My rheumy wants me off of prednisone as soon as possible
First of all, thanks to everyone who replied me, and gave me valuable advice on my previous post. This is an update. Previously, I mentioned that I wasn't happy with my first rheumy appointment as she thinks I don’t need steroids because my inflammation markers are in a normal range and this is not a

My Knees
So….. I have been unable to walk let alone run since I developed knee pain almost 2 weeks ago after completing week 1. I am now at the point where I can reduce the painkillers although the pain is still there I can tolerate it and ‘hobble’ around. I am unsure if I should try the C25K again in a week

A little late
I haven't been able to draw or paint for months -- just no inspiration, and a lack of faith in my own abilities. This week I bought a blending stump (eh?) and produced the attached, which I call Nature Red in Tooth and Paw. Sorry it's late for Off Topic Friday. On the Care Community side of things,

nagging Headaches plus UTI
hi all Been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, doctor thinks is because of a shock (my husband was in hospital for 7 months and lost both his legs). My question is. Does anyone else have a slight nagging headache. Nothing that is a major pain, just a nagging headache which pain killers cannot move Also

Endometriosis?
I have had crippling ovulation pain since having a caesarian 11 years ago. My GP prescribed me laxido to edal.lwith the severe trapped wind pain and reluctantly referred me for a laparoscopy but when I attended the appointment it was way too painful and I couldn't go ahead with the procedure. I continued

Other than that I was told I had mild endo at that point. It the took me a further three years to conceive (two failed ivf’s) and I naturally

Pernicious anaemia?
I am a 60 year old male leading a healthy, low stress lifestyle. I have never had any medical conditions (apart from a bout of pancreatitis a couple of years ago) and never been on any medications apart from the occasional pain killer or dose of antibiotics. I exercise and meditate daily. I don't drink

Told fibro but wasnt
Ive found out recently for sure that my so called fibromyalgia was a lack of estrogen caused first by the menopause, giving me many debiliating symptoms, and then when I had a hysterectomy it suddenly got far far worse, dangerously so. What worries me is that none of the doctors thought about what was

Good-bye and thank you all
I have not been on here every week. Sometimes not for several weeks. But then when meds get changed and the cancer changes, I would come back on. Many of the ladies on here were helpful and gracious. They understood things that my friends could not even comprehend bc they were not the ones battling

got covid bad,do I stop arthritis meds.
hi, been 3 days since tested positive on lateral flow. I'm currently on benepali and strong pain killers though the illness is bizarrely making it less painful to move. This version is supposed to be just a cold but I feel alot worse. Does anyone know about biologics. Should I stop?

TENS Machines and AF
Hi, I recently posted about painkillers (for Femoral Nerve pain in my case) and the myriad potential side effects including heart rhythm problems, which put me off taking any painkillers at all. At an appointment with a physiotherapist today I asked if a home TENS Machine could be used to alleviate
