Hubby is doing okay. Ventilator numbers still down, should be off it by about Wednesday. They have to lower it by 1 every day. He is breathing on his own now, only got it to kick in if he stops. Fingers crossed by next weekend he can get the tracheotomy out.Physio worked him hard today and she says

here we go again😬
after 8 long months I finally summoned up the courage to run again. Long story short I had an op beg of last August, not allowed to run for 3 months, enforced sitting around aggravated my GTS, and then after physio for that I developed a painful/ weak ankle on the other side so more physio. Finally

9 months away from running due to injury, but now able to start the programme again!

Me again
Hi, here again. He's doing really well. He's out in the chair each day, still hoisted but he was trying to stand and they had to tell him no you're not strong enough yet. Monday he was in the chair when I got there and they didn't put him back to bed until I left. He was getting tired towards the end

neuropathic pain from paralysed arm (trauma)
I was involved in a road traffic incident in 1996. The main injury I had was a trauma brachial plexus injury where my right arm was hyper extended and the ribs and shoulder support structure was fractured. The nerves for my arm, right upper chest and back were severely damaged/destroyed. The right arm

Oxygen levels
I have had COPD for around 15 years and it is getting steadily worse. I have the normal inhalers , have a air physio device, a nebuliser and recently have been accepted for oxygen therapy. On my last visit to hospital I was given the device that checks your oxygen levels. As I have only had this device

Second little run and all seems ok 🤞🤞🤞
Well after last week’s little run and the physio saying I could do another run walk I decided that as it wasn’t raining this morning was the one. I was quite e xcited by the thought of getting out there again even if it was only to do W2R3. Off I went and I felt good. My ankle complained a little bit

Joint pain
HiI have a history of back problems with a disc. But more recently joint problems. The physio thinks a lot is tied in to the perimenopause due to an increase in symptoms. The scan has showed an issue with a facet joint and degeneration. Can the menopause cause major issues with joints or inflame the

RED February Week 2
Well, it would be fair to say that RED February is not going as anticipated. Like last year, my plan had been to use it as an opportunity to increase back to 10k in readiness for Monsal Trail 10k in early April. Unfortunately I have been suffering with a niggly piriformis since training for GSR last

Nerve pain in left leg.
Went to my Dr to get help with severe pain in left leg. He thinks it is a trapped nerve in my back, and referred my to the physio. As there is a long wait for the physio he prescribed amytriptiline to be taken at night. I took 1 and after a while started to get palpitations.Saw a different Dr today and

Any ideas?
Hi fellow runners/joggers/jeffers, I’m after some advice. I graduated Ct5k on 7/5/23. Since then I’ve continued mostly every other day running. I’ve decided to do the NRC 10k I’m on week 4, I’m still doing alternate days so resting as usual. For the past maybe 2/3 weeks I’ve noticed my left hip won

Revisiting the Zoledronic acid pros & cons
Hi folks, I was offered zoledronic acid two years ago and was so freaked out by possible side effects that I declined. At the time I was at a much lower dose of Pred and naively thought I would be off it by now, that my calcium absorption would return to normal and I'd be able to rebuild my bones naturally

Slipped/herniated disc rehab
Hey all. My first post on this one. Had an MRI last august after months of severe lower back pain. Turns out I had a large disc bulge in the lumbar area quite a few mm in length. The symptoms have seemed to lessen a lot. I had physio therapy for about a year, from Jan last year to December. I’ve

Hip Pain
Hi, I am 21 years old and have been suffering with Endometriosis for 10 years now (although I was diagnosed in 2021). I have been on Prostap injections and Tibolone HRT since July 2021 as previous to this I was wheelchair bound on 3 occasions due to the severity of the pain and nothing else worked. Prostap

Rasagiline/Azilect?
Hi ! My hwp (77) diagnosed 2017. But of course with hindsight symptoms manifested earlier. Started C/L last year : 25/100 @ 3 times a day. Azilect 1 mg once a day . Walking became a really serious problem a month ago. Partly because of ongoing "sciatica" but also freezing a few times a day. Two weeks

Physio update
Saw physio yesterday afternoon. He’s pleased with my progress. Thinks the hip pain is from my back injury from years ago so did some massage of the spine again as it seems to be working. My heel pain is Achilles tendinitis/ tendinopathy. I think that’s what he said 🤣. So he gave me some treatment and
