PsA Intramuscular steroid injections Part 2
So - two and a bit weeks on, and I'm boiling mad! I realised that the pain I was experiencing was different from PsA, and called the GP out. He diagnosed bursitis in my knee, which he said was more related to osteoarthritis than PsA, and which I suspect was triggered by my attempts at exercising, and

Running after Plantar Fasciitis
Hi everyone, About a year ago I was doing C25K and was running during week 5 when I felt a really bad pain in my left foot. I rested for a couple of days but it wasn't getting better and I went to my GP who diagnosed Plantar Fasciitis. I was given some foot exercises to do which didn't help, tried insoles

Help! Having steroid injection into my wrist - How painful is it?

Since having one in my trapize bone under guided X Ray three years, I've become needle phobic cos that was the most painful thing I've ever had done! Wrist is very very sore though - inflamed most of the time. Due to start

He then looked at my hair line and noticed little red marks at the hair roots. I have had these little marks since i was in my 20'

Thank you for all your replies
So many replies - thank you all for your information, suggestions and observations. To those who mentioned Thyroiditis, I have had auto-immune thyroiditis for 27 years now and have been taking thyroxine for it. I must admit, though, that my weight problem has always been down to overeating. Recently

Intramuscular Steroid injections
I suffer from Psoriatic Arthritis with flare ups normally occurring only once a year, although they now seem to be increasing in frequency. I am not currently on any regular meds for this because of the infrequency of flare ups, although I have in the past had intramuscular injections of kenalog. So
