Avoid prescribing desiccated (natural) thyroid extract
The NHS England Specialist Pharmacy Service advice re desiccated thyroid has been updated. Doesn't make much difference! But in case you are interested or need to know, it is linked below. Note that it does NOT say desiccated thyroid
cannot
prescribed. It still contains this bizarre sentence

Got pred at last!
I posted here a month or two back about my failure to get a PMR diagnosis in the UK. Just in case anyone's interested, I'm in Cyprus for a month and have something of an update. I saw a private Rheumy (at a time and date of my choice; free parking right outside state of the art American Medical Center

If not Temporal Arteritis, what could it be?
For the past two days I have experienced flashes of pain in my left temple area and a tender scalp. It improves with paracetamol taken at regular intervals but at certain angles my head really hurts, albeit briefly. I’m pretty sure it’s not GCA because there are no vision or jaw involvement, but what

Struggling with outcome of Rheumy Consultation
Yesterday I had my long awaited Rheumy Consultation, anxious and excited at the same time, I'm finally going to get some relief from this nightmare I'm in. I don't react well to stetoids and due to my heart failure and reduced kidney function I'm also unable to take anti-inflammatories long term. Imagine

What's going on?
Hi, just a recap...was diagnosed with PMR early this year by GP, (am 48 yrs) started on 30 mg prednisone then tapered down, increased pain so back to 30 mg again. Also had numerous bloods, ultrasounds, x rays, ct scan which showed bursitis in both hips and shoulders. GP referred to rheumatologist. He

Elbow pain ongoing
Hi there everyone, update on my elbow(s), well the 8 month target came and went for my left elbow replacement. It was discovered the component could have become loose in the right operated elbow. Had a CT scan and there could possibly be an infection but no antibiotics and can't go back on RA meds either

Covid - Beware Getting Treatment
it’s currently 08.30 in the morning and I have probably had the worst ordeal ever. I tested positive yesterday morning. As is the protocol I rang my Consultants Secretary, she arranged for the paperwork to West Yorks Healthcare (we live in North Yorkshire) Trust. She added to let them know as it was

Alternatives to steroids for PMR
Hi, I am still awaiting diagnosis for what to me is almost certainly PMR. My GP seems happy to let me take a vast cocktail of other pills but won't prescribe steroids not least because amazingly my CRP and ESR tests came in normal. So I'm on Naproxen and paracetamol (two of each at a time), one amitriptyline

Couch to 5k injury
I have injured my Gastrocnemius muscle which runs down the inside just under the knee after attempting to do couch to 5k after just one week. I followed NHS website where you brisk walk for 5 mins then alternate between 60 secs running and 90 secs walk over 20 mins then finally walk for another 5mins

Painkiller advice for Anagrelide headaches.
Started Anagralide 7 days ago, & took horrendous headache today. Took Solpadeine Max, & this helped, but only to be used for 3 days, & are expensive. Can my GP give me strong painkillers, or should I jut stick with Solpadeine? Would Paracetamol maybe help? Again thank you for any response.

appointment update
Well left for my appointment with a HR of 111. ECG hospital HR 174, BP 167/132.- full blown AF. Deposited in chair and wheeled to the consultant. My husband offered to push as the poor nurse wasn’t strong enough ( I only weigh 67kg ). If the resource was available I would have been kept in hospital
