Pain and frustration 😟
Hello everyone, Having finally dropped from 5mg to 4.5mg I am now in my fourth week. I have no shoulder or arm pain and was beginning to feel like I’ve finally cracked the 5mg barrier(third time lucky). I’ve had PMR for 2years and 9 months. However, my legs feel in constant pain and I don’t feel

Mycophenolate reaction
Hello, I wondered if anyone has had back pain when starting this drug? I started just over 2 weeks ago on one tablet in the evening. After about 3 days of nausea all was going well, then I started with a low dull back pain. After about a week this was more pronounced- even went to get checked out for

Spasms/contractions at night causing intense pain
I'm 34 and have had endo symtoms since I was 11 when my periods started. Endo was suspected right away but I was told if I took birth control it would stop it from growing. Deep infiltrating endo was diagnosed earlier this year throughout my bowel and uterine ligaments and I'm having surgery in the spring.For

Hi I posted this in a different forum as unsure which one to use? Anyhow, for the past 6 months I have had very bad back pain which is impacting daily life.

I have paid for a dozen physio sessions and several osteopath sessions which have not been helpful unfortunately

Painkillers stopped working
Hello everyone, I've had fibromyalgia since 2021 and it's full body. About a month ago I stopped taking Amytriptaline and Gabpacentin as they were acting more like depressants and did make me feel like taking my own life to escape my profound pain. A week after I stopped the prescribed medication.

Just confused
I have spent 8 months or so trying to figure out what on Earth is going on with my periods. I’ve had three scans and a couple of consultations. Friends of mine tell me they just take two paracetamol and sometimes use a hot water bottle and they’re ok. Where I generally can’t walk, take extremely hot

Interesting info
My husband had a dvt event a few weeks ago and had the usual response of heparin injections for 4 days,and put on apixaban. I commented to him that Apixaban will sort out the clot in his femoral vein .The AC nurse stopped me and said,no, Apixaban does not work on actual clots it prevents further ones

Total knee replacement - 6 weeks on
Hi Today is my 6 week anniversary of having my TKR on my right knee. I'm keen to start driving again and wondered if I need to get the go ahead from the physio first or what is the protocol? My understanding was that if you can do an emergency stop you can drive. I have an automatic car so I'll be

potential endo, no confirmed diagnosis.

Joint pain management or medication
Recently I have been having problems with pain in my wrists every time I wake up in the morning. At first, I didn't mind it at all but it happens several times a week. I got into researching joint pain medication and it brought me here https://www.hondrexilchile.cl/ and read about Hondrexil capsules.

Adenomyosis, should I have hysterectomy?
The short version is that I have adenomyosis. I've always had heavy periods with period pains that make my thighs numb and require prescription painkillers. At the age of 44 I had some symptoms of perimenopause and tried HRT. After two years I came off and that seems to have triggered a strong reaction
