Newbie - need some help!
Hi all, I guess I'm just looking for someone to tell me I'm not going mad... I have booked a doctor's appointment, the first one to pursue a possible endo diagnosis, but I'm panicking that I'll just get told to get on with it or put on the pill etc. I have been struggling with increasingly worse periods

Pain & swelling control
Hi folks finally started methotraxte 26/07/21. There were times when I screamed and broke down crying with the pain, sure other people had a similar experience, not helped by the hospital losing my test results and having to undergo the X rays again, which took some time to organise. Still get pain

Lyrica for pain
I have taken Lyrica for pain for about 5 years. I take only 100mg 2x a day. While it's not perfect, it does take the edge off the pain. Especially sitting long periods, which now I don't have a choice really anymore. I'm progressive MS in a power wheelchair about 98% of the time. I do walk a bit each

Update on oestrogen treatment for non absorption of liothyronine. A warning!
In November last year, I started seeing an endo privately for my hypo problems. He told me he was an expert. He was very definite that my hypo symptoms were due to me not absorbing liothyronine as I should. He was very definite that the cause of this was my having lost too much oestrogen when I went

Should I have the laparoscopy?
I have had very irregular periods my whole life, a couple of occasions I’ve continued to bleed after my period should have finished or my period returned within a week. I get a lot of back pain and feels like I have a fork scratching away at my uterus especially in the weeks leading to my period. Sometimes

Priorities for achalasia research
One of the exercises we have been undertaking in Achalasia Action is trying to work out what research would gain most support from those with achalasia. After all, people with achalasia are the ones most affected! So this is a brief summary of our work so far, and we would value any comments, suggestions

Accute Pain In Shins And Ankles
Legs! Recently my legs have been in severe pain. After a few hundred yards walking on the street my ankles develop a pain, further on and the pain moves to my shin bones and muscles. Then I have to rest and lean on something unless a seat is nearby. Purchased disolving pain killers from Pharmacy. Chemist

The doctors have given me very strong pain killers but they don't always work. Actually mostly they don't work. I do get fed up with this. Also my husband as I very seldom to

Failed Right Wrist Ulna Resection Surgery,Fusion w/ Tendon transfer at 32
I'm new here and I would like to share about my severely eroded & fused right wrist. It took almost 8 years before I was diagnosed with R.A and it all started with a right wrist pain that got worse over the years. Finally got great health insurance and a great Orthopaedic surgeon that tried his best

Pain relief
Just been prescribed nortriptyline for pain due to nerve pain that is causing headaches and such , has anyone used these and and are they good at relieving the pain or is it another tablet to make you feel weird and funky. Can honestly say I’m now a nervous paranoid wreck after going through encephalitis

Getting stronger
Tomorrow it will be 2 weeks I have been home. I have had a fantastic follow up by a cardiac nurse,who gave me a right bollocking. Firstly for doing too much walking and for not taking the right amount of pain killers. I am now doing 2x15 min walks and started the full paracetamol and codeine dosage.

Total shambles
I was due to have an operation on my foot on Tuesday. Have had the pre op and it was identified that my platelets are low as are my white cells. They said they would order up platelets. Upshot is the condition of my sleen which is enlarged has been an issue from day 1. I understand that this is a feature

Good morning, I have had a wound on the top of my foot since last year in August, of which it has been a bother, as I have been to several Doctors, who have given me the same sort of treatment, such as antibiotics and pain killers. I went to our family
