Is this a flare?
Good morning, I’m 68 and diagnosed with PMR last October, 2023. I started at 20mg. No problem with tapering until February 29, 2 weeks after I started 7.5 mg. My neck (turning both ways and especially looking down) started getting sore and stiff on both sides. Tried acetaminophen and physical therapy

Newbie looking for advice, laparoscopy booked but I’m confused!
On another note I take 60mg codeine, 400mg ibuprofen, 500mg naproxen and 1g
paracetamol
at my worst (ovulating or bleeding) and the pain still keeps me up at night and brings me to tears but he also said there’s nothing more they can do for pain relief.

Painkiller for after Dental Procedure
So next week I’m going to my dental surgery to get three tooth implants. The first session is when they drill metal rods into the bone. Once the local anaesthetic wears off it’s very painful. I’ve had one done before now this time three at once!! Last time I didn’t know about my CKD so as I can’t take

Update on safe pain relief
Received phone call from Liver Doctor yesterday tea time. I was told that it was safe for me to take up to 3g Paracetemol daily which is up to 6 x 500mg tablets daily. 8mg of Codeine daily can be taken if necessary along with a laxative as it can cause constipation. Tramadol and other Opiates should

Advice on safe pain relief
I was listed for transplant in November 2023. Last week I had a terrible fall. I have one fracture and very painful soft tissue injuries. I was only given some IV paracetemol. I have spoken to my transplant team who are now working out what I can have as they said that there will be something. I have

Self inflicted back pain. Nurofen or not?
Paracetamol
helping a bit but think I read on here that a blast with nurofen once or twice would be ok? Any thoughts please.

Turmeric
I don't take ibuprofen and haven't for years and seldom acetaminophen. I have read that turmeric is an anti-inflammatory. Is it hard on the kidneys?

Muscle Relaxers?
So I think we established that NSAIDs we’re no-gos, with Naproxen the least objectionable and codeine as a possibility for strong pain relief, and
paracetamol
/acetaminophen for regular pain relief. How about muscle relaxants? Are there any that are safe with Afib? Thanks so much!
