Wow! Received letter in post for referral for injection! That was fast.

Maybe, yeah. I’ve attended a CFS clinic run by OT’s when first diagnosed and some years later a Fibromyalgia clinic that was run by Physio’s. Neither of which had any lasting or helpful effect. Other than that I’ve had pain relief but couldn’t tolerate it.

“Re-assessments, which form part of the on-going review process, should be reduced in frequency where a person can supply medical evidence to show that their condition has stabilised for a period of years and that all appropriate approaches to management have been tried. Information on 5-year...

Grateful to all who attended to raise these very relevant issues.

I agree. Thank you.

Yes, it’s the only thing that eases my husbands back and hip pain too.

Wow, thank you!

“8 Christine had reported that she had been able to convey the reality of ME, the reality of living with ME its impact on daily life and mobility in respect of PIP and also the impact and life changing effect on the sufferer, carers and the whole family. She had also emphasised the particular...

Oh, that’s something I wasn’t aware of. Thanks.

Yes, that’s the main thing. It was the Dr who insisted on the home visit - I thought I’d heard wrong at first. She was quick too. She’s prescribed more Difflam cream - an anti inflammatory cream that I can use and it helps. I know. Ice helps but I’m limited as to what I can use regarding pain...

Thanks for that, yes that would be helpful.

Thank you @Trish :hug:

I’ll watch and see if it clears, for a couple of weeks. Not the energy to get to see GP yet. Thanks.

I always have pain in my hip joints to varying degrees. Currently I’m having a flare up of pain all over my body, including deep aching joints, tenderness and skin sensitivity that feels sore when anything touches it. I bump into things regularly, sometimes when I’m dizzy, other times when...
