Confused & in of your help
Hi, I haven't posted for awhile but read others daily. I've been seeing the same consultant for 3yrs now,he's a strange but nice man who doesn't say a lot & quite often contradicts himself. My bloods are borderline (whatever that means) so he treats the symptoms not the results, although the scans of

My First Consultation
It went ok just confirmed that I have RA . Of course I was hoping she was going to say it was something else but alas. Had a steroid injection and put on Methotrexate and Hydroxychloroquine. I went back the next day and after 2 painful attempts managed to get some fluid drained off my knee and a steroid

Rotator cuff problem - anyone here left undiagnosed for a long time?
Hi everyone - I wonder if there's anyone else here with a rotator cuff problem, and specifically if you've had problems getting it diagnosed and treated quickly enough? I won't bore you with the details but basically I've had a catalogue of misdiagnoses since I first got shoulder pain several years ago

Trigger finger and more
Hi everyone, I posted just over a week ago about problems with trigger finger. If you remember I had a steroid injection into the base of my finger. Well it has made no difference and yesterday I saw my GP again as I was in so much pain and three fingers were now locking. He said he wouldn't repeat

Iliopsoas Bursitis?
I had a steroid injection from the Rheumy in December fro Trochanteric bursitis and, eventually, I am now able to sleep on that side without strong painkillers. The problem is that I am still having a lot of groin pain on the same side and wondering if I have other bursitis in the hip area? If so how

Starting T3
HI Guys This is my first post so you might need to bear with me. I've a feeling it could turn in to an essay! I've been diagnosed Hashis since May 2013 and have a generally good quality of life on 100mcg Levothyroxine, all things considered. I'm 23 and have suffered with poor immunity for as long
