Angina and arthritis pain.
I have had for many years ischeamic heart disease (7 stents) damaged area of heart muscle due to two heart attacks back in 2014 plus AF. I also suffer with osteoarthritis in various joints the latest most recent in my right hip. This is constantly giving me severe pain that pain killers won't touch.

Steroid injection and surgery
Hi all , I'm just wondering if anyone knows how long you have to wait after steroid injection in the bottom before having gallbladder removal I've been told operation will be in 2 to 3 mths unless a cancellation comes in. But a friend said I'll have to wait 3mths now

Puzzled
I went for a Rheumatology appointment yesterday as I’d had to stop Etanercept for the 2nd time due to tonsillitis, itchy rash sore eyes, blurred vision etc. I saw a nurse practitioner who said I didn’t need a steroid injection and because and I have another appointment with my new Consultant in November

From Prednisone to Morphine
I was wondering if anyone had been offered Morphine as an alternative to Prednisone? It’s been suggested to me by my new Rheumatologist recently. He’s questioning my diagnosis of PMR & suggests the pain is due to “wear & tear”. My pain is symmetrical, in all the usual places (knees, hips, shoulders,

Tinnitus and Meniere's
Has anyone ever received Intratympanic steroid injection in their ear(s) for Tinnitus or Meniere's? I was just curious if it was worth it and made matters better. Is the injection painful or create other issues? My ENT has recommended it for my left ear which has a variety of issues. Thanks.

Finally a little light!
Many of you have been kind in giving me advice and support over the last year, especially when I was 'wading through treacle'. A few weeks ago I had another steroid injection and leflunomide added to my MTX. I hardly dare say this but I'm actually starting to feel better. My joints have gone down so

Pes Anserine Bursitis - steroid injection offered.
On Thursday I had an appointment with a rheumatologist who had previously been quite impatient and dismissive of me. I made up my mind to give him the briefest details of my woes over the last 9 months. (This is a 6 monthly appointment 😂). He was happy for me to continue with my slow tapering and then

What is classed as a flare?
Hi, I was diagnosed in November, had a steroid injection and started on MTX, once the steroid started wearing off the pain and swelling in my knees returned straight away but not in my hands, they have been great. Had a load of fluid sucked out of my knee and another steroid injection about 6 weeks ago
