This one's gonna be a long one..! - LPR: A chronic, troublesome puzzle
First of all I'd like to say that I have read the replies to my previous posts, and taken them to heart. I'd like to personally thank everyone who has offered their support so far. However I cannot take these replies to my head, as right now it is illogical to say that I have anything other than LPR,

Pain clinic
Went to my first assement at the pain clinic today didn't know what to expect, but it went ok first I saw a occupational therapy who was very good he was very understanding and knew what he was talking about, then I saw a physiotherapist who was also so very good he gave me some exercises to do and asked

PMR & hydrotherapy
I just wanted to share my experience with other sufferers - my consultant offered me hydrotherapy treatment for my PMR. I quickly realised the benefit of immersion in warm water so I joined a health club to enable me to swim regularly. Starting very gingerly at first I now swim for 20 mins 3 times

Upcoming mannitol challenge... and a bit of a rant
So, it's nearly a week to go before I have to have the mannitol challenge. As silly as it sounds, I am as anxious about the week without meds as I am about the test itself! The booklet instructs that I have to start stopping my meds a week before the actual test and without being able to take more time

No hope, no cure, no future. Hit rock bottom ;(
Forgive me for this extra long post, but I'm honest and truly at the end of my rope. The "s" word has crossed my mind a lot in the last few days, and I was hoping a session of hypnotherapy would relieve it. It didn't, in fact only moments after leaving I fell to my knees in tears. I'll explain my story

IDS claims he can live on £53 a week.
By last night almost 300,000 people had signed an online petition challenging Mr Duncan Smith to survive on £53 a week, or £7.57 a day, after he insisted he could "if I had to". It was set up when David Bennett, a market trader, told BBC Radio 4 that the sum was all he had to live on after his housing

Caring for my husband who has inoperable Stomach Cancer+Stent
Hi - This is my first post as a carer regarding my husband's cancer. He was diagnosed last autumn and started ECX chemotherapy early January. He was so very ill with severe side effects that chemo was stopped early. He lost most of his hair and has been hospitalised twice. He has been unable to

Where are the hospital gowns?
Hi - I was very surprised yesterday that I didnt have to change into a hospital gown for the Gastroscopy! I kept all my ordinary clothes on. When I had a barium swallow recently, I had to change into a gown. I wonder if it's the new way of doing things? I would have thought a gown would have been appropriate

Constant temperature at home?
I've now received my leaflets/booklets from BLF and this caught my eye - keep your home at a constant temperature. Do people do this? Has it helped? What temperature do you heat your home to (I know personal comfort is an individual thing but I'd be interested to know)? Do you keep the

'Emotional' type stress
Hi all Does anyone else struggle with an increase in some symptoms when experiencing emotional trauma? I'm living with difficult family circumstances which have been going on for some time. After yet another difficult weekend, for the first time ever, I've called in sick at work, feel incredibly sad

My Neurology Appointment Didn't Go So Well This Week.
But I wasn't surprised, either. My existing symptoms seem to be escalating i.e. loss of balance and falls, and a few new ones that have snuck in there that concerned me. Such as the amount of times I've aspirated over the last several weeks. 1/2 a dozen maybe? Maybe it sounds like little to those

OxyNorm and Tramadol
Do OxyNorm and Tramadol combine effectively? For instance, if I want to top up the OxyNorm but don't want to go the whole hog of having another OxyNorm would a 50mg Tramadol be ok for breakthrough pain?

Barium was normal, why do I need Gastroscopy?
Hi - my barium swallow was normal, so I am just wondering why the consultant said I could have a motility problem caused by the Raynaud's, and have to have the camera down? Got my appt now, I go on Thurday. Will choose sedation. Thanks for all your previous replies, much appreciated.

Where to go for a diagnosis?
At present I have a diagnosis of myofascial pain syndrome and fibromyalgia, but I believe that my symptoms fit much better with Hughes- should I be looking to see a haematologist, endocrinologist or something else entirely? Thanks
