RLS Absence and Clarification
I have had RLS for over 25+ years, used and exhausted all the RLS medications, when neurologist prescribed methadone, five months ago. I am at 20 mg, twice nightly. About 3-4 weeks ago, the symptoms disappeared, and I am trying to figure it out, possibly the Group can help. I began taking the magnesium

Good Morning . I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis nearly three years ago . My private consultant started me on 15 mg of steroids for a month followed by a slow taper along with 15 mg methotrexate . I had a really good 18 months playing tennis and generally feeling really well with CRP around

Complementary therapies?
I have just come to the end of the chemo radiation and seemingly I now wait about three months before having a PET scan and a fibroscopy to see how effective the treatment has been and what might be the next steps. Just for my own sense of well being I am thinking about trying some complementary therapies

Chances are you don't take it. I investigated it thoroughly and even had a decent source secured. I only opted out when I was told it would nullify my medical insurance. Depending on whatever scientific report you read it either doesn't work, or stops/reverses progression if you start taking it before

Leflunomide neuropathy
Sorry about unfinished post. No dexterity, pressed wrong button. On routine appointment to Rheumi in June I asked about pain, numbness , muscle wasting etc in hands. He said unlikely to be related to my GCA. I was already unhappy with Leflunomide and said I was going to stop taking it. He had no interest

tapering too rapidly after synovitis?
I have now had PMR for about 3 1/2 years; several months ago my hands became very painful, and I was diagnosed eventually with acute synovitis. I was told that if I did not go onto high doses of Pred. I might lose the use of my hands, so I agreed. This is the regime I am on: 20 mg pred for 2 weeks,

Neurological processing disorder from bacterial meningitis
morning, I was just wondering if anyone has had any experience with neurological processing disorders please? I went to the hospital recently for an auditory processing disorder but it’s now thought that this is wider neurological processing disorder that I need to be referred to a brain trauma specialist

Leflunomide and peripheral neuropathy
I believe my peripheral neuropathy may be caused by leflunomide. The bumf in the packet says it is a common side effect. Neither the rheumatologist, the neurologist or the pharmacist think it is the cause, and I can't see anything in NICE guidelines. I think there was some research in the early 20s

Metoject pens with Methotrexate
I have had 17.5mg of Methotrexate injected into my thigh once weekly with a Metoject Pen since January this year. Virtually ALL have had a problem with the safety release not working without the pen being tapped repeatedly on a hard surface. Too many have somehow leaked liquid onto my leg as well as

Confused About Prolia
OK, my bone density reading in December was -2.4 (osteopenia but VERY close to osteoporosis). Given that I was just on HT (Orgovyx) Dr Lam suggested I get on Prolia, which I did a month ago. So, this is supposed to improve my bone density thus reducing my chances of breaking a bone, especially should

Stay vigilant for PD cures
An example from my own experience. I am currently experiencing a kind of miraculous 'healing' probably (note this word) by reducing and managing a vitamin B6 deficiency. Suppose I hadn't been tested at the time and immediately, like so many, taken a vitamin B complex with P5P, I might as well have put

On demand Tadalafil or Viagra
Seeking advice from different people regarding results from using on demand Tadalafil or Viagra. I have been taking 5 mg of tadalafil daily since prostatectomy in September 2022, the tadalafil certainly does not result in what you would term an erection but does allow some engorgement of my penis.

Guilty or not ???
Today, after a few days of increasing pain in my neck, started on left side on Wednesday this morning also right side, I have taken extra 5mg Pred without consulting my GP who has previously indicated he was happy for me to manage my medication. For about 4 weeks now I have managed with 6mg Pred, so
