Diagnosis
My hubby saw the Neurologist for the 1st time on Monday. He is of the opinion he has Parkinsonism and not PSP. He wants him to do a trial of Co-beneldopa (Madopar) for 6 weeks to see what effect that has. Here's hoping it helps. Marcia

Moving back to UK (On Peginterferon)
Hi all, I am currently on bi-weekly Pegasys Peginterferon injections here in HK. I am planning on moving back to the UK this summer. Does anyone know or have experience about how to go about continuing my injections through the NHS when I return?

How often do you and partner have sex, honestly? Help

Pain injecting Pegasys
I have been injecting Pegasys for six months and it's always been painless. But today, although I didn't do anything differently, it was painful when I inserted the needle and emptied the syringe and remained painful for about a minute afterwards. It bled a little, but occasionally it does anyway. Could

Scalp allodynia. How does it feel like?
Hello everyone, The reason I am asking this is that my specialist has diagnosed me with scalp allodynia but I am still not convinced this is it. I read that allodynia is a sensitivity of the skin when touched. In my case, it is a stinging/burning/itching pain all the time, no touching involved. It actually

Re : Temporal Artery Biopsy question
Thank you for all your kind thoughts and advice. I went to see my eye doctor this afternoon and he confirmed a cataract in my right eye which will need surgery . Probably caused by Prednisone? Or just age related falling apart ! So relieved It’s not GCA. He said that the prednisone had helped avoid

Pegasys Injection Sites?
Hello, My mom got diagnosed with ET a few months back and just got started on Pegasys. She had her first injection today by the nurse in her upper arm. I understand that is a legitimate subcutaneous injection site, but from reading the posts here, it sounds like the most common site is the stomach.

Any dry mouth success stories?
Currently waiting for my new dose to kick in as I've been under-medicated for awhile. The symptom that worries me most is dry mouth. It affects speech, singing, eating, and—no one ever mentions this, but it's an obvious one—my sex life. So basically all of the good things. Very distressing. I'm finding
