Disability Allowance - Any Advice Please
Hi everybody. At a recent trip to hospital for my usual check ups a question was posed by one of the medical staff. “Are you getting Disability Allowance”? No I answered! “Well you should have a look at that” they replied “especially if you have had to stop work” So that got me thinking. I am 62, I

Cough After Eating
This is the most recent episode of my mum’s PSP, she barely chokes, now we are dealing with after a meal cough, she coughs few mins after having her meals(different meals). I got her a cough syrup that helps after a while. Has this happened to anyone or experienced this, any solution? Her next appointment

Questions about experience with rinvoq
Have had to stop rinvoq a few times lately due to infections, this last time I stopped rinvoq for ear infection for 5 days. The infection has not cleared up so they're giving me another antibiotic for 10 days. I was just wondering if most people have a flare when stopping rinvoq for that length of

Covid and AF
Apologies if I posted this earlier. Despite countless jabs against covid (I am 79 ) and escaping the virus the past three and a half years I succumbed to the latest variant last Sunday 10th Dec. At first I thought it was just a heavy cold with a cough. Also I was thinking that I was more susceptible

COVID
Doea anyone have any advice. I had my ablation in September and a nurse told me not to have a flu jab or covid booster. I am now stuck at home with Covid. I am a little worried about it triggering AFib.

High Peak Flow but Wheezing and Phlegm x 4+ Months and Intense Fatigue
High Peak Flow but Wheezing and Phlegm x 4+ Months and Intense Fatigue I usually only get asthma as a secondary condition - with hayfever or a chest cold, etc. Since the first week of January, I've had constant fluid on the lungs - now a yellowy brown, which I cough up - but wouldn't say I have a

GCA and respiratory issues?
This can lead to
bacterial
infections
, which leads to the severe cough. Since I never had this before GCA, and since part of my initial symptoms were respiratory, it's possible that my initial onset of GCA contributed to this lung damage.

I had a phone call from the drs receptionist this afternoon to tell me I have hypothyroidism after some blood tests and needed to pick up a prescription which I would need

A little, very quiet, thumbs up 👍
Well, I've been keeping quiet about returning (again!) to C25K but I have just managed Week 4, Run 3 without any problems so I am HOPING I can finally get back on the trotting pony regularly now. After literally a whole year of Covid, colds, sinus and chest infections, PVF/Long Covid, post-Covid cough

PMR and Pfizer Covid Vaccine
Within 5 days of my husband and I receiving the first Pfizer Covid jab, he started getting pains in his legs and shoulders. He took paracetamol & used Bio Freeze, similar to deep heat. He got progressively worse, a GP diagnosed Frozen Shoulder over the phone, prescribed Co-Codamol & Naproxen. Within

Fatigue..again...Moderna jab?
Hello everyone. Reduced to 2.75, working slowly towards 2.5. Back from lovely break in Ireland tracing my roots. Had Moderna jab, aching arm and headache, then, coincidentally, full flu, nose like a tap, cough etc. Altho some neighbours had flu and not the jab. Cold symptoms finally going after 2 weeks
