Sacroiliac joint fusion
After many painful years I'm on the NHS list for sacroiliac joint fusion. Of course there is a 12 month waiting list. Has any one had this operation done privately? Struggling to find a private consultant in Yorkshire.

Blepharitis
hi I have rheumatoid arthritis, herpes simplex in my right eye and acute glaucoma caused by the treatment for my eye. I’ve now got blepharitis in both my eyes which has just started on Monday after my infusion for my arthritis. I went to the doctor and they said just use baby shampoo but my eyes are

Hospital admissions
hello everyone, I was recently admitted into hospital again due to the severe weight loss due to my IBS symptoms. Usual round of blood, urine, stool tests all of which came back negative for disease. I must be the healthiest person there apart from the fact I have dropped from 12 stone to 6 stone

GCA flares and eyesight
Thank you to everybody on this site – I have found it very helpful. I was diagnosed with GCA in September. I have to say my GP and Bath Hospital were excellent though it was a shock. My sight tested OK in the Eye Clinic. I started on 60 prednisolone reducing, and I am coping quite well, but I am paranoid

Anyone opted for private Cataract surgery?
Hi, I have seronegative RA and am on Benepali. Have just had a routine eye test and been told I need cataract surgery. I thought I needed new glasses but it turns out it's cataracts! Anyway my optician has referred me on the NHS via my GP but I'm wondering about going private as I have no idea how long

staples coming out from the colectomy stump!
I had a colostomy due to CT scan showing holes in my colon and abscesses on the wall behind. I began to have clear fluid leaking from the stump like a running faucet! I told the surgeon about it and he simply shrugged his shoulders and offered no advice. The leaking fluid stopped for a month. Now

constipation and tummy pain now led to food anxiety
My 9 year old has been taking Laxido for almost 3 years, she has a maintenance dose of 3 sachets. She has been unwell on numerous occasions while eating out. This led to a fear of eating while out which has now led to anxiety around food in general even at home an she will eat very little. We have to

Is there anything over the

central sensitivity syndrome
Has anyone heard of CSS. My dr said this can cause restless legs and stems from childhood trauma. Sort of crappy to think that yes, my childhood was super traumatic and potentially from that I still need to suffer.

Hi all. I have had concussion since August, after a fall when I banged my head. Although improving, I have a problem with bright light/glare
As above - I had a fall in August and banged my neck, chin. I am improving but can't deal with light (as in a bright sky), or glare. I also have difficulty when there is a lot of noise (as in grandchildren!). I can't wear earphones.... Does anyone know of research into coloured lenses and how certain

Interesting info
My husband had a dvt event a few weeks ago and had the usual response of heparin injections for 4 days,and put on apixaban. I commented to him that Apixaban will sort out the clot in his femoral vein .The AC nurse stopped me and said,no, Apixaban does not work on actual clots it prevents further ones

I have some questions that maybe someone can help me with.
Hi! I have recently had some bloodwork and some new things popped up - and I was wondering if it is lupus related, or something entirely on its own. I am currently on Coumadin (Warfarin) for several pulmonary embolisms, and now my hemoglobin is high and my erythrocytes are high. Also, I am now

GCA and Vision update
As you all may recall, I was started in 60 mg. Prednisone in October. I am currently on 40 mg. I have now had 3 (weekly) injections of Actemra. I am still very concerned about my eyesight. I still see double at a distance, though it’s not as divergent as it was, I can read again up close, though, without

Cataract surgery advice please.
I've got glaucoma and I'm very short sighted. The left eye has got the glaucoma. The right eye isn't affected much with it yet, but does have the cataract. After they fit the new lens in my right eye, my shortsightedness apparently might be rectified. This will give me an enormous discrepancy between
