Permanently damaged vision due to dry eyes?
I've had Limited Scleroderma for about 12 years. A year ago, I noticed that the vision in my left eye had become blurred. 3 opticians and 4 opthalmologists later (because I never see the same person twice, and every one starts at the beginning - what a ludicrous system), we have finally reached the

Depo-Medrol Injection and nausea
Hi everyone, Just wondered if anyone has had a chronic reaction to a steroid shot? I am only tiny and was given 120mg a month ago and I am literally grounded still with the worst nausea. I can barely eat and have lost 3/4 stone so am down to 7 stone ☹️ Is it possible I had too higher dose and my immune

morning agony
Hi I’ve not posted for a long time I’m still suffering badly with my ibs and 5 other stomach issues. Does anyone wake up with abdominal pain and constant bowel movements in the morning and terrible pain after. I’m at my wits end the doctors just want to give me more tablets I literally can’t take anymore.Amber

Total knee replacement
19 days post op - been very tough especially when COVID thrown into the mix! My muscle tone wasn’t great pre-op but is now nonexistent. Is it possible to build muscle tone with PMR? Without PMR it’s possible to build good muscle tone with regular exercises but no matter how frequently I do my post op

Bladder pain
Started b12 injections (sc) approx 6 weeks ago and have been experiencing bladder irritation and pain. Is this related to b12 injections? Otherwise feeling positive about the treatment. I've been ill for many years so not expecting to improve overnight. Thank you.

Easy squeeze eye drops
Happy and healthy new year to you lovely people. I have recently had a hand op and my other hand is giving up the ghost. I have Sjögren’s syndrome as well as ra and have to put eye drops in regularly. I was wondering if any of you use eye drops that are easy to squeeze or if any of you use a bottle applicator

GCA diagnostic dilemma
Thank you everyone who has helped so far. Last night I had a message from Rheumy saying I should go to the hospital for an emergency biopsy, with the headache and unusual severe temporal pain being the driver. He said that U/S was so ‘operator sensitive’ as to be unreliable in this ‘locality’. The

QUICK TAPER; CRP RISING STEADILY; FLARING
As suspected, the very quick taper rheumy thought up (2.5 mg per week til I get to 10, then reducing 1 mg per month), has caused a flare and I'm in pre-PMR pain - almost). Currently at 12 mg but should be down to 9 by now, if I was to go with her guidelines. GP refuses to let me up the pred saying "it's

First time Colonoscopy
I have my first colonoscopy on Thursday the 14th. I have been given Picolax. I am concerned about the prep as my friend told me you don't have time to get up the stairs to the toilet, and I should stay upstairs after taking the prep solution; is this correct? I'm really not sure about the sedative
