Hi everyone, please be in mind previously OA traumatic spine and joints will significantly deteriorate with flares. Contact me for alternative treatments. Take care and I might produce a video soon.

Thank you very much!

Thank you for this talk on PMR. I am taking prednisone - second time around and tapering 1mg per month down to zero. I am intrigued by your comment on tapering every two months below 5mg and will ask my doctor about that.

Clear explanation Thank you Doc.

I wish, sir you would educate the doctors out there, sadly so many people are not diagnosed and left to fend for themselves. Sadly, I had to get prednisone from Mexico on my trips. There are other countries in order to treat myself.

Sadly. So many doctors don’t know or are not aware to look at these symptoms.. I would tell them I went from 48 to 90 and some mornings I was in such pain.. morning gs were awful.. day it would be better, but after sitting for a while it was painful and not easy.. thank god by coincidence my foot doctor gave me prednisone pack and first two pills helped

Thank you Dr,

Thanks

Very educational material, much appreciated!🫡😎👍

Thank you so much from Iraq ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Thanks

Thank you for this information. I live with PMR and this helps me to understand the disease. My Rheumatologist is putting me on Kevzara to get me off of a long term treatment with prednisone.

Would the xray have to be taken when you have the flare up? Or can it be taken anytime and it would show the crystals.

Constitutional symptoms such as fever have been reported and The vigorous inflammation attacks that occur can last weeks to months whereas in go it is typically days to weeks flares can be poly articular as in OA could look just like RA on some occasions especially when affecting the flanges of the hand and wrist x-ray of neck or CT can show calcium deposit can look much like angina severe damage can look like charcoal joints asymptomatic Condro calcinosis discovered incidentally OA found in unusual places should raise suspicion the diagnostic criteria aren't clear but typically one of two is probable and two of two is definitive the two be in observable signs on x-ray as well as tangible evidence from fluid draw in a joint upon positron light spectrum aspirate the deposited crystals from the synovial fluid polarize light microscopy x-ray evidence of Condro calcinosis not as easy to control acute episodes as is gout medication's used for RA such as hydrochloric Quinn rheumatoid like picture

Muy buena explicación

Thank you for the presentations! this is incredible

excellent teaching, thank you

Excellent presentation! Would you be open to questions?

Thank you! Great presentation. Are you open to questions?

I'm a CPPD patient not a medical student, but this video was very helpful in understanding my situation. I'm definitely in the acute category with CPPD symptoms in my shoulders, wrists, fingers and right foot. Until I viewed this video, I thought my foot might be a separate issue, but the CPPD symptoms occur there too. I believe I now have some fresh information to take back to my rheumatologist for discussion when we next meet. Thanks very much!

This is very well described in the book "What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Fibromyalgia" by St.Amand and Marek, 1999. It is caused by inability to excrete phosphate by the kidney leading to buildup and accumulation. Treated with guaifenesin to open up the tubules. Worked for me.
