Eyes as dry as..
Still suffering with my dry eyes, and waiting to get an appointment at the eye hospital. My left eye has been very bad over the weekend, feels like something up under the lid. Using the latest drops have just made it worse. Bought a heated eye mask which didn't help at all. This morning I have gone

Hi Guys, Some of you might have seen my other posts - if not then a quick recap: December my father becomes very ill, large tense ascites, Hepatic Encapathology and pre-existing cirrhosis. He quit drinking about 2 years ago. He was admitted to hospital (in December) and was suffering from AKI (Acute

PCD Management Advice
I have 2 children. A girl who just turned 5 and an 18 month old boy with suspected PCD. The consultant is treating them as such. We are trying to get to HSC funding to go to the UK to get tested - living in cork, Ireland. They did the test with the nose brushing on the 2 of them and it came back inconclusive

Atypical Asthma in Hospital
Hi all, I was admitted to my local hospital on Weds night with the worst attack of my life so far. This was my first time at this hospital having moved to the area only recently; other hospitals have previously sent me home even when I was in distress, because I don't present normally; 1) My pulse ox

HA is ruining my life.
Hello, My name is Christian, I'm 15 about to turn 16 and I'm worried I'm going to have to be rushed to the hospital with seizures,coma, or or problems. My worry is N Floweri. I don't really know how to spell it but basically it is a brain eating amoeba that gains access to the brain through the nose.

New year, same lungs
Well this is a good start to the year(!) Luckily I'm not incapacitated, but just as I was about to drop to 5mg pred/day and then off, I started up with a chest infection. I bargained with the OOH doc but he wasn't comfortable prescribing me Flix on top of my (already maximum dose) Seretide as that is

Advice Needed - Test result. IgE 1142, precipitin positive, other severe illnesses, no treatment?
Hello, Apologies in advance for the length of this post! As per my title, I would greatly appreciate some informed advice regarding a test result. Read extensively on aspergillus and my other medical conditions, but what I have read seems to contradict with the advice I am receiving from my GP + respiratory

News puts son in a panic!
He is still in hospital being treated for an infection, which has now moved onto his chest it got to the stage that he is on O2 but they wanted a bronchoscopy as the CT scan showed the infection had spread on his lungs. They also did a wash and took samples from his lungs. It seems that they are treating

Home, but it's hard..
After 11 days in the hospital, with 2 life-threatening attacks and an allergic reaction in that time, I was discharged yesterday.

Comments on updated results and progress please
Some months ago I shared my blood tests and also talked about my generalised anxiety. https://healthunlocked.com/thyroiduk/posts/132400326/help-interpreting-results Several weeks ago I had another blood test, and I’m posting my new results next to the old ones: TSH [0.34 - 5.6] 21.61 mlU/L ===
