Anti VEGF injections
I am having injections into my right eye every 4 weeks. My next appointment came yesterday and is actually 6 weeks since the last injection. Will 6 weeks be okay or should I try to change it? Many thanks for your advice Jane

Anti VEGF help
Hi there, I wonder if anyone else has had lasting side affects after
anti
VEGF
? During the first injections, I had a feeling of pressure in my right eye but no pain. In my left eye it hurt quite a bit. I was left with blood in the eye for around 5 days, as well as a headache for about a week.

Humira /Benepali
Humira has stopped working for me and I have been told I will be starting Benepali another Anti-TNF drug. I am trying to be positive that it will work but I have lung cancer and polycythaemia, (blood cancer) which is a contra-indication to Anti-TNF. Also, I already suffer some of the side effects i.e

NSAIDs
There's a lot out there about the potential benefits of NSAIDs in PC, both for prevention and as part of treatment. In regard to adding them to an anti-inflammatory diet/supplement regime, some suggest a single LD-aspirin a day, some a 200-400 celebrex a day, and some suggest both (or neither). Very

Has anyone read ‘It Starts with the Egg’ and implemented the advice?
Morning all, I’m just coming to term with my failed cycle and would love some advice. Our recent fresh round failed yesterday. We had a low quality Blastocyst (3BC) and a morula transfered on day 5 so I wasn’t terribly surprised I tested negative but I still felt crushed, I guess I was holding onto

IVF Donor Mum
Hi, I am new here and I am almost a week into nafarelin as part of my IVF treatment, after which i'll also be on Gonal F, to have a donor child. I am 39 years old who separated from my partner last year, with low AMH levels and trying for a child on my own. It's been a very overwhelming journey to this
