worth contacting local hospital to find out if they have chronic pain service as they may offer acupuncture as treatment. That may reassure anyone re blood thinning medications. The other option is to Google BAWMA British Academy Western Medical Acupuncture and they can possibly tell you who is in your

Survivor 52 - my story
Whilst I have posted on others 'story' lines I realise that I've not said anything about my own in one place. So here goes ... In October of last year I had an angina attack, not sure what brought it on. Within a day or two I was in A&E with chest pains and unable to breathe. It passed and I was sent

Lung Function Test
In June I had my 4th lung function test since my IPF diagnosis back in 2020. My first test was 79% total lung capacity which made me a candidate for anti fibrosis treatment. Last year after a bad chest infection it reduce to 78%. After pulmonary rehab and face to face sessions with a breathing physio

Back Off Plan
Have been enjoying the NRC 10K plan but a couple of weeks ago the slight niggle in my knee progressed to my hip, despite reducing to 4 runs a week, so to be safe I saw a sports physio today. Diagnosed with ITB syndrome. Good news, it's fixable with a corse of treatment including knee strengthening

Bennett's fracture of the thumb and the rest. Don't cycle on Friday 13th January.
No such luck, though was asked if I'd like
physiotherapy
on my broken bones. I just can't believe the incompetence of the NHS in Wales. I'm still in pain every day from my skull fracture, my rib fractures , my grade 4/5 ruptured spleen, all of which are ignored.

Health update
Well, the BIG news is that I did NOT slip a disc. The doc said I severely strained the muscles from my knees all the way to my lower back. The pain is almost the same as a slipped disc, but the timescale dramatically different. She said it could take 4-6 weeks. And if I didn’t feel noticeably better

Fatigue - definition
Hi everyone, I have been thinking lately that when I am telling my Drs, physio etc that I have fatigue that they are interpreting this as “Sleepiness” and realising I maybe need a new word or phrase to properly convey what I mean. As the conversation then goes to my quality of sleep, which is 98% currently

Disabled rail card application
Hi there. Among other things I’ve had to accept that my driving days are now severely impacted by fibro etc and am looking at getting a disabled rail card. The website says I need to provide a PIP award letter dated the last 12 months. My original letter is over two years old. I’m in the process

becoming the undisputed queen of falls
It’s scary, but I’ve been falling lately. With most of the falls, them I understand, happened. But there were two of them lately that I have no idea what happened. I found myself dramatically crashing down before I even realized I was falling practically. I know I need to work more on balance with

Rheumatologist appt
Hi, just an update. Saw rheumatologist today, he doesnt think I have PMR (too young for that, in his opinion) and instead thinks "fibromyalgia" alongside with "mechanical issues" as ultrasound in May showed shoulder bursitis and tendiopathy, calcification plus trocherantic hip bursitis. Gave me 2 cortisone

Solifenacin
Hi everyone. Here again. After a few months of almost normal life it seems the Solifenacin has stopped working. I am only on 5mg but am reluctant to take the 10mg as the lower one causes constipation for which I have to have laxitives. On a high fibre diet but with plenty of fruit and veg. This

Dry-Needling and Low Level Laser Therapy By Physios: Does this really work and can it worsen tinnitus?
I triggered tinnitus and hyperacusis over 7 years ago now. Luckily it always went eventually but as of about 4 months ago it seems as if it is here to stay and a lot worse. An otologist told me that areas I said gave me pain could be consistent with TMJ issues and that he worked with a physio who could

Latest visit to my Physio, part 2.
One month on from my joint physio appointment, my usual Rheumatology Physiotherapist, and the Spinal Physiotherapist. My post a month ago, "Latest visit to my Physio", explained that it didn't go very well when the Spinal Physio asked what dose of Pred I was on. She wanted me to reduce 1mg per month

hanging on by a thread
so let me start off by saying I have severe to extreme ocd, depression, and anxiety. A few months ago I got peripheral neuropathy in my hands, feet and legs. It makes me have to walk with a cane and I’m prone to falling. I also had a lot of other medical things come up so I missed a lot of work. I knew

Update on breast pain with PMR
Thought I would let you know how I got on at the breast clinic, after having so many kind messages on my previous thread. It was a harrowing couple of hours at the hospital this morning, but the good news is that all is well. The mammogram that was done 2 weeks ago showed an area of concern, which
