Control freak.
Take
steroids
but tapering down to 4 and a half mg. Woke up with quit severe pain on top of shoulder. not injured shoulder. Is this part of RA not impress if so. Am so stiff and have pain in other joints but manageable. I just think what else is round the corner.

Very stiff knees and slightly puffy ankles
I have high BP and the
steroids
make that worse so there is pressure to reduce Pred. I am on quite a lot of BP meds. Thank you for everyone’s help.

Meniscus tear/PMR flare update
The senior GP is obviously one of those who are frightened of
steroids
and wants me off them regardless of any pain I have. I just hope I have built up enough of a supply of pred 🤞

Any advice for gastro symptoms which respond to steroids, but no diagnosis? Does normal colonoscopy cover the small bowel?
The only time I've felt this good was on the previous time I took
steroids
(approx 1.5 years ago). I'm not taking any loperamide or any of the prescription drugs and feel great. I'm assuming this will wear off once the effects of the
steroids
is out of my system.

Small Airways Disease
One week in hospital & antibiotics/
steroids
etc CT scan showed airway inflammatory changes & I had lost 25% of my DLCO, Now standing at 74%. He’s still insisting I don’t have copd (fvc/fev no where near .70) but mentioned small airways disease but didn’t say much more.

Tapering
Do I need to increase
steroids
until I have no pain before I can taper.

steroids
!......

steroids
and antibiotics and referred me urgently to Dermatology having sent a photo, saw Rheumatology consultant who did the same.

PMR and Breast Pain
I was diagnosed with GCA in 2016 and after many failed attempts managed to gradually reduce the
steroids
. Recently, I was diagnosed with PMR and am currently taking 10mg prednisolone. I have an ache from under my arms down into the side of both breasts. The left aside is worse than the right.

bfp then hcg levels went from 530 to 350. Is it all over? My clinic said it's a MC. Even though this was a natural conception post ivf
But the clinic said not to take any
steroids
or lubion progesterone ( only started them 2 days ago but found out I had lower hcg levels yesterday evening. I've not had a bleed yet had spotting which was one off then gone. No cramps etc or back pain.

Pluvicto going well
Side effects: • A little tired, but that was offset by a week of
steroids
as was any "rebound pain" from extensive mets in my pelvis and spine.
