Going into Hospital Sunday😢
OK, so they are experimenting on me by changing from Dia-Morphine which I've had in my Medtronic Pump for the last 15 years which the body has become immune too! They are going to drain out the dia-morphine over a period of 2/3 days (that's going to be fun, not) and then once empty fill up with 50% Hydromorphone

A Win with the Endo! Also any Experience with ERFA here?
The last time I saw my Endo six months ago he told me that if my symptoms and labs didn’t improve he would let me try NDT. Since then I have felt worse, weight gain, hair loss, constantly cold, developed eczema for the first time in my life, muscle aches, etc. My most recent results from September

Jack Frost.
I remember years ago When Jack Frost was my friend Thinking back to days gone by Why did that friendship end? He always made me catch my breath When he suddenly appeared But soon I would be making steam With nothing to be feared Cosy nights by the fireside With a cup of tea Whilst Jack played around

What supplements do folk use for PMR ?
I was wondering what supplements people use with PMR to help both the condition and to counteract the pred side effects? I’m coming up to the first anniversary of diagnosis and have tapered to about 6mg which I can’t get below at the moment. I supplement with Fultium D3 daily and a cod liver oil capsule
