Stem cell transplant (SCT) 15 months on
I'm now 15 months after my SCT and in my my recent review my figures are improving:WBC 4.0 HB 139 Neut 2.3, lymph1.12 and platelets 106 ( highest for a couple of years). I also had my CD4 lymphocytes measured and can now come off Acyclovir and pentamidine. Hooray! I hated those nebulisers. This leaves

OPEP therapy for bronchiectasis
17 months of sticky mucus and blocked airways have resulted in many courses of different antibiotics, a bronchoscopy, lung wash, scans, x-rays. I've had diagnoses of asthma, bronchiectasis, nasal polyps, though scans show no bronchiectasis. Tests do show the persistent presence of HIB, which my doctor

Azithromycin vs Tezpire/tezepelumab
Hi there. I was wondering if anyone on these drugs can give input into what works best for them. I randomly got diagnosed in my 30s with asthma last year, normally fit and well. I have been in and out of hospitals since last year with horrific exacerbations, and have been unable to work for a year

Waiting anxiously for CT results- Part 2
Hi all, you may remember my first post last week while I anxiously waiting my CT scan results and today I've had them. As expected there is some deterioration and there is some 'solid scar tissue around the airways in the lung bases, along with slightly more prominent dilation of the airways'. Is this

UCTD and penicillin allergy and use of hydroxychloroquine
Hi all - I’ve just been diagnosed with UCTD (after many years of symptoms!☹️ ) and have been prescribed Hydroxychloroquine. Consultant gave me a leaflet where it says macrolide antibiotics, such as erythromycin, are contraindicated. I’m allergic to penicillin, so my go-to if I do get an infection is

Azithromycin
Does anyone else take Azithromycin 3 times a week prophylactic? Just wondering if you have to take your rescue antibiotics due to chest infection, do you stop the Azithromycin?

GI Report and recommedations
Ok so I have the written report from the GI consultant which thank goodness is overall very reassuring. Advice now at recommends continued treatment with dietary changes, frequent and small meals, no spicy and nothing 3-4 hours prior to bedtime. Although in all honesty laying down is not a major issue

Scalp infection and Amoxicillin
I've had a really uncomfortable scalp and beard infection for the last 4 years (red angry spots, some puss filled, which really swell up and are painful) and the only thing which really helps is Amoxicillin (which clears it up for about a month). But.... my doctor won't regularly prescribe it to me,

Azithromycin
For those taking this drug through winter three days a week do you take 250mg or 500mg ? Does anyone take it for five days on occasions ? I am finding three days. Mon, Wed, Fri not quite enough at the moment. Thank you.

Allergic Asthma
Hi AllLooking for advice or perhaps just to know that I'm not alone and someone else found their way off this merry go round. I'm a 59 year old Developer and was very keen on sport all my life. Both my grandfather's died of lung "disease" (I watched one taking his last breaths, horrible). My GP warned

Is it ok to take azithromycin with paroxysmal Afb but no episodes for three years.
Consultant has prescribed azithromycin to be taken every three days because I did say I had an exacerbation two years ago, although I am not sure it actually was. Also this entails undergoing three ECGs a month apart. Don't like the sound off that. I also suffer mild bronchiectasis, so I suppose I am
