Answer 1

You need to see a Doctor...please do not take advice from here. With out knowing the contra indications of all the drugs you are on and your clotting status (I and R ) supplementing your drug intake could prove dangerous

Answer 2

Smoking weed.

It is deemed controversial but a trial (shown on ch4 a few years ago) has shown the effects are brilliant and that apparently it can prevent it from getting worse as quickly as opposed to if you didn't smoke it. Smoking weed allows the use of your bodily functions without pain and with ease. Only smoke a small amount though, not lots. Controlled environments are essential as the police do not believe this trial is acceptable.

Ask your doctor! They will tell you that it is actually quite good and controversial but they won't recommend it as they won't get any money for it whereas if you taken lots of pills, the doctors will get paid for supplying them.

A relative of mine did and she lived an extra 5years after the doctors said she'd be dead within a few months. Try it for a week and see. I hope you feel better.

Hi, you might find the site below useful

aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, indometacin, diclofenac (also know as volterol) and ketoprofen are all NSAID,s (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs)

they reduce pain and stiffness due to inflammation of the joints, without using steroids

you can get most of these without a prescription from your G.P

additional medication for pain relief depends on your level of pain and medical history

if you are asthmatic or have breathing difficulties you SHOULD NOT TAKE NSAID,s

pain releif that you can take with asprin without a prescription are:- paracetamol, paramol (contains df118) good for most sort of pain but can make you a little sleepy

co-dydramol 10/500 means that it contains 10mg codine and 500mg of paracetamol you CAN safely take these with your 75mg of asprin, but do not take any additional paracetamol

PLEASE NO NOT TAKE ANY OTHER DUEL ACTION OVER THE COUNTER PAIN MEDICATION

such as panadol as they contain asprin and you could run the risk of taking too much

if the co=drydamol are not easing the pain, then go back to your G.P, you could ask to be refered to a pain specialist.

You could ask him to prescribe you some codine, to take with your co=drydamol.

The one main side effect of taking codine on a regular basis is constipation

hope this has helped

Answer 4

Im not aware of a common reaction between aspirin and Paracetamol / dihyrocodeine.....75mg is a very small dose of aspirin......300 is an average tablet.......Mild anticoagulant effect for your DVT / femoston risk

Anti inflamatary drugs are risky for your symptoms

However im not a doctor but I used to be a risk assessor / care manager for a Homecare firm

Answer 5

This is a very serious answer.
There are naturals out there, which turned my life around at the same stage you are at, that was three years ago and I have never regretted it. I can't name the product for legal reasons, but it is totally safe, contains no drugs, gives the body all the hormonal support it needs, and can be obtained at a discounted price.
For testimonials about menopausal problems take al look at the website given.
Take care.

Answer 6

Sorry but it is the other way around, Rheumatoid is the aggressive form. I have Psoriasis and was originally diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis at 29. Come 34 I was flat on my back in Hospital, unable to walk and then they realized I tested positive to the Rheumatoid Factor, so I am odd. Very few will have Psoriasis and Rheumatoid Arthritis. I am just 49 and have already been measured for an electric wheelchair. Initially you do not state how your skin condition is? Is it under control? Not sure what you means by 'arthritis all over your body?' Psoriatic Arthritis usually starts in one joint: Psoriatic arthritis is a chronic disease characterized by inflammation of the skin (psoriasis) and joints (arthritis). Psoriasis is a common skin condition affecting 2% of the Caucasian population in the United States. It features patchy, raised, red areas of skin inflammation with scaling. Psoriasis often affects the tips of the elbows and knees, the scalp, the navel, and around the genital areas or anus. Approximately 10% of patients who have psoriasis also develop an associated inflammation of their joints. Patients who have inflammatory arthritis and psoriasis are diagnosed as having psoriatic arthritis. The onset of psoriatic arthritis generally occurs in the fourth and fifth decades of life. Males and females are affected equally. The skin disease (psoriasis) and the joint disease (arthritis) often appear separately. In fact, the skin disease precedes the arthritis in nearly 80% of patients. The arthritis may precede the psoriasis in up to 15% of patients. In some patients, the diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis can be difficult if the arthritis precedes psoriasis by many years. In fact, some patients have had arthritis for over twenty years before psoriasis eventually appears! Conversely, patients can have psoriasis for over 20 years prior to development of arthritis, leading to the ultimate diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis. In most patients, the psoriasis precedes the arthritis by months to years. The arthritis frequently involve the knees, ankles, and joints in the feet. Usually, only a few joints are inflamed at a time. The inflamed joints become painful, swollen, hot, and red. Sometimes, joint inflammation in the fingers or toes can cause swelling of the entire digit, giving them the appearance of a "sausage." Joint stiffness is common, and is typically worse early in the morning. Other blood tests such as rheumatoid factor are obtained to exclude rheumatoid arthritis! Methotrexate and Enbrel are both given primarily to treat the Psoriasis. By it's nature the skin will flare followed by the joints, then you go into remission. You do not state what dose of Diclofenac you are on, I have been on 150mgs dual release since 1989 and have no liver problems, or kidney problems and it works for me. However with over 100 different types of anti-inflammatory drugs available, you need to change until you find the one that suits you. Likewise due to the fact you have been diagnosed and received treatment, you should be under a Dermatologist and a Rheumatologist. These are the spcialists who deal with Psoriatic Arthritis and they will be able to prescribe pain killers, if they consider the Patient need them. Good Luck

Stuff the tablets down the Loo!

Take Aloe Vera Drinking Gel for your arthritis, it worked for me!

Oh, avoid ANYTHING with Aspartame in it. That stuff contains formaldehyde which makes your cartlidge brittle and makes your arthritis worse.
