CBD cream for pain
I was recommended by my physical therapist to try CBD cream for the after surgery hip pain. Does anybody have an experience with using it? I have an incision from the knee to the middle of the butt, and the pain is unbearable at night. Over the counter topical creams don’t help.

How is it still an acceptable comment?
Hi there! Hope you’re all doing ok. I went to the doctors this week to discuss new pain medication - I’ve exhausted the options over the last 6 years but have now been told to stop everything and take one tramadol at night as well as paracetamol and ibuprofen. I explained that the paracetamol & ibuprofen

Negative ccp
I had a ccp blood test Thursday and had a phone call today with the dr to discuss my results. I am negative so no signs of ra. He did say I have some inflammation but we didn’t discuss it and now I’m mad at myself because I didn’t ask! He basically said as this is the same pain & symptoms & have been

GCA since October 2020 -from Virginia
New here! Naively, I thought if I did everything doctor advised, I would be “cured” by now. Now realize this seems to be an ongoing condition, with many setbacks. I have tapered to 8mg prednisone, 10mg methotrexate, and started monthly infusion of Actemra in February. Still have symptoms, particularly

Plantar Fasciitis
Any tips for getting rid of Plantar Fasciitis (a painful heel)? I have had it since September 21, probably caused by digging in inappropriate footwear, and although it's slowly getting better, it ain't gone yet. My previous bout 30 years ago took six months before I hardly noticed it. I have tried rest

Opinions please
Good morning. I haven’t posted for awhile so a little update. Just before Covid made its first appearance, I was feeling the best I’ve felt in along time. I was going to aqua 3 times a week as well as a fun dance class & also a lot of walking. I still had the occasional flare but on the whole I was fit

Prednisolone tapering
Hi Everyone I’m currently on 7mg of prednisolone, reducing 1mg per month, down from 60mg when diagnosed with GCA in April 2021. Through the past months I’ve suffered with extreme spaciness and balance issues but since seeing a private ENT specialist and having neuro physio and, of course, the reduction

Chest tightness after exercise
Background, i'm around 5 months into recovery from serious covid pneumonia (was hospitalised for a month, and only started exercising 3 months ago) I can walk for about 20-25 minutes 1 to 2 times a week, but I do feel very tired afterwards. I can manage very small amounts of jogging (3 minutes) and

Help and advice
I would like some advice please. Just over 6 weeks ago I fell down some steps and badly damaged both knees. No cuts but both my legs went under my backside and wrenched both knees. I've been going to the physio and I do the exercises prescribed by the physio everyday. I walk the dog everyday. However

Sorry but I have to rant…
This is a long post, so I apologise in advance. I’m absolutely at the end of my tether with the NHS - I’m exhausted and in pain all the time and I just expect some level of care from medical professionals in my local surgery and from NHS England, but instead they’re causing me so much stress and upset

Spinal stenosis in the neck and pain
Hi everyone. I have stenosis in the neck. I get sharp pains through the base of the neck with numbness, pins and needles and finger tip pain. I have restricted movement in my neck and cannot lie flat. I could not even be put in the head brace for my mri scan. I have been under an orthopedic consultant

Back pain at 35 weeks
Hi all, I'm almost 36 weeks pregnant and have been struggling with back pain in middle left area of my back. I have seen a physio and mentioned it as I also have pelvic girdle pain. I've been given some exercises (which I've been doing before anyway) but ultimately they said it'll just get worse up until

Return of GCA-like symptoms....from 2 months ago
Hello again. Not sure whether to do this as a part of the original post of start a new one. So I'm doing both. I have an update to the last extended and very helpful conversation of two months ago titled Return of GCA-like symptoms..... And a question for all you wonderfully knowledgeable people.

Chronic pain all over body - Help
Long story short, I was working out alot 3 years ago untill I injured my knees. That followed up by a bunch of more injuries due to overtraining and stupidity. It has been two years since my last injury and I still have constant pain in my shoulder, lower back and upper back. Hurt my shoulder while

Yet another side effect of Prednisone: tendonopathy
I was diagnosed in April 2019 with PMR, put on 20mg prednisone. I've done the usual up and down, now tapering to 7mg with the 'safety net' of Leflonamide. (My rheumatologist's phrase.) Amongst the usual side effects, I have steroid-induced Type 2 diabetes, osteopenia and weight gain. And now.....my
