Recap on Intense pain post
I’ve had a CT in Fall of 2019 indicating a couple of bulging discs. Spinal stenosis, s curve scoliosis. I’ve tried chiropractic treatments as well as acupuncture, acupressure and meditate several times a day. I’ve been cautioned by my primary care physician who has a DO ( osteopathic medical degree).

Adalimumab - does it need tapering?
Does adalimumab need to be tapered like
steroids
? Or can one stop it if the desired effect of bringing down the inflammation is not achieved?

A glass of wine??
Whilst all info PMR and
steroids
state avoid alcohol, I am no lush but do love my six o’clock tipple. Since being diagnosed I have completely gone off red wine 😳😳 however Rose seems fine and apparently has many anti- inflammatory benefits and more reservatol.

Hello Again. Has anyone had an epidural steroid injection for shingles pain? I am scheduled for one and I'm scared. I have had trigger point injections in the past, but those go into muscle where this would go to the nerves that shingles infect. This doctor is very good at what she does so I have no

We've now done 2 FETs with exactly the same protocol (
steroids
/ intralipids / ERA timing / PGT-A normal embryo) as our successful one - and both have been BFN.

first orthotics
disappointed. The podiatrist hardly looked at the foot and spent most of the appointment typing then without any measurements or gait test said he’s ordered me a pair that would arrive by post in the fullness of time. I suspect these will be no better than the well known brand I ordered online and

Lupkynis approved in Switzerland to treat adults with lupus nephritis
Findings suggested that Lupkynis helped preserve kidney function when given alongside mycophenolate mofetil and low-dose
steroids
(well-established anti-inflammatory therapies for lupus), without substantially increased safety risks.

Anyone on biologics and suffering leg ulcers
Due to being on
steroids
and antiplatelets, as well as Benepali and MTX, the skin tear didn’t reattach. I now have a leg ulcer, as well as another on my shin, caused by my nail ripping my skin, when taking my leggings off.

Medications that reduce an overactive bladder
A friend, who is not on
steroids
, has just been diagnosed with an overactive bladder and has been prescribed solifenacin (Vesicare) and says she no longer gets up at night. I just wondered if anyone else suffers and has been prescribed the same or similar medication and finds it works.

Anyone had back (muscle) spasms? Is it linked to PMR?
I'm wondering if it is linked to the PMR or
steroids
because it has left me with weak muscles?

PMR Leading to Fibromyalgia???
So I must follow the guide lines and continue to reduce by 1mg every 4 weeks as she can't allow me to continue on the
steroids
. I have asked if I can go slower, say 0.5 mg every 4 weeks, asked about not dropping by more than 10%, she flatly refused.

Upper airway obstruction on spirometry?
So I have had a history of rhinitis/polyps for the past 14 years, it is treated with daily nasal
steroids
/(drops if bad) and an antihistamine- though all allergy tests have been negative.
