Tendonitis how did I get this im not a sports person I do walk to park it is painful how do you cope????
Am not an expert, but after starting treatment for SLE 2 years ago, when I had my version of what you're experiencing I needed to see my drs and have my treatment plan reviewed & adjusted. Not sure what meds you're taking, but my feeling is that possibly they aren't adequate?
Also, once you've consulted your drs about these symptoms & they've adjusted your treatment plan, and once your tendons have recovered (a long slow process in my case....meditation helped me cope with this & the depression) my experience is that a vvvvv gentle regular excercise regime may help you stabilise and also help to guard against a tendency to tendonitis.
I'm also globally hypermobile which makes me even more suseptible to things like tendonitis ....really sore stuff: v much feeling for you. I've had SLE since infancy but wasn't told about the diagnosis, and had to cope via lifestyle management for years which was v depressing (am now 60). Things are a lot more bearable now I'm getting treatment though. Take care
Hi thanks for your advice I am going to gp on Tuesday and Im having an ultrasound x-ray tomorrow.
