Knees got the better of me for now
Oh dear, I was SO enjoying my first two weeks, getting a real high from it, but, alas, I have to give up for now because of slight knee strain. I was doing the warmup and warm downs religiously, being super-cautious due to age and lack of fitness, but then last Thursday I jumped out of the car and ran

Physiotherapy and A Fib
Has anyone experienced an A Fib episode some hours after an intense
physiotherapy
session? I have severe osteoarthritis in my neck. The physio is to give me more movement in my neck which is very limited currently. I had to push through resistance to turn my head left and right.

Meniscus strain
I have a meniscus strain but it it is taking long fo me to recover initial injury from week 3 in November. I have been to physio and received exercises to do at home. However, when I exercise the injury seems to be getting worse e.g. pain and stiffness. Has anyone had this issue? How did you recover

5 weeks off!
I completed C25K in November. I was still running a couple of times a week for 30 mins. My max distance was 4.25km ( I’m 57) I’m now good to go again following injury. My pelvis was out of alignment due to tight ITB/hamstring/adductors. All good now following Physio, swimming and Pilates. Even tried

IT band issues
Hi everyone. Looking for some help and advice here. Daughter has been training for a charity Half in May. She was running up to 14 miles but now can’t get past 2km because of IT band pain. She has seen a physio who recommended rest and strengthening exercises which she has been doing for a month now.

Chest cramps
Do any of you suffer from chest cramps? I have been suffering with them intermittently for about a year or so and it really stops me in my tracks. Usually happens when I twist to the right or reach up even to pull my seat belt down around me. I originally thought it was due to scar tissue from when I

running after hip replacement contd 3
I restarted running at week 4 in November 2022, 10 months after my hip replacement. I went slowly and it went well. I had two periods when I stopped because of getting a cold and one because of holiday. From even before my operation my thigh muscles on the bad leg had a tendency to spasm from time to

Back 70 Years
Yesterday I saw my consultant and NHS physio in Chest Clinic I last went to 70 years ago, for X-ray that showed my heart on wrong side. I well recall the lady doing X-ray, she was bewildered, asked if I had turned etc., did another X-ray. Now know that I was born with PCD, but was so rare wasnt diagnosed

What do you think?
Hi all, Firstly I would like to say that I haven't been diagnosed with RLS - however through my own investigations it has lead me to this website so I hope no one minds me asking a few questions as I'm starting to loose my mind. I have been to the gp with my symptoms who has told me he thinks I have

Is it posture? Cold? A flare? Or something else?
Hi lovely people 😊 I am sitting here feeling very weak and emotional, I think due to my recent and ongoing drop to 7.5mg. I’m in week 2 of a three week taper from 8mg to 7.5mg. But….as well as the deadly fatigue, I also have some pain issues. I’m trying to sort out whether they are PMR related, or

muscle recovery
Can anyone point me in the direction of any studies done on muscle recovery after PMR? I have been off pred now since October, but am suffering terribly with a rotator cuff problem which is making no attempt to recover.

Diagnosis of Sigmoid volvulus 3 weeks ago and an emergency operation via colon righted it temporarily.
I am recovering slowly from the shock of the above diagnosis. The surgeon said he will have to do a major abdominal operation (which he is reluctant to do whilst I am on Prednisolone, I was on 6 mg 3 weeks ago but now on 5mg) as healing and infection could be post operative problems. So I saw my Rheumatologist

does anyone have trouble being believed
in the area where i live no one seems to understand what psp is. my neurologist here had his supicious but could not diagnose for sure, so i had to go to specialist 300 miles away to get definitive diagnosis. i was referred to physical therapy where they had never heard of psp, but were great at finding

Last November 2022, after a referral from my GP, to the hospital Rheumatologist, I was given a working diagnosis of Polymyalgia. I had experienced shoulder problems since 2019, and been treated with steroid injections, intensive physio, and Prednisolone, but throughout 2022, things had got really severe

Could this be PMR?
My friend is visiting me and has just told me the following story. In November 2022 she started getting an aching pain in her right arm. After a few weeks she went to her family Dr who prescribed codeine he said the pain was caused by small muscles in the bottom right hand side of her neck, he said

I am on watch and wait with another mri in august. My main problem apart from getting my head around something that is never really going

Sciatica pain
I've had unbearable sciatica pain on top of my fibro, all down left leg, I'm using an elbow crutch to help me walk but also waiting to see specialist physio could take up to 10 weeks! I've been put on amiltryptiline 20mg per night as well as already being on pregablin 300mg x 2 daily and then cocodamol

I have asked for advice on this forum before but my bladder problems are causing distress. Because I cannot take Solifenacin though it worked well as far as the constant need to pee. It caused me terrible constipation which even with laxitives was difficult. Now my urethra is sore and some pain.
