Amitriptyline
Hi all, I've had ibs -c for many years. Last year I was in so much pain in my hips my doc sent me for an xray it turned out to be an impingement. My doc gave me amitriptyline as a painkiller. Oh my word they worked wonders. I was regular as clockwork no bloating. I had been on a diet with no weight loss

Hello, This post is going to sound really trivial and vain, however I promise I am not at all in the slightest. I am 33 and have recently had double presserflo micro shunts fitted and we are 9 months on and my eyes still feel tender when I touch my eye lids. My consultants response was not to

How to increase scarring after trabeculectomy
My husband (30m) had a trabeculectomy in his left eye in August 2023. It is now November 2023 and the IOP is only up to 7. His vision in that eye has never recovered (it does temporarily if he does something a little strenuous like walking up a steep hill). The consultant has said that to prevent

Bad day
Hi everyone, sorry to be a bit negative today but Iām feeling very alone. Does anyone else feel like they are full to the brim with worry and exhaustion all the time that can be contained and then it takes just one little extra drop of worry to totally send them over the edge and overwhelm? Im having

Oral care tip
Just to share in case it helps someone: My mother has very advanced disease and her tongue doesnāt move well; she has difficulty swallowing and her mouth is usually open, so she mouth-breathes all day. She is immobile and nonverbal and stays in a care facility. On her last trip to the dentist (a caregiver

Did I cause my PA?
So! I was visiting my doctor yesterday and voiced my concerns about gabapentin as he wants me to up the dose as says I can have up to 3000 mgs aday. I'm resistant having read what I have on the F/B gabapentin page. I told him I preferred to take daily b12 injections to treat my PA than take more painkillers

Health update
Well, the BIG news is that I did NOT slip a disc. The doc said I severely strained the muscles from my knees all the way to my lower back. The pain is almost the same as a slipped disc, but the timescale dramatically different. She said it could take 4-6 weeks. And if I didnāt feel noticeably better

Shingrix vaccine for immunosuppressed people aged 50+
I thought I would just post this from the gov.uk website because I have just a bit of struggle convincing our surgery that I was eligible, so maybe other people haven't been invited either.

narrow angles
Hi, first post on this forum, new to all of this. On a recent trip to the opticians, my wife (56) was referred to our local eye clinic with narrow drainage angles. Her ocular pressure is ok and there are no other abnormalities. The referral was quick and she had an appointment at the clinic within

Permanently damaged vision due to dry eyes?
I've had Limited Scleroderma for about 12 years. A year ago, I noticed that the vision in my left eye had become blurred. 3 opticians and 4 opthalmologists later (because I never see the same person twice, and every one starts at the beginning - what a ludicrous system), we have finally reached the

ibuprofen gel
Currently unable to contact a pharmacist or doctor. Does anyone know of a topical pain killer gel I can take whilst on anticoagulants? Apparently, ibuprofen gel is a no-no. Thanks Thanks everyone, pharmacist confirmed I can use Deep Heat, Heat Patches and or, paracetamol.

Wife's in Chronic pain.
Wife is bed bound with an ongoing degenerative spine condition which is causing chronic pain. Our doctors will not subscribe the only effective pain killer which is Fentinol Patches. Other patients in our area whom are in less pain are prescribed patches so we feel really upset with Doctors actions

GCA diagnostic dilemma

Sudden painful lymphnode on neck
Hi all,I have been on W&W for a couple of years now and all good for now in terms of b symptoms with only slight enlarged lymphnodes. However, a few days ago a lymphnode on the left side of my neck has suddenly enlarged and become extremely painful- I cannot even touch it. Could this be CLL related or
