Piriformis Syndrome
Hi everyone I was diagnosed with PMR in March 2020, started on 15 mg. Reduced by 1mg each month, had to return to 10 mg in January 2021. Decreasing slowly and now down to 8.5mg. Towards the end of January Piriformis pain came back, I’d experienced the same thing in October 2020. Have been doing

Baking Soda for Inflammation
Some time ago there was a post about a study which shows a small amount of baking soda (1/4 tsp) per day has been shown to work on the spleen and lower inflammation. I have tried this for four months and the result, for my version of PMR is absolute zilch. In fact my inflammation markers are as high

Diagnosis confirmed a year after onset of symptoms
Reading posts here it seems very common that a diagnosis is difficult or delayed. I’ve found it hard having symptoms and not knowing for sure what is going on. Over a year ago a blood test showed high for RF factor but because the ultrasound was clear I’ve been treated for fibromyalgia & possible inflammatory

Do I need to phone my consultant?
I was diagnosed with sero positive rheumatoid arthritis 3 years ago and since then have been on sulphalazine without any more problems. Recently however my ankles have become a bit stiff and my knees, as well so walking is becoming more difficult. They are not particularly painful. I think perhaps I

Arthritis drugs may reduce mortality and time in ICU for sickest COVID patients.
Treating critically ill COVID-19 patients with drugs typically used for arthritis may significantly improve survival, a landmark study has found. The findings, which have not yet been peer-reviewed, come from the REMAP-CAP trial, which evaluates the effect of treatments on a combination of survival

TREATMENT FOR PSEUDOMONAS.
Hi going on Meropenem again. This is the third time since September. I've had two X rays still showing a shadow on my left lung waiting for a Ct Scan. At the moment I feel like it's never ending. 😕😡 Holly

Tocilizumab extension
Hi I wrote a couple of weeks ago asking if anyone had been told that their tocilizumab was being extended. I’ve heard nothing from rheumatology or G.P but today I’ve had a txt from the company that deliver the injections to say they are delivering early March. Not sure if it’s the normal 8 weeks supply
