Leg Pain
Hi all. I have posted before, my right leg is causing terrible pain from my bottom down to my foot. I also have pins and needles when I stand or walk. As the pain goes down the side the doc said he doubts sciatica. At first the physio has said arthritis, as the exercises made the condition worse

Help needed -- direction of travel
I am an active 79 year old located down in the pointy end of Cornwall, UK. I have led a healthy life except for the onset of Atrial Fibrillation at 65 (2010) and at 71 (2015), the onset of osteoarthritis in right knee. This is now just beginning to affect left knee but is all manageable at this stage

Sacral Insufficiency Fractures
Hi, I've just joined this online community, which feels like a good start! I was diagnosed with sacral insufficiency fractures following a scan in February of this year. My symptoms - excruciating pain and limited mobility - started in September 2022 only 3 months after the finish of my pelvic radiotherapy

Follow up to my last post re SDR
It's now almost 4 weeks since Mark's knee replacement. He's doing well after a small setback at the weekend. He saw our Dr a week ago to ask if he could drive. Dr told him to ask the physio. She tested him on a step, checking the force he could use on his knee and gave permission for him to drive

I didn’t know if I’d be able to come back…..
Hello It’s been months since I posted to all the lovely supportive people here. I’m very sorry but I couldn’t face it as I had an injury, which a physio said meant that I might not be able to run again. I was devastated. But the amazing news is after nearly 4 months of not running I started very slowly

I have posted before regarding the fact that after a year on steroids and having many side effects I was told to reduce them by 1mg a month. My rheumatologist did not think I had PMR (diagnosed originally by GP). After 6 months of increasing pain and stiffness and down to 2mg I was able to have a

By how should I increase my prednisone?
Hi All,I have had PMR since 2011 when diagnosed. I had got down to 5mg of pred and was on this dosage for many years until I had a massive flare at the beginning of 2023 and I increased my dosage, then gradually came down to 8 and 3/4mg. I am a 72 year old fit male. I have been going to my physiotherapist

Having a seriously bad year
As per the title, I’m having one hell of a year.. Last year I had awful pains in my right leg (so bad I could barely walk), so my Gp sent me for an MRI on my back. The results came back and he said I had a bulging disc in my spine, I was referred for physio. February this year I got a phone call out

Problems with muscle weakness
I was diagnosed with Lupus in 2014 but have had it for much longer. Myalgia and Myositis have been long standing problems for me. It was Myalgia, muscle pain and inflammation that was more of an issue but over time Myositis has caught up and now in the lead. It's affecting my ability to swallow.I have

Chronic pain , degenerative spinal disease
I am at the end of my tether with chronic pain and more recently, peripheral neuropathy. Every 8 weeks I have a B12 injection for management of Pernicious Anaemia diagnosed in 1985. However, the pains shooting into my toes and burning sensation around week 6, drives me crazy. The GP is nice but does

Leg Pain
Hi all, not sure which group,to seek information from. I also belong to the arthritis group. Just to say the physio diagnosed arthritis nearly 6 weeks ago when things were not so bad. I have followed her exercises daily. All that’s happened is the pain is worse and the most awful pins and needles

Living with Disc Issues
Hi all. So i herniated my L4-L5 lumbar disc (and minor abnormalities from L2 to L4) from doing too much weight on an inclined leg press and bad form. I also somehow caused bulging discs in my neck (cervical vertebrae, can't remember which ones) from either years of scrunching my neck during workouts

Robert
Robert was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2018 PSP in 2021 progression was slow at first. Last year Robert was walking with a cane and dragging his feet. In September he began to fall daily sometimes more. He got weaker every day and finally allowed me to call a rescue. What followed was a whirlwind
