Deterioration during lockdown
Just a moan really. Took my lovely dog to the vet this morning which she really enjoyed. Surgery is so small that you cannot go in and have to wait outside. Walk from car very short but after standing outside for a few minutes talking to the vet, found myself rooted to the spot with stiff knees and hips

My Update on 2nd Covid Vaccine - the Oxford
As promised , here is my update on my second vaccine. I received my first on the 21st of January , with only a sore arm for about a week as a result. Fast forward 12 weeks, my rheumatologist reduced my hydroxy-chloro quinine down to one a day . Not sure if these are related but i went into a flare 3rd

Confused
Hi all, I need a bit of advice..... I’ve been having a lot of pain in my neck, shoulders and hands. This has been going on for about 6wks. I’ve been backwards and forwards to the GP, phone calls only, and I still feel it’s unresolved. I’ve had a steroid injection which hasn’t made a huge difference,

Next one please
Hi all, I have been on Adalimumab since December 20 and it is unfortunately no longer working. It seemed to be until I had the first dose of vaccine (possibly a coincidence). I have a face 2 face with the hospital tomorrow to change my meds. I know it depends on several things but has this bio failed

Journey to diagnosis
Hi everyone, hope you’re ok. I’m new here and have been under rheumatology for a year now. I’ve got multiple health conditions and understand that it takes a while to get diagnosed due to the crossover in symptoms. My ANA keeps switching between positive and negative, but the nurse said that happens

Waters breaking at 30 weeks (PPROM) - twins
Never out of the woods with this "journey"! Ugh, can't sit back and relax for one moment and think it's all safe. On Wednesday my waters broke. Quite a bit earlier than expected! Called the maternity assessment centre who checked me over and confirmed my waters had broke and my cervix was open 1cm, and
