High Blood Pressure and Lupus
Hi, I currently have high blood pressure and I'm taking Ramipril but I'm also having a flare which is playing havoc with my joints. Everything I read says don't take ibuprofen or naproxen if you have high blood pressure and that these NSAI's reduce the effectiveness of Ramipril. Problem is that at

My story
Given the start of my Seropositive RA in 2005. I had bad experiences with most of the traditional RA meds prescribed. I never really understood why doctors only seemed to give medication which would suppress the immune system. Generally I felt this approach was making me feel much worse. So for many

Medicines and dementia risk
Hello. I'm 64 years old with a painful back problem (lumbar spinal stenosis, spondylosis and spondylolisthesis). While I wait for an appointment at the Pain Clinic, I was recommended by the musculoskeletal specialist to try a drug called gabapentin. My doctor put me on another from this group of drugs

is this a sign my meds are struggling or just how it is now?
Sorry for the long message but would appreciate knowing if this is typical or if I am being a little dramatic and unrealistic. diagnosed with RA nearly 2 years ago. Took a while but pretty much back to normal after moving to injecting 20mg MTX, 200g hydroxy and folic acid 6 days a week. Took just over

is everyone else not getting diagnosed or much treatment?
I’ve had severe period pain for years, when I wasn’t taking painkiller in time I would be sick and feel faint. I have tried paracetamol and ibuprofen in the pad which did nothing. I took naproxen 500mg which used to completely block my pain but now only stops it being severe. More recently I’ve been

The Temperature “Flip Flop.”
Hello Community Fam, I have a question for anyone experiencing the winter chill. PA is inconsistent with temperatures right now. We melted away the snow from last week; Saturday 55 degrees, this upcoming weekend chilly with temps in the morning around 27 degrees!

I've had period pain since I was 15 and each year the pain only gets worse. When I became 18, the pain became crippling. The pain will start mildly a week or two before I start my period. Then when I start my period the pain intensifies. I find it hard to walk, I feel like I have a fever then have an

Weekly Chat 22 - 28 January: jinxed it 🙈🤷♀️🛋️
(Edited to clarify I didn't really think I needed a hip replacement - I just looked as if I was on a waiting list for one if you watched me trying to get going from a stop! Apologies for any overdramatisation leading to confusion 🙈) Hello lovely VRBs. How's your week been? We'd love to hear all about

Flare with normal blood inflammation levels ?
Hello everyone, Just after some advice please. I began my PMR journey last February albeit unknowing what my condition was then, initially unable to get a correct diagnosis I was first prescribed Nefopam and Amitriptyline which had no effect to my symptoms, the Amitriptyline actually made me worse.

PMR or Arthritis?
I have been reading your forum since I was diagnosed with PMR just over 2 years ago. I have found it incredibly informative, helpful and comforting, but this is my 1st post. I was diagnosed with PMR after a couple of months of extreme pain and stiffness in the neck, shoulders hips and knee, to the extent

Duloxetine - cold turkey and afterwards?
One of my tasks in the New Year (after discussing with GP) was to decrease Duloxetine and possibly try something else as the hyperhidrosis side effects were becoming so problematical for me and, after working well for nigh-on 3 years they also now had reduced effectiveness at controlling my pain despite
