My father's dry amd has recently progressed to wet and we have been advised to get an
Anti
VEGF
injection. He has advanced glaucoma as well and this is his only working eye (left). The other eye is already affected by glaucoma (90-95%).

CHANGE OF BIOLOGIC TREATMENT
Hello, I have had Rheumatoid arthritis since my late 30s (77 now). I had several biologic treatments , some of which did not really control the RA well… The best biologic was Enbrel (Etanercept) weekly injections. It gave me my life back for 14 years until I had my second knee replacement operation

At my wits end
After suffering with stomach issues for an absolutely years (getting progressively worse each year) I was eventually given a test from the GP, the stool sample flagged something so was sent off to gastro.

ITP, Need your help
In May 2016, some purpura and Petechia was observed in my legs, to know about it I did CBC. CBC report showed that Platelets of my blood had reached about 47,000 and by passage of 20 days it decreased and reached to 10,000. Beside this I had heavy bleeding and Epistaxis along with purpura. I stated

Flare? Or has biologic stopped working?
I am on COSENTYX and MTX and had been doing ok. The consultant said I needed to start Alendronic acid as my bone density borderline. Within a few weeks my arthritis symptoms started to flare. I had a depo injection, but little or no effect. I have been taking celecoxib which wasn't doing enough so now

Reprise for Leflunomide
I am trying leflunomide again after a gap of about 9 years and lots of cancer treatment in between. Last time I got pulled off it by an officious CNS because of my spiky blood pressure. So this time I am ready for that but hoping that it will be otherwise side effect free…as before. i loved it when

Low AMH Advice
Hi everyone, It’s taken me a while to pluck up the courage to post this but here we go… We had a round of IVF in January, but unfortunately the embryo didn’t implant so it didn’t work. As I only had two eggs retrieved (one transferred and the other couldn’t be frozen!) under NHS Scotland we don’t

high amh levels
I’ve been told my AMH levels are 67.1, way out of the normal range. Have PCOS and thin lining which is likely due to high AMH. I have a cycle of 33-35 days but light periods. Having a hycosy this week. Is ovulation induction unlikely to be an option? Thanks

Does NSAIDS reduce ADT effectiveness?
Hello I have a question about taking NSAIDS while on ADT - up to now I have only used tylenol - I had read somewhere that NSAIDS subtract some effectiveness of the hormone therapy and I have avoided it - but with the amount of inflammation after 8 months, I would like to use some - primarily to let

Healthy eating vs BMI
I've recently started IVF and was advised I have quite low AMH. Because of this I have tried to eat healthy to improve my egg quality. The downside to this is I have been losing weight which has brought me below the recommended BMI for IVF and I was almost refused treatment. Now I'm not sure what is

Loosing hope
Hi everyone - sorry, this is a long one! Grab a brew… Our first IVF round failed in February and we didn’t get any in the freezer. My OH’s semen analysis was really positive, so the focus has been on me with my low AMH levels, previous ovarian surgery and age (38). We only got 2 eggs, both fertilised
