Massive leap in heart rate following Covid vaccination - a coincidence?
I'm 80, diagnosed with persistent AF in 2020, and have lived carefully and happily with few symptoms. The excellent Bristol Heart Institute has organised two echos, an MRI and an angiogram showing, to my satisfaction, acceptable results. My heart rate is always low ranging from 30 to 55 beats per

Steroid injection and surgery
Hi all , I'm just wondering if anyone knows how long you have to wait after steroid injection in the bottom before having gallbladder removal I've been told operation will be in 2 to 3 mths unless a cancellation comes in. But a friend said I'll have to wait 3mths now

Puzzled
I went for a Rheumatology appointment yesterday as I’d had to stop Etanercept for the 2nd time due to tonsillitis, itchy rash sore eyes, blurred vision etc. I saw a nurse practitioner who said I didn’t need a steroid injection and because and I have another appointment with my new Consultant in November

Pain and stiffness in hand after covid booster
I was diagnosed back in 2020. Took a few months but the methotrexate kicked in and I greatly improved. Yet now I am getting pain and stiffness in one hand. I had the covid booster the other week and it made me feel rotten for days after. I do wonder if there is a link. Has anyone else experienced this

My husband who has PSP has Covid now (for the first time). He is in our community hospital for IV fluids and antibiotics. They said Covid medication is arriving today. Recently he has had bad reactions to new medications tried and I’m concerned about these. Have any PSP people had medication for Covid

Appointment Update
Hello. Following my recent post about my dry eyes, I had my follow-up appointment on Monday nearly 4 months post right trabeculectomy & it did not go well. Had a visual field test and eye scan. No change to my right eye but my left eye continues to lose peripheral vision. The pressure was elevated even

IBS/Covid/Stress - Help!
Hi, I've just come across this forum and I'm hoping that you kind folks can give me a virtual hug and some kind words. To sum it up as briefly as possible, I am 48 and have had IBS for 28 years. Its always there in the background but I used to get serious flare ups that lasted for months if there was

Covid spring booster
Wanted to thank all of you who replied to my earlier post about the covid spring booster,much appreciated and after a lot of thought about pros and cons , I paid for the phizer vaccine (obviously I would rather have not) so fingers crossed. I have had some technical difficulty in replying before.still

Update on Covid/AF
Hi all, Last week I reported that despite my daily dose of medication (60mg x 2 Diltiazem) I was consistently going in and out of AF due to COVID. I increased my Diltiazem by 60mg as (PIP) to try and eliminate/reduce the episodes. However, I found despite helping, this was exacerbating my AF - episodes

COVID vaccine May 2024
I had my latest covid vaccine on Saturday and it’s now Monday and my side effects as usual are horrible. Vomiting, thumping headache, stomach pain. The lymph node on the side of my neck is swollen much more than normal. I wondered is it just me?

Selegiline side effects
Hi All. Due to drug shortages we've been unable to get rasagiline and had to swap to selegiline. Since the swap mum has had lots of unusual bleeding and the GP thinks it may be a side effect of the selegiline. Just wondered if anyone else has had similar problems and if so how did you resolve things?

flare and a cold - what do I do?
hello all. In year 4 of PMR which started April 2020 , had just got down to 3mg in April 2022 and then got COVID. I didn’t know about sick day rules (or this Forum) then so everything went haywire. I went back up to 8mg instinctively (no rheumatologist and no guidance from GPs I saw) then after that
