Anti-D

My midwife is anything but dynamic and hasn’t bothered to book my anti d injection despite knowing it was coming up to being due… she even mentioned it at the last appointment.

Hey everyone, I’m 20 weeks pregnant and been told I’ll need Anti D at 28 weeks. I cut my finger tonight whilst slicing vegetables and did the silly thing of sucking my finger, and I’m just wondering if I need to contact the out of hours midwives to get my Anti D early.

I’ve had some brown spotting last night ans today and as I’m over 12 weeks 100% thought I would need an anti d due to being rhesus negative. They’ve always been pretty firm on new bleeds after 12 weeks you need one.

I’ve had RA for 5 years and been on sulfasalazine and methotrexate, but the ends of both my feet and all the toes are red and swollen and it’s becoming painful to walk. They have been swollen for coming up to 4 years and the Rheumy doctor is pretty sure it’s RA. I’ve tried an anti-TNF inhibitor adalimumab

I took Paroxitine 40mg (Anti depressant) for 20 years to treat a diagnosis of Depression and Anxiety and I also took a high dose of 500mg Pregablin daily for about 5 or 6 years.

The thought of having drugs with side effects makes me run a mile and so I started my research that brought me here. I was prepared

Dear all, I hope you are all well and not much in pain. Now my older daughter is also diagnosed with SLE, i feel life is a bit more challenging and she is a new mum. I wonder if anyone can suggest couple of brands for Vitamin D. Everytime I take an over the counter brand, it makes me very sick. Any

I'm extremely angry. I spoke with my endocrine nurse about 2 months ago as I was feeling tired. She refused to do bloods as I'd had them done early March and all was fine.( Full thyroidectomy 10 years ago). I argued the toss with her but she flatly refused. Told me to see gp.I left it for a while to

I am not really sure what I am hoping to get out of this post, because ultimately I cannot change this now and maybe no one knows. I'm single and egg freezing. I am taking DHEA, Pregncare Conception Max, Ubiqnol and Vit D. I am trying to eat more healthy. One thing I haven't been super successful

Hello, I'm a women in my mid 30s and have recently been informed by my GP that I have 'subclinical hypothyroidism' after a blood test showed my TSH level was 9.7 mIU/L [range: 0.27 - 4.2]. My GP said she wouldn't usually prescribe Levo in my case, but because I am trying to conceive she did and is
