It was cancer…. But its now gone…
What a day. I had the dressing changed over the surgery site, and the surgeon appears. The test results are back… It was indeed a very rare cancer, and thankfully, it is now entirely removed. I feel like I've dodged a bullet… Everything has gone onto hold for today, but I’ve been lucky to realise

Statins/PMR
I was put on statins 4 weeks ago due to high cholesterol readings at GP surgery. A week ago, I started experiencing muscle pain across shoulders, front and back - fine if I am sitting still but achey if I move in certain ways. I have been rubbing in Uddermint cream every evening as it seems to get

Pharmacist blocking prescription
I just want to have a rant. For 30 years I have had the usual frustrations of doctors constantly trying to reduce my dose but nothing has compared to this latest scenario. I put in my usual repeat prescription request with plenty of time because pharmacy needs a week now. It was blocked so I phone the

Ovarian mass continued...
Hi all still in limbo. I got my results recently of MRI repeated in October last one was March. The mass has only increased marginally in size. I have repeated CEA and CA125 so should get those results tomorrow. Last time they said it was solid but this time they said it is not solid component. I don't

Let’s see? Bowel perforation and GCA Flare ?
I’ve been absent for a while…Reader’s Digest Version to follow. Though I haven’t been posting, I’ve been reading for a bit, and as usual….” You raise me up,” and I’m grateful. You may recall I had shoulder replacement surgery in July, and my arm is in amazing condition considering the interruptions

Knee replacement - biologics
Had an appt with knee consultant today. Need a replacement done but he won’t commit to doing it until I get a ‘meds plan’ from my rheumatologist re biologics (I’ve recently started on Amgevita). He wants info on how long before surgery to stop taking it. I’m also on Methotrexate and Sulphasalazine but

What would you do?
Hello, I haven't checked in for a very long time because everything had been going ok.I've been on Prednisolone for 3 years this Christmas after getting diagnosed with PMR back in October 2020. Initial advised taper was too sharp, I flared very quickly and painfully. But, after joining this forum back

Pain still there over 5 weeks post excision surgery
People that have had excision surgery. How long after the surgery did you still have daily pelvic pain? I'm nearly 5 weeks post surgery and still getting daily pelvic pain. Would of thought this pain would have gone by now?

PIP advice
hello there. I’m looking for some thoughts regarding PIP. I will be 65 in January 24. In 2012 I had my left lung removed as a result of lung cancer. Ergo I now have 50 % less breathing capacity. I was retired early and had my pension was released. At that time I applied for DLA, and received the higher

Update on Dental Implant Surgery
A quick note to say that it all went well. I am currently on 3mg pred. The dental surgeon advised 10 mg the morning of the surgery. I was also given paracetamol and antibiotics. Tooth extracted, implant inserted with some bone graft. Not pleasant but it didn’t hurt at all. Followed the hygiene instructions
