Corona Virus Guidance

[RobbieM]

Has anyone had any guidance from their consultant regarding thier medication during this period ie to suspend taking it as we are in the 'high risk' group?

[Mmrr]

NRAS put out a statement a few days ago, on here and their website, that you might want to read.

But, the last thing you would do is stop taking any medication, you could cause a re flaring up of your RD and make yourself very unwell and more prone to any infection, not just coronavirus.

The best advice is carry on as normal, wash your hands more often and thoroughly.

Remember coronavirus is very hyped up, the risk is small.

No I haven't but the advice from the NRAS is not to stop meds unless specifically told to do so by your Rheumy or Specialist Nurse. This explains healthunlocked.com/nras/pos...

DON'T STOP YOUR MEDS.

I think I'm a lot more worried for people with Asthma or any other lung or breathing problems.
