Vasculitis/Tocilizumab
I have posted before regarding the fact that after a year on steroids and having many side effects I was told to reduce them by 1mg a month. My rheumatologist did not think I had PMR (diagnosed originally by GP). After 6 months of increasing pain and stiffness and down to 2mg I was able to have a

Asthma attack recovery
Recently I was told my childhood asthma is back and this was diagnosed due too an asthma attack that left me in hospital for 4 days. It has really been stressful as my asthma attack was about a month ago and I don’t feel much better. Still coughing a lot, wheezing, tired and short of breath. I was

PMR and coated Prednisolone tablets
Hallo Has anyone been able to have prescribed for them prednisolone tablets that are labelled as "enteric coated" or "gastro resistant" ? these can be taken without food, which would be a boon for me. If I don’t sleep very well, which is common, then I wake late and end up taking my preds about 10am

What happens when Adrenal Gland starts working
I am back down to, and hovering, at 6.5mg Prednisolone, over the past few days have developed a nasty niggling pain deep in the left side of my neck and shoulder. This pain is the same pain I hade when first diagnosed with PMR and is in one of the original places. My question is;- if PMR was caused

Sharp pains in head - lupus related or something else?
Hi all, I have general nerve pain in my head ever since I had concussion and whiplash seven years ago - so I'll get fibromyalgia shoulders and pains travelling up my scalp, particularly the right side. It's not that troublesome. But since I had my Covid jab three weeks ago I've had a few episodes

Palpitations
Hi all. Just had a horrible weekend , fast irregular heart rate, lasted over 1 hour . Of course it had stopped by the time I was monitored, so they didn't really have any record . Spent 2 nights in EAU wired up , lots of ecgs bloods etc. They reassured me it wasn't a heart attack . The flutters continued

The plexopathy continues
After speaking to the consultant again he is saying to maintain long term on a low dose of Prednisolone. I'm back I agony so I have to do something. The Gabapentin isn't helping in the slightest so I'm coming off it slowly. I asked if there was an alternative to the Prednisolone and he mentioned methotrexate

Pneumonia vaccination
Hi all. I have recently returned to Spain for the foreseeable future and managed to get my covid vaccination shortly after my arrival a few weeks ago. I had my flu vaccination in the UK just before we came out. I have to say that I have responded well to both vaccinations with no adverse side effects

Then got one symptom and we played with NDT dosages lower, higher, brands and a combo with NDT plus 10 T3... I transitioned

Rheumatologist diagnosis
Hi My Rheumy says my PMR is atypical with a normal CRP . My ESR is 39 . Which she believes is normal and it’s due to my weight - 14 stone . Wants to refer me to physio, this will be excruciating . The pain already makes me feel sick and like I’m going to pass out . She did ‘query’ inflammatory arthritis

Pred and unable to sleep
Hello. I often end up on several courses of prednisolone over the autumn and winter due to chest infections. Usually needing more than one course of steroids to settle my asthma back down I struggle to sleep with pred, especially for the first 2 - 3 nights. Does anyone have suggestions for helping?

Cutting a 1mg tablet into 4?
Having got down to 10mg I’ve been tapering prednisolone by approximately 0.5mg a month. I’m now at 1mg and looking to reduce further in a couple of weeks but a little nervous about a 50% reduction to 0.5mg. Has anyone successfully cut plain 1mg tablets into 4 to produce a 0.75mg dose or is there a better
