Hi all. I went to see my consultant today and told her all about the pain Ive been in. turns out the shoulder pain Im having isnt related to RA but is a frozen shoulder so Im seeing my gp in a couple of weeks to get referred about this. I had my other shoulder operated on for the same thing 3 years ago. She has organised a steroid infusion for me for next Monday and my mx is increasing to 20 from next week & then up to 25 per week. I then see her about 4-6 weeks later and if the increased mx isnt doing it then we are going to talk about anti tnf. fingers (where possible!) crossed for the mx to work its magic!!

Hope you are all ok and enjoying the weather xx

Hiya Rose, I dont remember having steroids last time, however that was pre-ra. Ive got an appointment to see my gp on 17th Oct so hopefully he will refer me then. Im really hoping something can be done before Christmas (although someone has just told me that xmas is 12 weeks away!!!!!!)

Hi, I had an ultrasound scan done a couple of weeks ago. Freom my shoulder to half way down my arm ia apparently frozen shoulder symptoms and the rest of the arm is RA pain, lovely combination!!!
