I started with PMR seven months ago just before I was due to have a knee replacement. I was on 15mg pred and my consultant refused to operate due to an increased risk of infection until my pred intake was 5mg or less. I am now on 5mg and doing OK and I have arranged an appointment with the consultant

Recurring pericarditis
Iāve had recurring pericarditis for almost 7 years. Iām treated as having an autoimmune disease as if I have rheumatoid arthritis. I have āflare upsā almost every month, or 6 weeks at the longest. Every time I have a flare I use a medrol dose pack to get the pain back under control. Iāve tried prednisone

So anxious lately...
Hello again everyone- I have always dealt with anxiety but have found ways to deal with it and minimize it. I have Psoriatic Arthritis, Psoriatic Spondylitis, Fibromyalgia and chronic headaches/migraines. Due to a new insurance plan, I havenāt received my biologic in 12 weeks. It makes a HUGE difference

Possible Arthritis?
Hello, I'm Owl and I'm 22. I've been suffering with joint problems my whole life, I have memories of being very young with great pain. Finally after many years of saying I'm just 'fine', Doctors are truly believing me when I say that I'm in pain. It's not 'growing pain', it's not a 'phase'. But since
