I have recently been diagnosed with PMR. However several friends & family members queried the diagnosis and asked if I was certain I did no
have lyme disease. I'm from Canada and there has been a lot of publicity around this tragically under diagnosed disease. The symptoms are very similar to PMR but the treatment is different...antibiotics mainly. They say going on prednisone masks the real culprit.

No relief whatsoever from my symptoms - feeling I have "hit a dead end". What on earth can I do now?
Feeling pretty unhappy at present. As some of you may know, I have Endo, and I've had 4 lap surgeries so far to try and deal with it. My most recent surgery was March this year. I really don't feel I've ever been given much information (or the truth) about my Edno. All I can tell you is it took from

FFS! Erythema ab igne (hot water bottle 'syndrome')
So, for the past 18months or so I've been noticing a red/brown, spidery / blotchy rash on my inner thighs which has been getting worse. It's also on my lower back - though not as bad. Having now surfed the internet, it turns out that this is an actual medical condition caused by use of hot water bottles

Are there stronger NSAIDs than Diclofenac? Does anyone give me good pain relief advice, please?
Hi I am getting pain which can't get rid of Diclofenac. I have been taking Naproxen regularly and still getting pain so I level up to Diclofenac but still getting severe pain. Diclofenac is the strongest NSADs I got from GP. I have codiene based tablet, co-codamol, solpadol and Tramadol. But co-codamol

Does the after effects get reduced with time or it goes on deteriorating worrying about it ?
I am also very glad that i found this website. I have been reading your stories from past few hours. All of us are going through a very hard time. I think i was also contracted with some meningitis at the age of 4 when i had a serious headache. Docs said to my parents that they may have seen symptoms

Some weeks ago I posted how scared I was about having a bone marrow biopsy and asked for support - you came in your tens to encourage me. This is to say thank you for your uplifting comments as my biopsy was done yesterday and I believe every one of your heartfelt words made a difference. How true

What can putting a TENS machine on your carotid artery do?
I was in to see my chiro and two techs took me to the TENS machine. I showed the tech where it hurt and.she said she couldnt put the electrode there but the other tech said she could so she did. I started to feel weird and looked it up and every site says NOT to put it on carotid but doesnt say what
