Hello!
Hi everyone! I just started listening to 'Heal Your PTSD' and this forum was suggested. I'm pretty well on the road to healing, but can't shake lingering fear some days. I have been in CBT therapy a year and a half, only going once every few months now, and I'm about to finish up EMDR in a couple weeks

Does anyone know anything about the use of deflazacort instead of prednisone for PMR?
Searching the web tonight for prednisone information, I came across deflazacort for the first time. It seems to have better characteristics in terms of less bone loss and other side effects. The article I found (link below) talks about kidney transplantation; does anyone know whether it is being used

How bad do visual difficulties get?
My dad has recently been diagnosed with CBD and we are devastated! I honestly thought he had PSP because his symptoms started with visual problems and this has continued to be one of his main problems. But he has an 'alien limb' - his right arm and hand -, which I know fits with a diagnosis of CBD.

Standing up for myself and other vulnerable people.
I just won a battle against Southern Electric.(SSE) Up to a year ago I've been happy with SSE. I'm registered with SSE as vulnerable. I pay by dd and always overpay. Soon after lockdown started SSE rang for a meter reading because no meter men were working. I explained my breathing problems and

UPDATE - aqueous shunt implantation
Yesterday my partner went back to Moorfields in the early morning. I couldn't go with him so was waiting for news. It was all good. His pressure has gone from 3 post surgery to 8. He got a device to allow him to put his own drops in. His eye is looking good, his vision has slightly improved each day.

This is why you should ALWAYS view your own blood results.
I was diagnosed Nov 2018, despite a blood test 7 months before not being processed and me being incorrectly informed all normal. But now I’ve discovered I was hyper years before getting diagnosed. Since setting up online access (with help from this forum on how to start going about it) I been going

Excruciating headaches
I was diagnosed with Acute glaucoma 2 months ago, but over the last few weeks I've been suffering eye pain and almost continuous excruciating headaches plus tinnitus on the same side as the headache and clouded vision ! Has any has these same symptoms with Glaucoma ? It's quite a struggle with it...

Zeroing in on optimal dose of Synthroid/Cytomel combination.
I've been tinkering with different thyroid drugs & doses since the NP Thyroid went sideways in March 2020. I think I'm close to my optimal dose and the good news is that the RT3 decreased from 32.5 to 23.8 mg/dL. Current dose: 112 mcg Synthroid & 20 mcg Cytomel. Background is that I had a full thyroidectomy

Diagnosis wait
Hello, wonder if anyone in Uk has difficulty with waiting and time spent trying to get diagnosed. I had abnormal LFTs for a couple months, fatigue,itching, unable to work. I am having a phone consult on Monday thankfully. As yet, no indepth tests. My Human Resources at work are not familiar with this

A good stand up reminder. Being sedentary can worsen PD.
I have tried many reminders including manual/digital timers, iWatch, standalone apps, etc. but this lightweight free "eyeCare" Chrome extension is the best of all that I've tried thus far with audible/visual notification with adjustable time. It's actually a reminder app to exercise your eyes to prevent

Antibiotics and immunosupressant??
Hello, I just managed to get an eye infection and the GP prescribed chloramphenicol eye ointment and flucloxacillin. I already take methotrexate, hydroxichloroquine and prednisolone. She told me to check with the rheumatology nurse to see if I need to stop the immunosuppressant. I tried to get in touch

Amitryptaline side effects
Hi can anyone tell me what side effects they had from amitryptaline. I was on 25mg and was ok apart from a little groggy and dry mouth. GP has upped the dose to 50mg because I wasn’t sleeping with pain in my neck and head. I feel dreadful. Very zombie like and can’t concentrate. I did however sleep last

Problems with secondary Sjogrens
Has anyone had increased problems with secondary Sjogrens? I have RA and both are controlled with MTX and Hydroxy. Just lately the dry mouth is back with a vengeance, has anyone had this happen and if so, anything done to help? Hospital said see GP but that doesn`t seem right to me

Any social care for elderly alone with glaucoma?
My father had glaucoma and I get my eyes checked once a year at the opticians. My pressures are going up-they were high at my last eyetest, though came to the top end of normal in a second different test, and I am really worried I will get glaucoma. The main reason it worries me is that I have no

Eye allergy and laser treatment
I have been using glasses and contact lenses for eight years now. I'm doing a computer job and sits for more than 8 hours in front of the computer. I'm suffering from migraines. When I feel a headache, I remove my glasses, and after some time, I will put it on. Then I feel like my eyes are burning, and
