Pain relief without more opioids
Does anyone have any suggestions for pain relief without more opioids? I was thinking of getting a TENs machine. Can you use pads on abdomen and back?

House like a Pharmacy
After having another crappy night and day in pain I had a mild panic today when I thought I'd ran out of Rennie's, non left in the 'bedside pharmacy' so ran to the large shelf I now have in the kitchen. On opening the cupboard I was greeted with a large box of pain killers falling on my head, whilst

Hypothyroidism-Lyme disease connection?
Has anyone here with Hashimoto's/hypothyroidism discovered they also have Lyme disease? Or that they've had it for years? A couple of knowledgeable friends have insisted I get checked for it, but the last time I knowingly got a few ticks was back in 1995! And, yes, some of my problems might have started

Deeply grateful to all the replies about agonising shoulder pain
Many thanks to all of you Kind people for your advice regarding my agonising shoulder pain. I am currently trying my Tens machine which I had forgotten about and which someone had suggested. I found paracetamol was useless, as was Ibuprofen. I previously suffered from duodenitis when taking nsaids,

On going pain.
For over nine years now, I have suffered pain, which over the years has worsened each and every year. At the begining I felt very much that my GPs didn’t believe me at all, one even saying to me that it’s time I let go of this, as there’s nothing wrong with me. I have tried pain management, bought practically
