Is this normal?
Hi all, So I posted a while back after I got diagnosed with osteoporosis and had a vertebral fracture. Turns out I actually had 4 vertebral fractures, not 1 like they initially thought! I’m about 8 weeks out from the fractures (and so 8 weeks in to taking alendronic acid) so they should be just about

A thought on calf pain
I wanted to tentatively put forward an idea, and I would be grateful if anyone in sports science or
physiotherapy
on this website would weigh in. Is it possible that for people whose biggest problem is calf pain, the advice to keep slowing down is actually making the calf pain a bit worse?

SinceI was diagnosed with ovarian cancer at the age of 73 , I consider myself extremely lucky . I was in good physical shape at the time and although I was nervous about the chemotherapy, I managed it well . Early on I decided to only share my diagnosis with family members and really close friends .

NICE Guidance on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome delayed
Most of us here will know the life-draining fatigue that often accompanies systemic autoimmune conditions. Many will have co-diagnoses of CFS or ME. For a long time, people with ME/CFS have argued that these are "real", medical conditions, rather than the effects of psychological dysfunction or deconditioning

Beconase , changing tinnitus
I have a dental splint,
physiotherapy
, chiropractor, acupuncture. I recently noticed I was getting hay fever , itchy eyes and nose. I started using a nasal spray called beconase, it helps the hayfever but its doing weird things to my tinnitus. It's really quiet then loud and changing pitch.

new NICE guidelines for CFS /ME shelved.. handbags at dawn , and resignations. Seems they really don't want to let G.E.T go.
article is somewhere in todays Guardian i think . ( edit yesterdays guardian) The new guidelines were going to say "get rid of Graded Exercise Therapy , and CBT can be used to help , but is not a 'treatment' But.... a not so 'nice' man on radio 4 this a.m . says they really don't want to loose C.B.T

Update on my leg/hip pain & walking difficulties
Thanks to everyone who responded to my post last week. Just to let you know that I went to my lovely Physiotherapist yesterday and she says it is nerve pain from the Piriformis muscle. PMRPro was right as always. Im still having difficulty walking but have exercises to do and after speaking to Rheumatologist

What I have learned from 1 year with Early Onset PD - "Glass Half Full"
I decided to keep a journal of my journey - it has been quite a year but I have learned a lot. some of which maybe relevant for new and older PD people. I am not a doctor and this is not a medical opinion but there is lots available to make a stand against PD https://fightparkinsonsdisease.files.wordpress.com

Moved house, new shoes, this heat is killing me & I'm scared to join parkrun :0
Okay yes its looong So it has been a busy, busy couple of weeks for me both personally and running wise. First of I moved house - same city, but different neighbourhood. Luckily this is just by my favourite running spot in a big park / forest! Running wise - injury wise, my physio told me I needed

What would you do?
About 2 years ago I was referred to a respiratory consultant whom it was thought had more experience than the specialist I was seeing at that time. All started off well as I was sent for blood tests, MRI scan, sputum samples, lung function test and an appointment was made for me to see a respiratory

Piriformis 😩
I've avoided writing this post for a few weeks because I just want to get better and get out there, but I'm starting to lose any sense perspective. I came home from a week away keen to start training for the Bristol half marathon. In an effort to improve my time, I started a Garmin strength programme

Returning after injury- advice please
I completed couch to 5k in January and continued to run regularly. By June I was doing jujus magic plan and reached 7k. However I overstretched a hip muscle( flexor I think) and had to see a physio for treatment. She advised me to stop running in the meantime. Been given all clear to return but don’

Recurring headaches
Hi, I have been suffering with headaches for about 6 months now. I managed to get rid of them about 1 month ago but they came back again shortly after. I am seeing a physio, get a deep tissue massage and have seen an osteopath but they are still present. I’m at my wits end as they won’t seem to go away

Have you ever tried a Bioness type device?
Hi, my new Physical therapist asked me if i wanted to try the bioness to get rid of the walker. win/win, right? so i tried it today but it was painful and made my ankle go out instead of up. so i guess it's not for me. Or maybe I'll try again after it gets upgraded. For those people unfamiliar it is

Air Physio.
I was diagnosed with IPF in April 2018. Although I have learned to live with it with ambulatory oxygen, I recently contracted Covid and again, although recovering slowly, my oxygen needs have increased. Someone recommended and bought me an AirPhysio, but I'm wondering if it will it do my condition any

Not a fail, but not a success either!
Hi everyone, hope you’re all doing OK. I haven’t posted on here for a while but I’ve been recovering from injury. Happily I’m on the mend now thanks to an excellent physio I found courtesy of a couple of lovely running friends on Strava.😊 Anyway, today I set out to run 16 km in preparation for the Vitality

How to get a referral?
Hi there 2 years ago I was referred to a rheumatologist for ongoing pain and stiffness. They couldn't find anything particularly wrong and the issues subsided so they discharged me back to physio and my GP. Obviously then we had Covid, and tbh I wasn't too bad, but this year the symptoms have come back

There is hope a view from seven months down the line
I thought it might be encouraging for some at the beginning of their journey to read a relative success story from 7 months down the line. I am 67 hand an elective operation for an aneurysm and aortic valve replacement. Cardiac arrest during op and blood clot in lungs in following day resulting in having
