prednisone taper
I finally got an appointment today with the rheumatologist-May 28th. In the meantime, I would like to get off the prednisone, but not sure how to do it. My primary Dr told me to take 10 mg, but I was having some pain, mostly shoulder and upper arms, so I increased it to 12.5 for the past week. I’m gaining

Had investigations for right ear polyp that had been present for over 20 years but making routine ear micro suctioning difficult (long standing over production of ear wax). Had hearing test but waited for results (October 2023). Went to concert 3rd Nov and mistakenly did not wear ear plugs. Very loud

Reducing or eliminating IBS symptoms
I thought I should share this, if your IBS symptoms is frequent stooling (not diarrhoea) you can try peppermint oil capsules say 30 mins to 1 hour before a meal (once a day) combined with deliberate reduction in stress and relaxation from worry; I believe it will work, at least 90% reduction. The best

Switching From Adalimumab to Benepali
After a few years with Adalimumab with increasing skin psoriasis to the hands and back of head one my rheumy has advised Benepali ...not because I love Italian food but it was havoc on my skin. I ask has anyone had a transition with these two biologics with any symptoms?

Start Adalimumab next week!
Start this drug next week after 2 and a half years of shocking hell. I was still playing football 5 times a week at the start of 2022, when a pain in the bottom of my foot stopped me in my tracks (now it’s in both feet, ankles, shoulders and back). Got diagnosed with spondyloarthritis. Long story short

Buzzing… how do you get used to it? Or rather ignore it!
Hi I’ve had tinnitus for about 5 years. It started with the hissing sound. After trying sound therapy treatment, I became aware of a tune in one ear. It gradually faded and I was told I had wax in that ear. I think wax helped block my sound as I had it removed and 8 months on it is just starting to
