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

Legs
I have written before about my legs but I am still non the wiser. Diagnosed with pmr in 2014, diagnosed with seronegative RA, then Inflammatory arthritis in the months following. They seem to have dismissed the pmr at rheumatology and the last man I saw decided it is all OA. I know that is ridiculous

Still in pain
Hi everyone I am still in pain after being on my current medication for almost 12 months. Having another steroid injection on Thursday.
