Painful legs (burning sensation behind both knees)
Hi all Well, I’m hoping someone can provide a view on what is happening to me now! For the last couple of months I have had severe pain in the legs which has now started to become a burn behind my knees. It doesn’t improve or worsen on exercise and is particularly painful laying in bed. I used to

For [i]Off Topic Friday. [/i] I am trying more and more to express myself through my paintings, using this as a vehicle rather than groaning on to my wife. This is a mixed media painting of a sandy beach in south Wales. I am not sure how much of a backstory to give here, but . . . I have been

advice post lap
hi I’d be grateful for any advice on things you found useful post lap for endo excision. What kind of things did you wear after. I tend to wear tunics and leggings or tops and jeans but don’t know if they’ll feel too tight and uncomfortable. Did you find it easy to put on a top or was a button through

Help with "sick day rules"
Hello, It's been a while. I am struggling and need some dose guidance please. My normal dose is 10mg per day. I delivered Mark to hospital on Sunday for a planned Total Knee Replacement which took place on Monday morning. He's doing very well, no pain (typical of him lol) and he was discharged yesterday

A&E trip
I had to make a trip to A&E today because I’ve been bleeding consistently for 27 days with severe abdominal and back pains. I waited for four hours and came out with painkillers that I had to cry to be prescribed. I posted here last week asking for advice on what to do because I believe the Provera has

night time pain
Hi there everyone. Forgive me if this has been covered elsewhere, but I my sleep is being ruined by severe lower back pain./stiffness in the night. My neurologist has prescribed me slow-release madopar overnight. This is proving completely ineffective. The only reliable way I can get a decent Sleep

10k training run
Hi folks 🤗 just thought I'd update you on how my training is going. Today I'm up to 6k run I could pinch myself as never thought I'd get to do anything like that again!! Feeling good though wee bit knee trouble now and then. But nothing a pain killer and deep heat can sort. I'm joining a park run group

Flare on the way ?
I'm on a slow taper of 0.5mg every 8 weeks which has been going well. I reduced to 3mg from 3.5 2 weeks ago and things have not felt quite right . I have had some pain at the base of my spine, not all the time and in some of my fingers and my wrists too . Over the last few days my shoulders have started

implant Surgery Tomorrow
The dental surgeon says to take 10 mg prednisolone in the morning before having the tooth extracted and implant put in. She knows I’m currently on 3-3.5 mg and has PMR long term. She says the extra is to help with the anxiety/stress and that as my body likely isn’t producing cortisol of its own this

Nerve pain after icd fitted.
I had icd fitted on 1st June this year following cardiac arrest. For two weeks afterwards I had intense nerve like pain in my left shoulder. Pain killers didn't work but after a couple of weeks the pain stopped but in past few weeks it has returned not with the intensity of before but enough to wake

pain killers?
I was prescribed Meberverine to take before meals. Doesn't seem to be working. I had a really bad stomach (and back) ache 2 days ago .. and feelings of nausea. I was totally laid up and exhausted .. for 2 days. Still feeling the after effects today. I seem to get stomach problems about twice a month

In so much pain and feeling poorly
Hi folks, Last Friday while squeazing the edge of the mattress into the corner of a fitted sheet I had an excruciating shooting pain across the middle of my back. After that I could barely do anything without serious pain. Ever since, I've been falling asleep all day, had nausea, bloating & painful

Burning sensation in esophagus
This is a random question. I recently took a painkiller (coated Nurophen) for a headache without water and suffered a burning sensation as a result in my esophgus. Not sure if this was because RA does have side effect of dry mouth sometimes or if my esophgus is now inflamed due to my RA but I’m continuing

surgery update: 5am, and after the clouds, the Sun!
hi all. Back! surgery went ahead, and my horrible tumour is now gone. It will be a while though before i dont need bandages, but….. It … is… gone! I managed to spend just one night in hospital, and shocked I think everyone by recovering from a pretty heavy anaesthetic in almost record time. Medical

Wish I hadn’t got Fibro diagnosis. Doctors won’t listen now
I’ve had back trouble since my early twenties. I’m in my 50s now. From time to time I put my back out. I usually get stronger painkillers for a week or so until my back rights itself. Now I have a fibromyalgia diagnosis doctor will not give me anything at all. I’m stuck in bed. Can’t move can’t sleep
