CHANGE OF BIOLOGIC TREATMENT
Hello, I have had Rheumatoid arthritis since my late 30s (77 now). I had several biologic treatments , some of which did not really control the RA well… The best biologic was Enbrel (Etanercept) weekly injections. It gave me my life back for 14 years until I had my second knee replacement operation

Help with results and my doctor
HI I've been having challenges with my doctor, who won't listen to me despite some great articles and advice from this group. Back in November my TSH level was 4.83 (range 0.35 to 4.94) and T4 14.0 (range 9 - 19.05). I was on 50mg of levothyroxine for my UAT diagnosed in Sept 23. She refused to listen

Nerve damage
Since my carpal tunnel, cubitunnel and median nerve surgery 2 years ago, I have experienced horrible, constant seeking nerve pain in my left arm. My hand is deformed and I have no use of my arm and hand. After 2 hand surgeons, 2 PT's and a neurologist, all of whom said there was nothing they could do

Endo detection after surgery
Hi. I was just wondering when/how people who had surgery realised they still had endo in their bodies? I just had a laproscopy on May 3 and recovering fairly well. I can feel my next menstrual cycle starting and am feeling much of the same pain that I did before.[i] [/i][u][i]

Cosmetic surgery post transplant
Hello, Has anyone had cosmetic surgery post transplant? I’ve been doing surgery consultations and speaking with my nephrologist, planning for doing this in the future and have a sense of the risks. Currently on the fence, but curious if anyone else has gone down this path.
