Good morning to all! "The pain is not going to get better. what I have is a progressive disease. " Told my pharmacist today and will tell my GP and MAID shrink next week the following week Then I will schedule pain specialist. I went from being in bed in Canada to Mexico where I was standing in a
Seglentis is generically celecoxib and tramadol hydrochloride. Whether it is more effective and safer than other opioids I guess will be known soon. I still dream about a totally effective non-addictive pain medicine. I doubt this is it but at least they're still working on it. See drugs.com
I’m not sure why I’m sharing this, so many are so much worse off than I am but here I am hoping that maybe someone will have had a similar experience and may have an answer or a thought…this may be all over the place but I’ll try and stay in a two year timeline order 54f I have had back pain since
Hello, I have a few questions about Scheuermann's disease and pain management. Right now I'm at the place where the pain is becoming almost unbearable. I've tried many different pain medications, such as amitriptyline (for chronic pain), tizanidine, celecoxib, gabapentin, ketoprofen, and etoricoxib.
Sorry, this is long, I’ll try to keep this brief. Basically, I’ve had chronic back pain for as long as I’ve been alive- diagnosed with mild scoliosis at 7. Did physical therapy, had every physical therapist tell me the scoliosis wasn’t the problem. Turned 18, could take myself to a doctor, got diagn
After almost four years of suffering through various forms of chronic pain, I was finally put on a muscle relaxer (cyclobenzaprine aka Flexeril at the lowest oral dose of 5 mg ONCE per day, AND ONLY when needed during a flare - so not even the recommended dosing instructions of 5mg 3x per day, lol.
Doctors in the UK are pretty primitive about fibromyalgia and its implications. I'm a doctor myself and know how the vast majority of my colleagues are ignorant of the condition, outside of a rheumatologist they either don't bother treating it or will aggressively peddle non treatments because "it's

Hey there! I’m coming up on 30 years living with RA. I was diagnosed as a young woman - only 22 years old! I was originally diagnosed seronegative RA, but am now seropositive. I’ve been on biologics over 25 years. I’ve managed to lead a full life after diagnosis: corporate career, two kids, world tr
hi guys, I recovered from long Covid, it started beginning 2022 for me and I relapsed many times, because any time I recover I’d get Covid again and bam another 3 months in bed. I’ll probably get it again, if I get Covid again. But I really pray and take all precautions to not get it. I know it’s di

Hi everyone, I'm writing on behalf of my partner, because we’re both overwhelmed and could really use some advice and support. After nearly **8 years of pain and being misdiagnosed**, he was finally diagnosed with **Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS)**. For years, doctors said it was just stress, posture,
Edit: some folks brought up the very good point that you need to balance effects of any treatment against the effects of doing nothing. I was only focusing on the side effects of TNFi bc that's what I received a bunch of good (published) shareable info from my doc on, but we have had previous conver
I have been doing a lot of AI deep searches to find a way to reduce PD progression by using various supplements. Below is the extract of the findings. I suspect that for people at the early stages of PD might benefit from the effects and potentially slow down PD progression. If we have enough peo
I just switched insurances (new job), and my new insurance won't cover Enbrel for psoriatic arthritis, preferring one of 3 other TNF blockers. I've been on Enbrel for the last 5 years, and would really rather not switch away from something that's working so well, especially since I work in healthcar
