Trelegy and pneumonia?
In April this year, I was prescribed Trelegy after an exacerbation that resulted in respiratory failure. I have read that people who are on Trelegy are a lot more likely to get pneumonia but I had the vaccination a couple of years ago so I am a little confused. Does anyone know anything about this?

Helicobacter pylori
Good morning just wondered if you have come across H Pylori I seem to have tested positive for this test. Waiting to hear from GP later today, what questions should I ask? I was assuming not enough stomach acid but now not sure what’s going on with my guts! Look forward to hearing your views

Recovery from pneumonia
70 YO F with bronchiectasis - I developed double pneumonia 3 months ago and completed 2 weeks of IV antibiotic treatment in hospital and at home 2 months ago. Is it normal for recovery from pneumonia to wax and wane, to be "nonlinear"? I was getting better 2 weeks ago, the fatigue was starting to lift

My story
Hi, it all started by going into hospital for day surgery for Hemorrhoids. Within 36 hours my wife had taken me back to A & E with a high heart rate and low blood pressure. I was also in a lot of pain, which I put down to the surgery for Hemorrhoids. I was soon in majors and within a few hours I was

6 month old chronic cough
My 6 month old baby has had a cough on and off for the last 4 months . Back to the gp various times and three courses of antibiotics yet this still has not fully gone! Been referred to pediatrics and gp said this may be the start of asthma but hard to diagnose due to his age. I’m really getting anxious

Is it safe to renew my tetanus injection with being on 8mg Pred?
My tetanus injection needs to be topped up. I have an allotment in London which used to be part of a railway embankment and wondered if it is wise to take the injection or to wait till I have tapered down to under 5 mg? The same goes for the Hepatitis which is due? Any advice would be appreciated

Hyberbaric Oxygen Therapy
I have a friend who contracted Lyme disease and recently underwent a series of hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions. The treatment has completely transformed him and he is now his old self. I have read that this therapy helps Fibromyalgia and other autoimmune diseases and was wondering if anyone knew

Voice volume issues post ICU
Hello! I was in ICU in February. I thought I just had a bad cough… I’d lost my voice and thrown up and felt shocking and my GP told me it was viral and to take aspirin. Two days later, I was blue-lighted to hospital with Flu, severe pneumonia, strep A and sepsis. I went into septic shock and was put

Does asthma severity tend to reflect that of sinuses?
I wasn’t sure where to post this but please tell me if it’s out of place as I’l move it. Basically I’ve had chronic sinusitis with polyps for over a decade. It is more chronic inflammation that’s the issue, with meds the polyps are only small/secondary to the inflammation. I don’t have asthma but

Tetanus
Not too far back there was a discussion about having a Tetanus shot, might help PD. I tried a search and came up with only one 2 year old post. No very Techy. Can someone help me find the link to that discussion? Thank you

pneumonia vaccination
I have been told to get my pneumonia jab , i’m not worried about sore arm, but i’m just a bit concerned i might feel poorly after. I didn’t feel poorly after my flu jab or covid booster. Any reassurance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Infections like pneumonia and sinus. Lessons learned.
I’m saddened and sorry for all those who have been suffering from pneumonia and respiratory infections. Been posted of late. As a physician who knows better, I wish I’d followed my on advice to do ALL of the following 1. Test right away for COVID 2. Get a complete viral nasal swab to be tested

Pneumonia and collapsed lung after catching the ‘100 day cough’
For all you folks who have Lupus, please be careful of this ‘100’ day cough that is going around at the moment, as this is what caused me to end up in hospital. I was diagnosed with Lupus in February 2022. I’ve had a rough ride for the past few years, ending up in hospital every year for one thing

Nasal / Sinus problems and Bad Smell?
I just wanted to ask about this, as had pain in the nose/cold only on the right side, (which has since gone) all round the eyes, and top of the nose, which I am guessing is Sinusitis? The odd thing is, is that all I can smell is what can only be described as 'cow sh*t' whenever I blow my nose, or sometimes

ICU survivor 7 months later
Hi, Just to introduce myself to this fabulous group, I am a survivor of ICU from January this year. I attended an outpatient appointment expecting to have dressings applied to my foot and possibly having a cast within 24 hours I was on the operating table having a life-saving operation. Unbeknown to
