Hi All, I really wish I had joined this Forum a lot sooner....I am certain that no one wants to suffer but it is reassuring to read that I am not alone! For the last 4/5 years I have been suffering bouts of discomfort that can vary from urgent visits to the loo, pain, headaches - all sorts. For some

Hi all, 50 something and have had psoriasis since my thirties. Had a particularly bad two months so in desperation went to the GP. Have been prescribed internal steroids, a stomach blocker to stop the steroids ripping my stomach apart and an anaerobic antibiotic for "the inflammation". Oh and Coal Tar

Peter
As you know, Pete has sarcoidosis and copd. He also has a back problem that we hoped could be corrected with a spinal cord stimulator. Sadly that does not appear to have worked and it's back to Southampton on Friday. Not sure what can be said or done but just have to wait and see. It is possible that

Zytiga and Xtandi .... what do you think about this?
Diagnosed in ‘2008 at the age of 50. Because it was in his lymph node, he went with Casodex (30 days), Lupron (2 years) and radiation (40 external beam). In ‘2012 he did Taxotere when his PSA had a one month doubling rate. Planned to do 6 months, but was stopped at four months with heavy side effects

Re: Itching and skin pain
Can you tell me whether itching and skin pain could be connected to lupus? I have had severe problems following spinal surgery and in the end they removed my metalwork thinking I was reacting to this. I also had huge amounts of pain in my back. I suffered terribly for two years where my skin was sore
