Hi I’ve posted on here a few times and had helpful answers so here goes again. I’ve got SCA 2 use a walker all the time outside and mostly indoors but try to use walls and furniture if possible so I don’t get dependent on my walker indoors. Has anyone had good results from a private physio? Have they

On slow drop but having back pain again. Pred withdrawal or DOMS.
Started on prednisolone in March 2019 and pmr was managed well, apart from needing to go up a little after vaccinations. The bi valent covid booster in Oct '22 when down to 6.5mg or so kicked my immune system it seems, so had to go back to starter dose of 15mg unfortunately. See previous posts.Using

Has anyone used infrared light for pain relief?
A friend has recommended an infrared lamp to ease neck pain. I have been given exercises by an NHS physio and the pain is improving but I want to speed up the process. I’m looking for a private physio but the one with the best recommendation seems to have no capacity for new patients. Is infrared light

Tendon issues
Does anyone know if tendon damage, likely to have been caused by pred, is reversed when stopping the drug? I had an issue with a twisted knee in May which appeared to have resolved with time, rest and physio exercises. I was signed off by the physio about 3 weeks ago and made my first attempt at Pickleball

I tired
physiotherapy
but frankly the doctors were pretty useless. Its gotten to the point where the amount of exercise I can perform is virtually zero. Being forced to stop doing everything I loved made me very depressed and I am so a comfort eater so Im sure you can see where this is going.

Day after regrets
I'm 1.5 yr into my RA journey. I went downhill very quickly and was pretty much bedbound in a month. I had to reduce work from full time to 2 days per week. Slowly I've been getting better with treatment but it really is a slow process. I'm on MTX and Sulphasalazine and on good days probably about 70%

knee replacement
Hi. I’ve had both knees replaced twice over the last 16 years. The key things I’ve found are 1) physio. If ur lucky to get on nhs great but def worth paying for if you can. I wasn’t walking straight after last op and was told I needed to strengthen side leg muscles. Just straight leg raises laying sideways

Tomorrow's Quiz Postponed
Sorry I will have to postpone the for a week. It's just been a manic week including four appointments (one a very tiring physio session). The antibiotics I am currently on are not helping making me more than a little tired! Sorry again! ☹️

Graduated! Yippee!
Having graduated in January I planned to run 5km. I carried on running 30 mins and managed 4.75km! Unfortunately I suffered a ITB/ Abductor injury. My Physio gave me exercises and said my Glutes weren’t working properly on the Left side! After 3 months off I graduated again on Thursday. 😀😀😀🏃♀️

OK! I'm starting to prednisone taper again...
Yesterday I saw my rheumatologist after 4 months. I'd been doing really well on my tapering every three weeks and was at 3mg when I had the shoulder replacement surgery in July. We scheduled my follow-up for September since I was doing so well at my last visit in early June. I remained at the three

Getting there!!!
I suppose being told you cant do something makes you want to do it even more. Everywhere I look there are people running but I have been told to hold off for a little longer. Hopefully in a couple of weeks I will be able to start up the C25K app again. I sprained my ankle a while back (apparently doing

Latest visit to my Physio, part 3.
Many thanks to all who replied to part 1and 2 of this saga. As hoped for, the experts came through with enough correct information, and advice for my current situation. I printed out plenty of information for the one physio to read, in the hope that she would not give wrong information to another Long

Atypical femoral fracture symptoms
I am on zoledronic acid infusions. I know these have a rate side effect of atypical femoral fractures. About a year ago I developed pain in my hip. OP nurse said to visit GP who got me to do a few leg raises then said that because the pain was not constant or only present if weight bearing it probably
