Hi, I am a 37 year old and was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis at 32. Since then I have been told I have Osteoarthritis in both hips, both knees, both wrists, both shoulders and in my elbow to the extent that I have no cartilage left in my right elbow. I have been through all the meds and I’m currently

Any advice please?
Diagnosed PMR August 2015 and started on 15 mg Pred. After approx 8/9 months developed pain in right buttock. Have always been told this is not due to the PMR and encouraged to reduce steroids. Physiotherapy has not helped but physio did help with some muscle weakness I had at that time and that

CBD OIL ! Hi anyone know anything about the oil ? Selling in Holland & Barrett at a legalised low dose in UK now! Advise please in pain 🌸
I’m interested in any information from anyone who has tried it or thinking of trying it. As I am, if I get ok from my Dr with interactions with my drugs I’m thinking of it as I can’t take anti inflammatorys due to only having one damaged kidney and hate taking all the opioids for joint pain as they make

Sorry but do painkillers help?
Hi everyone I think I have successfully reduced to 2.5 mgs of pred. It’s taken me this long to recognise that every time I get to the next reduction level I have 7 to 10 days of worsening symptoms until I even out. I now know this is the withdrawal. This time I started taking co codamol only 2 at night

Bovine Thyroid Health by Nutri-Meds
Does anyone take these? I have just starting taking the 130mg capsules, having been on levothyroxine for 18 years and never feeling great. My last dose was 100mcg which had more recently been reduced from a long term dose of 125mcg. I'm wondering how much of the Bovine Thryoid Health I should be taking

Laparoscopy Tips
Hi all, I hope everyone is as well as can be. After what feels like an eternity of pain, I finally have a date for my diagnostic laparoscopy, next Tuesday 14th. Which I’m strangely excited about. Will be so great to finally have some answers and hopefully some “pain” chopped out of me. I’m also prepared

Time to leave between Iron and Levo
Hi Can anybody tell me how many hours to leave between taking my Levo to taking iron supplements? The doctor has put me on 3 iron tablets a day now and I currently take my T4 in the morning at 630 am. I also take T3 around 330pm so struggling to squeeze 3 iron tablets in unless I can take two tablets

Blood test results show high ferritin
Blood test results show high ferritin but low Hg. 57 year peri menapausal, cough for 20 weeks being treated for asthma. Sometimes so bad I gag and vomit. Took a 17 day course of Prednisone which cleared the cough completely then it’s back - could this be connected to blood results. Feel a little nausea

Latest results !?!?
I have had a couple of Blue Horizon tests. Thought I’d try a medi checks test and pay for RT3. Interesting. Although for some reason they don’t think I have Hashimoto’s which makes me doubt ALL of their results because every other test says I have ! I would be grateful for comments. I am having another

The Good and Bad
Bit of a long post... My dad has had Parkinsons for several years now, started with a left hand tremor which has progressed to slow movement, some shuffling (though not as bad as some), and stiffness. The neurologist has had him on Pramipexole, Rasagaline, and Kemadrin for the last few years. Unfortunately

Constant pain
These pains are getting worse by the minute. I’ve tried tramadol and co-codamol but it doesn’t work at all just knocks me out for a few hours. Tried having a hot bubble bath and hot water bottle but not able to eat or sleep & I’m tempted to go hospital to get morphine. Anything I could try?? Need help
