What's the experience on here of enbrel injection site reaction? Got a small rash 5 days after second injection on both sites
The literature suggests that you should use steroid cream on it. Could this be connected to reduction of steroids? I'm down from 10 daily to 7. Advice would be welcome as I'm just beginning to detect benefits

After 3 years of taking it, no more Methotrexate for me !!!!!
Hi everyone, Well I'd like just a penny for all the times I said, "I don't feel happy taking Methotrexate". Now, I have been taken off it under the guidance of my GP, the Clinical Nurse at rheumatology and my Optician ! Apart from my Vitamin D being low recently (I have started on Adcal-D3 and I feel

Hello, new member diagnosed with Discoid lupus this year. Does anyone know where I can buy UV protective clothes which wont break the bank
I'm still coming to terms over this diagnoses, so hard when we are walking into summer :( . I have brought two wide brimmed hats, but it is very hard to find clothes in the normal stores which will protect me from the sun..... I wear factor 50+ sun cream, although I'm not that good at remembering to

Swimming with lupus
Hi. I am feeling a little bit adventurous and I will like to take up swimming. I did not learn to swim when I was young and I would like to start now. The thing is, I know most public pools are treated with chlorine. So, does chlorine have any effect on us? Furthermore, I learned that some pools uses

Anyone ever had external signs of liver/gallbladder problems plus high GGT?
Hi everyone. I've been a lurker for some time but decided it's time to post my experience and see if anybody has ever heard of what I am suffering from. I developed a lesion on my lower right abdomen about 18 months ago. It was painless and looked a bit like a bruise. Doc tried steroid cream, antibiotics

Vitamin D test results - feeling ropey, advice please?
Hi and apologies if this is quite long! I've been trying to get hold of my endo for weeks for a phone consultation but that's not getting anywhere so I was hoping someone could give me a bit of advice on what to do with my vitamin D. I was started on vitamin D3 50,000 IU for 6 days in early February

Can insect bites lead to long term skin conditions?
About six months ago I was exercising in the park and experienced lots of nat bites all over my calves. Six months have passed and the bites continue to itch. My skin has started to scar from th constant scratching. The doctors gave me a steroid cream which I applied and it helped bring down the bites

Is this thinned skin forever. Or will it ever recover. I feel so desperate.
It's been 2 years. The steroid cream i was told to use for 6 weeks on my penis for thrush has left me with thin tender skin. I still can't wear clothes or underwear which means I still can't leave my house, and as for inimacy with my partner it is impossible. My quality of life is really bad, what

I think I might have scleroderma. Would 2 major surgeries in less then a year bring it on? Had rash on hands and forearms now for 3 months.
Seeing rheumatologist May 7th. On oral prednisone along with steroid cream for rash. Dr. ordered some labs which didnt show anything. I have never had a rash like this in my life. Red,Itch,burn,feels hot,dry and rough no matter how much moisturizer I use and has turned my skin a darker color. Does this

Help? I can't use paper to clean myself and need advice to change a wet room.
Does anyone on here have the problem I have in that I cannot use toilet paper to clean? It is because I had a lot of steroid cream that has thinned the skin. They kept saying it was eczema when it was undigested milk fat that burnt my bottom. Point is I have a wet room and changing it. I can't have

Pulmonary Fibrosis....
I'm interested in speaking with anyone who has used the 35% hydrogen peroxide / distilled-water solution as a treatment; as well as the other treatments... protein-digesting enzymes, Serracor-NK, Vitamin D3, Serrapeptase, Zell Oxygen immunocomplex, etc. Thank you for your response and suggestions.

Has any one tried 'bio oil' on their spots. Mine have nearly all cleared up but have now left like a red flat mark/bruised looked?
I was using steroid cream which brought the inflammation of the spots right down but now left with these marks all over my arms which I'm concerned wont go. They're not sore or itchy!

Just come back from the doctor. I have come clean to her about me stopping my medication and whilst she was surprised that I stopped it she was also surprised that the TSH dropped by itself. She appreciates that I’ve found this tough and has persuaded me to start over. I also explained to her that the
