Sleep Problems - Not enough sleep
I've started to have problems sleeping. I usually wake up 1 or 2 times a night. However, over the past few weeks, I've been getting 1 to 3 hrs of sleep. I don't know what to do. I fall asleep ok. After sleeping for approx 1.5 hrs I wake up. I go to the bathroom then as I try to go back into bed and

Any tips pls ..? Dad's really tired of is cough - that's now a mix of dry (mainly) and some mucous
Hi, the mucous is not really coming out now. But the dry cough is new. The hospital checked for an infection (given the dry cough), but didn't spot anything which is a relief.
So, my question is really about how best to handle a cough that's dry , with just a little mucous ..?
He's using codeine

Exercising with active RA
Is this the sort of thing that

Rheumatologist appointment help
Good Morning. ( This is a long story so will try to make it as condensed as I can) 4 years ago I was diagnosed with PMR after painful joints, hands arms, shoulders and toes. I was put on a dose of 40mg of pred as they also thought I may have GCA. Although that turned out to be a dental issue. I was

too fast
so I completed my c25k back in December by hurting my knee on my last runš¤¦š»āāļø. Fast forward to now, knee is better, physio helped and I am back to running. So I run approximately 30 mins but the problem is my speed. When I start I feel really comfortable with my run more than at a slower pace but

Update with some pleasant news! I think? and a question
I went to my rheumy yesterday and was supposed to be at 5mg. I am just beginning the taper for 7.5mg. Needless to say she was not happy. She had to push the issue because; "my GP doesn't like it that I am still on the pred." I thought that was curious because the only reason he even got involved was

Possible bloated stomach and bronchiectasis
Hi everyone I'm 60 years old and have just been diagnosed with 'mild' bronchiectasis. I have been coughing for months and expectorating just a little greenish phelgm every day. The consultant is sending me to a chest physio as treatment in the first instance. Is this best course of action? He's not

Follow-up: ER Visit for Excruciating Back Spasms
On advice of my former Neurologist, I went into the ER on Wednesday past and sat for 4 hours. Could sit no longer due to the spasms from hip girdle to diaphragm and a little higher. Left the ER. Yesterday, I decided to go in the morning. Waited about 2 hrs. They gave me a shot of something which starts

Week seven done!
I'm back - after a LONG break. It was all going swimmingly till Feb 2019. I'd lost around 3 stone in weight, graduated Couch to 5K, doing parkruns, did Bridge to 10k, loving it all. Then Feb 2020 - during a 10K run, fell over going too fast downhill. Nasty fracture of two knuckles. Got operated on

Week 4 Deja Vu
Had to repeat a few runs as had a break but week 4 now in the bag. clip on slow running really useful and despite arthritis in knees can imagine getting to week 9 as a possibility. I did check with my physio and a personal trainer that this was ok first.

Further update on accident and pred
Whether it was the right dose or not the 15mg of pred was enough to sort out my low blood pressure problems enough. I'm down to 10 now with instructions to go down .5 mg a month from when I get home. I'll see how I go when I get home but if it works it won't take too long to get back down to 6 and then

Running and obesity - update- part one! šāāļø
In October 2022, I posted about how my obesity was holding me back from improving my running. I received many lovely helpful replies and I promised I would update. Well, its a tale of two halves. I've not run at all in 2023 due to an ongoing injury, BUT, I have got my BMI down from 35 to 29. I am

First run since my hand surgery and it was a hot one!
I had the dressings removed and stitches out, so now itās all about physio to get my hand functioning well again. Right, time to get out for a run, I thought. I didnāt manage a super early start but I was out by 7.30am and thatās early for me. The shade and breeze were lovely and that helped a

C.O.P.D.
This will amuse some of you. When I was working my boss put an advert out for a COPD specialist physio. The really "clever" people in the jobs department advertised this as a "specialist for Central Out Patients Department" as all the locals call it COPD! Needless to say it was withdrawn and redone correctly

Recent TSH reading came back at 0.02..is this as bad as the GP surgery pharmacist suggests??
Hope this makes sense. Around September last year amongst usual symptoms of Carpal tunnel, IBS, tiredness, aches, weight gain etc I developed a new issue. Initially I thought I'd damaged my left shoulder rotator cuff..I couldn't remember damaging it but I suddenly couldn't raise my left arm past shoulder

Being injured is Sooooo frustrating
Itās been a while since I last wrote that my running progress had been halted by a hamstring strain which feels some time ago. Thinking it wouldnāt take too long to repair itself was a thought I clung on to for quite some time. I tend not to think about the time frame more about when will I be ready

Hot Weather Coming
I have just been outside for a 15-minute run (well wheelchair max'ing). The sun is really hot and after 15 minutes I felt I had had enough sun! Anyway the weather forecast for the weekend is hot and sunny with temperatures reaching 30C in many areas. So all us hearties, and others, should avoid prolonged
