Measles outbreak
Hi, not sure if I'm being silly so looking for abit of reassurance. I'm on rituximab, azathioprine and prednisolone. I'm up-to-date with vaccinations bit concerned about the measles outbreak in my area. Am I at risk due to being immunocompromised?

The Plot Thickens…
I posted a few days ago about shoulder pain. It has got worse and is in both shoulders and is affecting my neck. It is far worse in the morning. My Osteopath gave me a private doctor’s contact details so I could see them for a cortisone injection. I had the appointment this morning and it turned out

Free Covid tests for vulnerable
Does anyone know how we get free covid tests now that the government has stopped its postal service? I have looked on the NHS sites and there is no clear information. I also went to my local pharmacy and they had no idea about free tests.

unknown face rash
They did a skin culture on him for
bacterial
and fungal
infections
and it came back normal. All of the doctors we saw seem to think that it’s viral. But we did a herpes culture on his mouth which came back negative.

6 month old baby Covid
Hi all, unfortunately I tested positive for Covid on Christmas Eve, and today my baby 6 months old has also tested positive. He’s got a slight temperature 37.7 and just sleeping on our laps constantly, he’s having little bits of milk here and there but just sleeping mainly. I’m worried - any advice?

My Christmas
I did not attend the family gathering unfortunately since I have anxiety inside indoor spaces with groups of people, and we have COVID and flu going around. My concern with COVID is that some people get long term symptoms like chronic fatigue, loss of smell or taste, and a few others. So it just still

Tonsil Stones from IVF Treatment - Anyone Else?
I began my first cycle of IVF back in the summer of 2020. Whilst in treatment and injecting Gonal F, I started having tonsil stones. These are debris that builds up and sit in your tonsils causing some discomfort. I ended up doing 4 rounds of IVF so obviously the drugs/hormones messed up my body somewhat

Covid update
I had a call back after 2.5 days from the covid medication delivery unit. They asked me to go to the local hospital to get an infusion of sotrovimab. The tablets form interacts with some of my medication so this one was chosen. I will let you know how I do on it.

Periods delayed after steroid injections
Hi,Has anyone had the experience of their periods being delayed after having steroid injections. If so, for how long? I'm a week late. They haven't been this late in a long while. I have an IVF consultation next month so I'm worried they won't return Thanks

Pain management Team
I have been waiting for 4 years to see someone in the pain management clinic at our local hospital. What a complete joke. When are the doctors and so called specialists going to help a patient who is in considerable pain and saying to him I want to cut my foot off. He was a complete waste of time, why
