I initially had pain on right side and down to the knee now extending to foot. Pain started in left hip although not as bad but again, pain

I have been told that I need a shoulder replacement, any words of wisdom will be gratefully received.
Trying to cut a long story short 2013 - sudden onset of ITP. 80 mg prednisolone initially whilst in hospital. Reducing well when January 2014 saw the onset of shoulder pain, followed shortly afterwards by GCA. After confirmation by Rheumy in March, Preds increased back up to 40. Started slow reduction

R A and steroid injections into joints?
Hello all Would those of us with RA recommend steroid injections into joints? What is the proceedure like? How long does the effect last? Would you swear by them or off them? I know, horses for courses, but your opinions and experiences would help enormously.ππππππ Also, with the anti inflammatory

Failed synacthen test
Hello everyone, I have been on various doses of prednisolone since diagnosis 20 years ago. Even though I'm on cellcept and plaquenil I have never managed to get completely off the steroids, just recently I got down to 3mg daily but bloods started going a bit haywire. My rheumy then did a synacthen

Holiday?
Hi all, I was diagnosed with RA in late April this year and I'm now on Methotrexate, Hydroxychloroquine, Sulfasalazine, and Naproxen with Tramadol/Co-codamol for pain relief. I had a steroid injection (in my backside) in April which is now wearing off and the flare is coming back. My RA is in both hands

Struggling with it all
Hi, I'm really struggling with lots of aspects of my RA, I have been really lucky with a relatively quick diagnosis because it was so bad at Christmas! I was in agony by the time I saw the consultant I was really bad and they gave me a steroid injection which was great and then another! I was off work

Just got to keep going.....
I've not been on here for a while as I've been so ill with pain and disability. Abatacept plus MTX was working great for me earlier on in the year. I had a throat infection for a short while, stopped meds for a couple of weeks. But in that time the RD just went mental and refused to be kicked back down

drug mix danger
Been on Indometacin, salphaselazin and omneprazole ( excuse spelling) for a 18 months now and consultant has just put me on methotrexate as no real pain relief with current mix. Confused over whether I should continue with just Metho and ditch the rest or what? Got cough cannot shift, had chest X-Ray

Sense of taste/smell?
