Moderna Vaccine Dose 2 Update

Three days ago I wrote a response to JustaSheet1 about my experience with the second dose of the Moderna vaccine....to make a long story short, the arm where I received the injection swelled to about 3x's its normal size, was hard as a rock, itchy and very hot....to make matters worse, my left underarm

Loosening mucus

I'm new here. I'm really struggling with thick stringy mucus. I already take Carbocisteine 375 mg and have a saline nasal spray. I know there are machines (not nebuliser's) you can buy that loosen mucus. I don't have a lot of money but I think I need one that works. Can anyone recommend one please?

benefits of nebuliser

Hi, a recent CT scan and bronchoscopy showed some sputum plugging in the right middle lobe. It's called "right middle lobe syndrome" according to the bronchiestasis consultant and apparently is commonly seen in people with bronchiestasis. It is not of concern clinically but the consultant suggested

Saline sonogram day 16

Has anyone had a saline sonogram this late in the cycle? I phoned to make an appointment and this was the first available. Going to ask my consultant today, but I'm concerned that I'm paying £400 for a pointless test!

Ocaliva

I was diagnosed with stage 1 PBC in 2016. Initially responded to Urso but it did stop being effective. I had another liver biopsy this past November and currently at stage 2 PBC. I am now on Ocaliva. I did not want to take this drug prefer a safer drug that has been around longer. Anyone else on

Home Nebs 🫁 - they may help improve QoL in severe asthmatics, but are they safe?! Everything you need to know!

Hi everyone. Another infomercial for you all! Hopefully this will be relatively short (but you know me... they never are 😅), and it’ll definitely shorten my next post (add-ons from consultants)! So here we go... Home nebs are almost always frowned upon by consultants (and definitely disapproved of by

Members using b12 powder, vial, insulin needle?

i'd like to hear from members getting b12 powder, dissolving in saline, and drawing on that vial multiple times. i think the system also uses diabetic needles since the volume is much lower than 1cc. perniciousanemia.org and oxfordbiosciences are 2 sites that sell like this. this seems to me a simpler

Humidifiers....?

Hi all. After trying nebulised saline & deciding that’s probably not for me, i thought I’d look into a humidifier again for use at night. Just to add a little moisture to the air as the general humidity seems to have dropped dramatically. Does anyone use them or know of a good brand? Thanks everyone

Saline drops

Hi everyone, my baby is 1month old and I just noticed a little cold and noisy breathing mostly in the night. Has a little nasal congestion too. I called 111 and was advised to give him saline drops. I just wanted to confirm once more if its safe . Any feedback from mums who have used it would be great

Effects on FEV1 after use of inhaled saline

I’ve had a 5% drop in my FEV1 from 28% to 23%. I have fairly recently been using inhaled saline twice a day to help with clearance. I just had a quick “google”...(dangerous I know😱) but it appears the use of inhaled saline could have a derogatory effect on FEV1. Any thoughts? If so, any alternatives
