Decisions
So shall I run tomorrow or not? On the plus side, I would really like to. On the minus side, I ran yesterday morning (nrc one hard, one easy which was great). I then set off in the campervan so I could go to the Southampton Boat Show today. Spent all day walking (nearly 15000 steps) or driving, about

My rheumatology upset me when he saw my DEXA scan told me to take FORTEO?He said I was going to break my hip or back.
I am 78 years old and I appreciate your replies. I am doing now nothing about my osteoporosis. I have decided to take my chances. In the past I did have two vertebral fractures. My DEXA scan is very poor because I stopped taking probably are due to the pandemic and other decisions not to take such a

Physio finally came after eleven months.
We were first referred for/to a physiotherapist eleven months ago for my chronic and severe back pain due to four compression fractures in my spine. For eleven months I have been prescribed morphine, paracetamol and ibuprofen. At last, a very helpful and skilled NHS physiotherapist came this morning

Review with Occupational Therapist conclusion.
apparently, I'm also entitled to free
physiotherapy
for walking, insoles for my trainers and are having grip handrails also fitted where needed, plus she is also allocating me a falls monitor because I am so vulnerable here on my own. so all in all I am pleased and hope the outcome brings all this into

A lumpectomy gone askew
I had IORT July 2018 for a 1.5 cm ductal carcinoma. My doc said "oops, I missed a little cancer you better have adjutant radiation as well." I complied. In June of 2020 my surgery site became infected and I developed and still have a seroma/hematoma. I received lymphatic physical therapy and now wound

Big10k and the Dodgy Achilles Revelation
I wasn't going to post as Katnap and Time_Lord were both going to but I had such a good experience at today's Stratford Big10k that I had to share what happened in the hope it helps others. As you may know, I've been struggling over the past few months with my Achilles. It's got worse and worse

Pain Clinic London
Has anyone paid to see Chris Jenner in London and was it worth it? I feel quite fortunate to have seen a rheumatologist and pain dr but never ever really get a definite diagnosis and flounder around discussing different meds and any physio just causes me far more pain than I started with.

Resources on WHY we are supposed to do certain exercises.
I'm wondering if anyone has seen the new publication from Harvard Medical School called "Exercises for Bone Strength" which I just got in the mail today. It seems good, but I was hoping it would give me information about which muscles I am strengthening with all the exercises they describe. Physical

Help with RA pain
I am in so much pain at the moment I am taking my predication and painkillers. I am using heat pads, stretching, massage gun, cbd oil and ibuprofen gel but nothing is touching it. I can’t get a physio appointment at the hospital or doctors and cannot afford a private physio. My RA team just dismiss me

Best medical appointment ever!
Went to the physio this morning. Usually any medical appointment involves being told to lose weight, take more exercise and eat less. Instead, I get told to buy new trainers every three months and start running. Woo hoo! Doesn't get much better than this (though I think if I hadn't told him that this

MRI Results
Just querying how long anybody who has had an MRI recently has had to wait for results. I had head and spine MRI five weeks ago and as consultant who originally requested it had given me next contact date by phone was late October I phoned his secretary two weeks ago to ask if I could have copy of report
