Pain medication recommendations for knee & ankle swelling & inflammation
I find that swelling in either of my knees or ankles triggers my RLS. Since I had a knee replacement 6 months ago, the swelling happens frequently as both legs readjust to the post-surgical healing. A new study revealed that ibuprofen and other NAISDS can cause fatal kidney disease, so my GP took me

Help/advice about periods please!
I'm messaging here because I've been dismissed by male doctors before and I'm not sure whether to make an appointment or not. I've basically always had irregular periods but they've been getting worse and worse - heavier and more painful and I can never predict when I'll get it. Cycle length varies

I have been on benepali for 5 weeks and I am feeling it working at last! I am not in as much pain as I was 5 weeks ago. I am only taking one lot of pain killers a day and sometimes 1 naproxen, so much improved. My fatigue has nearly gone. It only comes back when I do too much or on a Friday before my

Private GP to get NHS referral
Hi Ladies I hope you are doing as well as it can be A quick question and a few background notes. Suffering from pain for 10 years. The pain got stronger over time and now lasts longer. Last couple of years in particular were the worst. So far I couldn’t get even the right painkillers from my gp but

allergic to most eye drops
I had a cataract operation to help lower my eye pressure as I am so allergic to the drops but unfortunately it didn't work and my pressure has remained the same at 20 in that eye and for some reason gone up to 23 in the other one that still has a cataract.I am going back to the clinic next week and think

I feel like a drug addict asking for pain killers
My endo hasn’t improved much and I have the fear I’m going to become addicted to codeine. I used to be on tramadol but I asked to be taken off because it made everything feel like a dream. I’ve been trying not to take them but when I don’t I get these horrible flare ups and I also just had my period

Sciatica/nerve pain when walking - what do I do next?
I am getting tired of this pain - and the pain does cause fatigue. To give context, I started getting sciatica in 2020. I thought it was due to less movement because of COVID. Over the couple of years, it’s got worse, in addition to elongated, irregular periods and brown spotting. I can’t walk without

Istents and cataract surgery but pressures still high
Hi, I'm new here and looking for some support and advice. I was diagnosed with glaucoma 12 years ago at 38. My pressures have always varied from 18 to 35 (when I was first diagnosed). The last 3 months they have gone up to 45 despite new drops. As a result I had a cataract operation in both eyes and

Shaking hands
Hi I have been diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy plus I have RA orRD and I have posted on here before.I’m struggling with both conditions now. I’m only on methotrexate plus the occasional pain pills. The peripheral is bad enough but the hand tremors now are exhausting and I don’t feel well most

Ovaries & tubes removed- 3 days post op
Hey, So I’ve finally had my op after it being cancelled the first time. Was in surgery longer than expected. I’m 3 days post op, yesterday was a pretty good day, today already feels like a really bad day. I was told after surgery I am not allowed my HRT back due to abdominal growths they had to remove

Tens Machine
Hi, I have endometriosis and adenomyosis and pretty much in constant pain. I am already on pain medication and morphine. I was looking into getting a tens machine but I don’t even know where to begin looking. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thank you in advance 😊

Help for 13 year old with constant migraines
Hi I am new here. I need advice for my daughter diagnosed with migraines last August latest preventative toprimate 50mg has stopped working. No painkillers help. Imigran nasal spray at acute attack never worked. We are awaiting follow up at hospital. She is missing a lot of school. She's eliminated triggers

Contact lenses and injections
I have myopic cnv in my right eye and had my first injection 12 days ago. I normally wear contact lenses but haven’t worn them since before my injection. Does anyone else have injections and regularly wear contact lenses? I know I’m probably fine to wear them again now but still worried about infections

Groin Pain
Hi So for the past few months I have had a pain in my groin on the right side that feels like a twinge every so often. This pain occasionally radiates as a dull ache to my lower back or even hips and on a rare occasion can be felt on the other side of the groin. I have been to see my GP and had a physical
