Torturous world of RLS
My history started in 2019 with my first
spinal
fusion
, my life just went downhill from there. The restless legs and nerve damage happened in 2022, I have been living with nightmare since then, only got given temgesic in March 2023 and that was for post op pain not restless legs or nerve pain.

Lori, NURSE
I've had Cervical
spinal
fusion
and discectomy, bad COVID, pneumonia, chronic pain and cough, since my diaphragm is numb and I can't breath deeply, I'm now incontinent, because I cannot FEEL my urges till it's too late. I can WALK, I've followed all instructions.

bilateral ovary date January
decapeptyl injection to confirm it’s ovary and endo because I have a large scar across stomach from
spinal
fusion
so could also be scar tissue. Injection brutal side effects so think going ahead with ovaries and tubes out and she said she can remove superficial endo but not if more severe.

frustrated with restriction of naproxen
After an unsuccessful
spinal
fusion
surgery in 2001(and 2 more since) I’ve been taking naproxen for about 15 years and get that together with a long list of other pain meds every 3 months,I’ve now been told I can only have 2 month supply of naproxen at a time which is messing up my repeat meds routine

1. I attended my 1st PC in 2012 (Cambridge) following spinal decompression which was successful but I also had fibromyalgia. 2. Transferred to 2nd Peterborough PC due to travel problems. Sat through excruciatingly painful group sessions relating to the Biopsychosocial Model and Mindfulness. Course

Surgery Today!
I’m having spinal surgery today in my neck. So glad it’s finally happening but rather nervous too. I have cervical stenosis and myelopathy so I’m hoping this operation will stop the progression of spinal cord damage 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻. Has anyone else had this happen. Not sure if it’s RA related or not.

Sacroiliac joint fusion
After many painful years I'm on the NHS list for sacroiliac joint fusion. Of course there is a 12 month waiting list. Has any one had this operation done privately? Struggling to find a private consultant in Yorkshire.

Double vision
Hi there. Can anyone tell me if they have experienced double vision with PA? I have Vertigo and also double vision in one eye. I know PA can cause vertigo but I’ve never heard of it affecting your eyes. It’s worrying me that it may be something else so I’ve been to an eye clinic. They say the muscles

Double vision and PMR?
I have in recent years become more and more bothered by double vision when I am tired/fatiged. Of course, it is worse during flare-up periods. Now it can be seen in photos of me, and my family has commented that I am becoming cross-eyed in the evening. I mentioned it to the ophthalmologist at my last

Goitre and Spinal Surgery
Hi. I am awaiting Cervical Spinal Surgery but also have a multinodular enlarged goitre. The spinals team says the goitre needs to come out first before they can get to the discs in my neck. It’s all a waiting game at the minute. I have a very high anaesthesia risk too. Intubation is difficult for

Gingko Biloba - Supplement Advice
Hello everyone, I'm reaching out for advice on using Ginkgo Biloba to combat brain fog. My previous experience with the Amitamin Ginkgo complex yielded promising results in boosting mental clarity. However, I've noticed it contains iodine (150ug), which I'd rather steer clear of. With that in mind
