ibuptofen?
I am about 10 weeks post aortic valve replacement. Prior to learning I had aortic valve stenosis earlier this year I always regarded ibuprofen as a superior pain killer to paracetamol. Might have something to do with a childhood in Nottingham where it was developed by Boots! Tended to use it for the

I stopped steroids rapidly and all PMR symptoms returned - HELP!
Hi, I have only found this group today so I am really pleased to find ANYONE else who has PMR! I have difficult situation as I was responding really well 25mg of steroids per day, when I developed a CSR in my eye. I have had one before from Stress a couple of years ago and knew this was a risk,

Osteochondral defect, loose bodies in the knee and Baker's cyst.
Hi everyone,Hope you are all managing. Since the beginning of the year, I have been experiencing tear sensation at the back of my right knee. When I told my mum she said it might be that I have added weight. That it would stop when I reduce some weight. In April, I experiened a locked knee. It was

Hope, perhaps?
Hi everyone, I just wanted to post a little positivity on here! I know how difficult it is to live with endo (of course), so I wanted to share any positive experiences to anyone who might need it.I had my first laparoscopy (both diagnostic and therapeutic, in the end), in July, so I'm about 6 weeks out

Pred and painkillers
Hi all Can you tell me what painkillers are safe to take with Pred. Is ibuprofen and aspirin off limits and if so what do you suggest for general aches and pains. Many thanks.

Increased bleeding after first scan…
hi everyone, this is my first post. First IVF cycle. I have PCOS and my bleeds are [u]extremely[/u] unpredictable. I started my current cycle with very light murky bleeding and because there was nothing else to go on and none of my bleeds are the same, we started the protocol given by our doctor.

Urgent help needed. Extremely severe RLS, cannot identify cause.
It's so goddamn severe that at this point, I either have the most severe case of RLS in medical history or it's something else. I rate it 9 on the severity scale. Did every possible test related to RLS (iron, vitamin D, etc) except for for transferrin saturation and serum iron because it wasn't available

Endo history lesson!!!!
On a bored afternoon today, i thought i'd look up when Endo was first diagnosed. It was about 1860, here in England. I wonder how women coped then???. Was it getting drunk that helped numb the pain, cos there were no painkillers like we have today i think. I have endo at the minute, it feels like

37 M, Functional Tremor, with hyperreflexia, dysphagia, SBD, and urinary incontinence. All diagnosed.
How can I have so many positive neurological findings and tests and be told that all of the stiffness/rigid feeling that has slowly developed and worsened the past 3 years be entirely FND? I was under the impression that FND, not just functional tremor, required a lack of positive neurogenic findings

Recovery time
Hello folks, it's been a while since I posted, or had anything to post about. I have to retire to my bed or any horizontal surface these days as my fractured vertebrae are soon put to the test and become uncomfortable if I'm sitting or standing for a while. Speed bumps are a menace and I always have

post CRR-D procedure
I had a CRT-D procedure test yesterday and all went well the cardiologist and nurses were amazing. I feel as though I can actually breathe normally now which is amazing. My question is how long does the wound take for the pain to ease off where you don’t have to take painkillers? Thank you, Joy

Twenty twenty was the year all went wrong that's crystal clear. Things had not been going well before that date, just to tell. Ailments I'd not had before taxed me like a plague of yore. Unknown this and unknown that caught me square and laid me flat. Muscles cramping so in pain no relief drove

Ampyra
I have been on Ampyra/Dalfampridine for about 4 years. I am thinking of stopping as it is expensive. What effect may it have on my MS? does anyone have any thoughts?

Update- any hope for my reconsideration request?zero points for PIP and doesn’t tally with anything I said at interview.
Update: finally finished filling out reconsideration. It’s taken so long and has been making me really anxious. When I got the report from my assessment it seemed to hinge on a paragraph she had copied and pasted for each section stating I had no significant input for pain and mental health. I have provided

When the drugs don’t work
Where to begin… my poor Mum had her first hip replacement in 2007, but it broke and she had a revision in 2008. Unfortunately she was in more pain than ever, and they were about to write the pain off as psychological but thankfully she got referred to an Orthopaedic Specialist hospital who discovered

Tramadol versus Buprenorphine Patch.
Just a short post as I’m getting very depressed by constant pain from Severe Spinal Stenosis. I had a Laminectomy which failed (Triple Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair also) now diagnosed with Heart Failure so no “normal” painkillers. Pain Management have advised me to try Tramadol prior to possibly using

Amitriptyline
Hi all, I've had ibs -c for many years. Last year I was in so much pain in my hips my doc sent me for an xray it turned out to be an impingement. My doc gave me amitriptyline as a painkiller. Oh my word they worked wonders. I was regular as clockwork no bloating. I had been on a diet with no weight loss
