Joint Pain On Prednisone

I've have horrible joint and body pain for several weeks. My ESR, CBC, RF, ANA, and thyroid tests all came back negative. My MD did a lab send out for more specific tests, but they aren't back yet. I was seen in the emergency room today for unbearable pain, and was started back on prednisone. Three weeks ago was the first time I was placed on prednisone. I tried to taper off twice in the last three weeks and had my pain come back 2-3 days after stopping. Has anyone else ever had these symtoms despite the negative tests mentioned?

I just switched to Tom's of Maine Toothpaste. I was using Colgate maximum strength Sensitive for my last two tubes. I'm not sure of the timeline, but I think some of my issues started after using Colgate. If Sensodyne is unsafe wouldn't Colgate Sensitive be unsafe?

I'm new to a celiac forum and will probably have many questions over the next several weeks. I need to start going through old posts and reviewing the vast knowledge of information already present.

I've not been feeling well for quite a while now and hope it's my celiac and not some undiagnosed problem.

hi,

I noticed this because right now my mom is on prednisone for joint and muscle pain. I wish I was there. They have tested her for things. Today she got more blood drawn. It upsets me that this is the 3rd time in a few weeks and she has not even mentioned that her daughter is gluten intolerant. She promised me that if nothing turns up with this round and they test her again that she will ask for the celiac test and Lyme test. My mom had Epstein Barr in the past and they forgot to retest for that.

Have you been tested for Lyme or Epstein Barr? Good luck, I know it is terrible to hurt.

Are you also taking ibuprofen?

A close relative of mine read the testimony of an internet poster. The poster said his/her joint pain was caused by ibuprophen. My relative had been taking ibuprofen for joint pain. It was getting progressively worse .......debilitatingly so.

This relative stopped taking ibuprofen, and the pain went away. The treatment turned out to be the cause.

.......seriously. Try it.

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
