Steroids- dosage
Hi all, I'm just prepping for my 8th transfer after lots of failures and losses. I have had an intralipid infusion today, transfer on Saturday. I have been prescribed steroids (prednisolone) but only 10mg and not for long. For those who were successful, what was your dosage and for how many weeks please

Over Exercise?!!!
Hi. I have always valued all the contributions on this site since I was diagnosed with PMR and GCA in October 2021; this is my first post. Last December I had a PET scan as my ESR and CRP had rocketed ( ESR 102 and ESR 72) and I was definitely in flare mode with increased stiffness and pain. I was put

PMR/ Hypothroidism
Hello! I had PMR and was totally let down by doctors at surgery, I managed to wean slowly off steroids myself, after 2 years and I’ve been medication free for 8 months!!! However, I wanted to have inflammatory markers checked, had discomfort in shoulder my markers were the best they’ve ever been! Happy

Advice for managing adenomyosis
Hello fellow IVF warriors 💗 I wondered if anyone can give me some advice on how to manage adenomyosis whilst going through IVF? A bit of background on me: I started the IVF process in May 2022 after a year and half of trying naturally for our second child, who would be a sibling to our baby

Drug combinations
Hi all, I wonder if anyone on the forum is taking both Thyroxine and Alendronic Acid (AA)? I am taking a cocktail of drugs, as so many of us are, but have put off taking AA since diagnosed with PMR in 2022 - cannot believe where those 2 years went... I've been on Thyroxine (150 mcg/daily) for nigh

Low carb diets
On top of everything else I'm now pre-diabetic. I wasn't prior to starting the steroids but as I'm now on 2 mg of Prednisolone a day and have been on 5 mg or less for over a year I suspect that Prednisolone is not the culprit. I've been looking at a diabetic website and it says that low carb is less

Tooth Extraction delayed because of risks while on Alendronic Acid
Went for a molar tooth extraction yesterday. It had cracked at the side of an old filling and extraction is the only option. When I told the Dentist I was on Riveroxyban, Steroids and Alendronic Acid, he immediately told me that my extraction will have to be delayed for at least several months while

Steroid injection into Kiloid Scars
I have a dermatology appointment on Saturday (yes an NHS appointment on a Saturday) to review treatment of kiloid scars. I think one of the options suggested may be direct steroid injections into the scars themselves. I have had PMR for 9 years and have at last got stable on 7 mg prednisolone daily

How it feels to have stopped steroids
Hi, just looking for some reassurance really. I stopped Prednisolone in November and felt OK, some stiffness in legs but no pain. And yoga and weekly exercise class has helped. Probably like most I felt much better when we got those odd spring days. And last week cut down a couple of bushes in the

Eczema.
Hi, I was diagnosed with an underactive Thyroid in April 2020. I am currently on 75 mcg of Levothyroxine. In the last couple of months, I have started to devolope patches of eczema. The GP has prescribed me with some steroid cream and I also use Hydromol emollient. However, neither of these products

Numb Lower Lip and Chin
This morning (So Cali time), the left side of my lower lip and chin were numb. This evening, my whole lower lip and chin are numb. Has anyone experienced this with PMR, GCA or steroids? Feeling a bit panicky.

Falls
Okay, my new friends, I could use a little help. I've started falling. I'm hoping the steroid infusions I'm now getting will stop that (on day 2 of 3!) but I've found this morning that I still need to be really careful. I've almost fallen several times today already (it's only 7:18 AM here!) and I'm

Severe Eosinophilic Asthma
Hi does anyone on here suffer from Severe Eosinophilic Asthma? My husband has been very incapacitated by this since March 2020 which came on suddenly and has not improved since then despite continuous steroids, inhalers and trying the latest injections. He’s had to pack up his business and still cannot

Methotrexate
Hi, I have been on Prednisolone for the past two years for PMR and after various flares, ups and downs, am currently tapering and am at 9.5 mg daily, decreasing 0.5 mg every two weeks. At a routine drug review at the surgery this week the pharmacist said she was surprised I had not been put on Methotrexate
