Adalimumab (Idacio)
I’ve been injecting this since last November. I noticed most people are using this alongside another medication. I’m not and I really don’t think it’s working well. I have had to give up on Sulfasalazine and Methotrexate so wondering what else could be offered. I have high blood pressure so not sure

Adalimumab
Hi, I've had psoriatic arthritis for years , Leflunomide is no longer working for me so I have been put on Adalimumab - did my first injection one week ago and have started feeling quite dizzy and nauseous, Just wondered if any one else has experienced this early on with this drug ? Thanks

Tips on testing
Hi, I have a GP appointment next Monday to request that I be tested for arthritis. Can I please get an outline of the most comprehensive tests that I can hope to get from the GP? Also, thinking ahead to the blood draw, is there a particular protocol that I should follow? Many thanks 🙏

Prednisolone and osteoarthritis
As I posted recently, after more than a year of taking 2.5 mg of pred daily, at long last I had an appointment with a rheumatologist who advised me to reduce to 2 mg and then by 0.5 mg reductions at intervals to get down to zero pretty quickly. I'd experienced before that when I reduced my pred dose

What helps you?
Hi, I have painful arthritis in my fingers, I'm still working and typing every day which doesn't help.I currently just use ibuprofen gel 10 percent and not much else, apart from hot/cold packs which only have a temporary effect. I'm looking for additional help with pain and swelling so wondered if any

Supplements for arthritis and rivaoxaban
Hi all My husband has paroxysmal AF and a pacemaker takes digoxin and Rivaoxaban. He has slight arthritis in both knees(too much playing hockey in his younger days!) and not bad enough to take painkillers all the time. Bothers him the most after sitting for a while and then moving again. Before his

psoriasis: how did it start?
I have psoriatic arthritis and have suddenly, in one night, acquired a red rash on both ankles. My rash is bright red blotches. Does this sound like psoriasis?

PIP review
Sent back my pip review form Tuesday. Since my initial claim I have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. Let’s hope it all goes well, it’s a stressful wait.
