Quick recap: in hospital with pneumonia and Pred increased to 10mg (from 4.5mg). Saw GP on discharge and was prescribed 10mg for 4 weeks. He also cancelled my repeat prescription so he said to go back in 4 weeks. So, yesterday I saw another GP to renew my repeat prescription. Immediately I was asked

Hydroxychloroquine
Hello, Everyone was so helpful last time I posted about being stuck on 3 mg of pred for nearly 5 years and suffering flares when I go lower and the rheumy's desire for me to start methotrexate. With your support I told them I wouldn't continue with the methotrexate. It had a wretched effect on me and

Apixaban (Eliquis) and Omega 3 supplements
Hey All!! Question...Are others who take Apixaban (Eliquis) also taking Omega 3 supplements (that include DHA)? I've read that it could be problematic...increase length of time for bleeding, etc. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Has 3 years on Prednisolone caused all these problems?

The last few weeks, have been challenging for a few reasons. I'm currently 3 weeks into

I wrote in a week or so ago about rib pain and protruding left rib cage. Since then I've been to see a private rhematologist, then the practice nurse at my local NH surgery, and lastly took myself to A&E locally on Sunday. The rolling spasm I feel on and off just under the left ribs is the upper

Started my grandmother on TTFD
I am my grandmother's primary care taker. I recently learned about HDT and decided to try it on her. Every morning I videotape her eating, which I will use to see if her condition gets better or worse over time. She is 87, having parkinson's for at least 25 years. In the last year her on-state dyskinesia

Alendronic Acid
I have had 2 doses of alendronic acid and am currently experiencing a first painful, now vision- impairing inflammation in my right eye (steroid drops prescribed).. I see this mentioned as a possible side-effect of AA. Has anyone else experienced this?

Low Ovarian Reserve - (supplements to boost eggs quality)
I'm 44 with a low ovarian reserve and multiple fibroids (which thankfully is outside the cavity). My GP referred me for NHS fertility investigations but I was rejected due to CCG criteria. My GP applied for Individual funding request but I was rejected. I had a consultation with a fertility expert

Radio 4 programme today
just listened to today's Food Programme at 15.30 via the BBC Sounds app. Really really interesting about the effect of nutrition on the brain and the importance of omega 3. It's half an hour and a must to listen to in my opinion.

Alendronic Acid and Bloating
I've been taking A Acid now for a month and although things started off well I am now so bloated that I can't stand it! Does The Risedronate stuff have the same effect ? Would I be better off trying that one. Thanks....
