Enbrel reaction
Hi, this is my first post. I was diagnosed with RA two years ago and I've tried Sulphasalazine, Methotrexate and Laflunomide but had adverse reactions to all of them. I was put on Enbrel three weeks ago and because I'm quiet sensitive to medication i.e. various antibiotics, the nurse who came to show

I disappeared for a long time
I haven’t written in a long time. I still read most of the postings. Like most of you, i’ve been up and down. Mostly down. Besides the fibro I have bursites in both my shoulders. I swear to you i can’t lift my right arm. Even when i don’t move it, it feels like a spike straight through my shoulder

Update on Mum's Knee
Hi All An update on Mum's knee, we saw an Orthopaedic Registrar just after Christmas who said the only real option Mum would have had if she did not have the Multiple Myeloma was the knee replacement. The other option was a steroid injection into the joint but she would not be sure of being able to

RA treatment
Hi everyone, I have been feeling very well since my first steroid injection over a month ago. I have met with my rheumatologist and have decided not to start Methotrexate as I am planning to start trying for a family in 12 - 18 months and didn't want to risk the side effects. He has recommended I start

Painful and Persistant Flare
Hi everyone. Back in August i had 15mg of Mtx Mixed with my sulazalazine but the mtx gave me the most violent of headaches, in October my rumey reduced the mtx to 10mg to try and elevate the headaches which worked. I continued taking 10mg and was free from headaches and pain. Until the week before

Chesty cough/cold for 5 days. When to seek medical advice?
I have sle. ( On mycophenolate and hydroxychloroquine. Had steroid injection 2 weeks ago.) Started a cough and cold on boxing day. Cough really productive and feeling exhausted. No temperature though. I think its probably just a viral thing but, when to see a doctor?? If I didn't have lupus I would

Lump in leg ...?
Hi, I have Lupus SLE and also have steroid injections for Osteoarthritis in both knees. Just recently I've noticed a lump forming just below my right knee on the front of my leg. I wondered if it could be to do with the injections and if anyone else had had the same happened to them at all. I don't

Thank you
I would just like to thank everyone who kindly responded to my post... The doctor came out last night and gave me a steroid injection that helped a lot . I still don't feel well, but certainly better than I did. He told me to increase the seretide and ventolin and if things get any worse to ring the

My RA Journey
We returned from a weekend away in September - the following day had a phone call saying the Rheumatologist had a cancellation and would I like it. So off I go not really thinking about what was about to happen. Arrive with a couple of minutes to spare and whisked straight into the Rheumatologists

New to this pain....update.
So yesterday was my first appointment with a rhumatolagist It was very emotional with tears and anger and as you can guess they have no diagnosis yet. It's obviously not gout she said but here is 3 weeks worth of treatment to trial. She dosnt think it lupus either but not straight forward RA either
