Lower Back Pain
Hello, I have suffered from lower back pain for years on and off, having MRI Scans, physio sessions, taking pain killers. This year the pain never goes away. The MRI Scan shows dehydrated bulging discs at L4 & L5. I exercise and walk. I really struggle to bend down and sit for over 10 minutes.

PMR or Arthritis?
I have been reading your forum since I was diagnosed with PMR just over 2 years ago. I have found it incredibly informative, helpful and comforting, but this is my 1st post. I was diagnosed with PMR after a couple of months of extreme pain and stiffness in the neck, shoulders hips and knee, to the extent

Neurological pain - carpal tunnel syndrome.
Hi all, I wanted to ask if there is any hypo/Hashi’s folk on this forum who has the same or similar presentation to me. About 12 years ago, after being diagnosed with celiac disease the GP ran some blood tests for my thyroid. The TSH level came back very high and out of range. The GP asked me if I felt

Post concussion issues
Hi all, I've mentioned before that I was diagnosed after my concussion as having oculomotor and vestibular problems - and was given repetitive physio exercises to do for rehab - which did help enormously with coping in supermarkets and similar environments, but I've never seen much on here about other

Mini maze update.
Apologies I know I promised to post updates and haven't. I had my mini maze surgery back in September with the wonderful Mr Hunter on the NHS. I've been in NSR ever since which is amazing as I had moved to persistant Afib and I felt pretty awful all the time before surgery. I am soooo grateful to Mr

Follow up to my last post about nausea & unable to eat.
Hi again folks. I posted 16 days ago about feeling weak, nauseous & being unable to eat plus my reluctance to go to A & E as I'd been with similar symptoms just a couple of weeks before. However, I did go to A & E where I was admitted after a blood test confirming low sodium levels (again) and a really

Edit: Added the elevation profile from said marathon. Its making my knee twinge just looking at it.
Back in the olden days (2022), I ran the [i]Giant's Head Marathon[/i], and my knee hasn't spoken to me since. It was a brutal course with around 1000m elevation gain that took you across an array

Lower back Pain Conflicting Options Physio/Osteopath
I have had really lower back pain for best part of 6 months. Physio tells me I have degenerative disc disease L5 and my osteopath says no, your pelvis is slightly misaligned and the pain is coming from your sacroiliac joint. I saw another osteopath who claimed it was all muscular tightness. Whilst

Hello hello... and a query
I don't check in here often enough. MrGM was plagued with severe back pain almost all of last year - one early episode that took the usual month to get over, an all too brief period without and then a very long episode well over 6 months... and some possibility that a rather different pain they've been

19 days post op - been very tough especially when COVID thrown into the mix! My muscle tone wasn’t great pre-op but is now nonexistent. Is it possible to build muscle tone with PMR? Without PMR it’s possible to build good muscle tone with regular exercises but no matter how frequently I do my post op
