeding coming of prostap
can anyone help…. so I stopped taking prostap in October (last injection end of October) and had no period yet but I did have some signs of ovulation! 2 weeks ago I got a positive pregnancy test but since then have done several tests and they have all been negative so I am assuming it’s a false positive
