Anyone having blood pressure issues following IV Avastin injections?

It is well documented that anti-vegf injections diminish the body's nitric oxide levels. This could likely have an effect on BP levels.

Balance problems with Anti TNF drugs?

Hi,I just wondered if anyone has experienced any problems with their balance since starting anti TNF? I was on Humira and am now on Imraldi once a fortnight. I have had balance problems for a while now, but always assumed it was related to my hearing loss problems. However, I had to have a break from

Hypothyrodism & autoimmune disease

Hi everyone. I'm new on here, so please bear with me. Following the removal of my left thyroid (it had been engulfed by a tumour - benign thankfully) in October, I have never felt more unwell in my life! I had a thyroid blood test on 5th Nov, which hospital said was 'in range, but at the very bottom'

Adulumimab and shielding in light of new information. Is it really still necessary?

/ I currently take adulumimab for RA. I am told to shield because along with Methotrexate 10mg weekly. I am immuno-suppressed. Yet this article https://pharmaphorum.com/news/uk-scientists-trial-anti-tnf-drug-for-covid-19-in-care-homes would seem to suggest that adulumimab is being used to treat elderly

Surprised nobody here is taking infliximab?

Hi, I'm new here, I have not read this whole year posts but I notice very few here are taking what is considered as the best treatment for Behcet: anti TNF alpha, best know as Infliximab or Humira and others. Studies from the past years are giving an 80% of success (full recovery) with these meds. If

Is it safe to have Anti-D before 28weeks?

The only appointment they can give me is when I’m 27+2 but all the information I can find stipulates it must be 28weeks or over to receive anti-D injection. Anyone had it early, any problems?? Getting a bit stressed regarding this. Thanks

RH NEGATIVE BLOOD WOMEN

Hi all. Please I want to know if there is anyone here who has an rh negative blood and had an abortion or miscarriage but did not have the rhogam shot and went ahead and become pregnant and your blood is not rhesus sensitized. When do you visit the clinic to be checked if you have the anti D antibodies

Has anyone started on a new treatment regime during lockdown?

I was on Sulphasalazine, Hydroxy and MTX for four months but had to stop the MTX in February owing to two major infections, one of which required a small operation. My RA nurse said I was to be put forward for a new treatment plan, with a Biologic or Anti-TNF in place of the MTX. Then Covid19 happened

Success with high BMI? or wait 2 years with low AMH?

Hey so as time isn't a factor for us, I'm 37 soon, we've been told to go for IVF as soon as possible, but to be eligible for NHS my BMI needs to be below 30. Currently my BMI is 34, I have hypothyroidism which I didn't know was causing my weight gain, I'm getting that under control, it'll probably need
