Canadian Practitioners?
Hi All, Nice to see so much info shared here. As I'm located in Western Canada, I'm wondering if any readers could suggest practitioners with interest in the areas of nerve compression and pelvic pain. My family Dr. is wonderful, but after MRI's of the Lumber spine, Lumbar Plexus and a diagnosis of nonsurgical

Shingles and Prednisolone
I have just come back from a tea party where the person I was sitting next to said that she had had shingles 'but was all right now'. It sounded as if it was very slight and hadn't lasted long, although she did say that she had had a rash, but no pustules. Should I really contact the doctor? I am inclined

Restless Legs
Most of us suffer from all sorts of problems, and electric legs or rather "restless legs" are a bain in most lives- you go to bed "thinking" of the leg problem and that induces the legs to start. So whats the answer??? Here's mine.. I Put radio on sleep mode for an hour or so, put a tens machine onto

What to try next
Anyone out there with suggestions of what I can bring up with my pain clinic doctor is much appreciated. I've had chronic pain from 2 lower back prolapsed discs for 14 years. I maintained quite well for several years with swimming and exercise up until a flare up just over 5 years ago that just won't

Hands!
Hi, i was wondering whether anyone else suffers with pain, pins and needles and numbness in hands. It's driving me crazy and is much worse at night and keeps me awake and wakes me up. I find it hard to do anything involving my hands, even lifting a cuppa is painful. If anyone suffers from this do you

Thanks for tip!
I can't remember who mentioned this on here but thanks for the tip about getting the large electrode pads for my tens unit. Makes a very great difference.

Shingles Vaccination
According to posters in my GPs' waiting room, I am now eligible for the shingles jab. However, I seem to remember advice on this forum saying that it's not advisable for patients receiving prednisolone. I have been looking at the Government's guidance for practitioners and unearthed the following: "

Newborn with aseptic meningitis
Hi. My newborn was diagnosed with meningitis on day 5. He was treated for 7 days and watched closely in the hospital. He had nothing abnormal in his blood or urine. His LP showed elevated levels of white blood in the 500's. Nothing ever grew from his cultures and they said he had aseptic meningitis.

Still UCTD
Hi all, I am still in limbo as the rheumatologist (the one I went to for a 2nd opinion) is saying that my diagnosis will likely stay at UCTD for the time being until they catch other things going on in bloods / tests. Firstly, they definitely want to do a lip biopsy (should have been ordered 6 months

Post encephalitis
feeling isolated after recovering from encephalitis & not having much support from local consultants at my hospital or doctors as no one seems to think that any of my problems are down to having had encephalitis & if I'm honest they don't seem to have a clue about ongoing & lasting effects this has changed
