stomach acid
I don't understand this stomach acid 'thing'. I take a proton pump inhibitor for high stomach acid but people insist that as you get older you're stomach acid reduce. I'm 79. Also that doctors erroneously mistake low stomach acid for high!! What is going on? Any thoughts

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

Post covid asthma diagnoses
Hi there, I’d really like to hear from anyone who has been diagnosed with asthma after getting covid, or anyone with any thoughts! I got covid in feb 22 and since then have had several episodes of severe chest infections which always require antibiotics and steroids. I’ve check my inhaler technique

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

Everlasting Cold
I am on day 20 of this cold that just doesn’t seem to go away. Not Covid, grateful for that but the amount of mucus I produce is never ending. Not running a fever but just tired of the congestion and coughing. Is there any use in seeing my doctor considering I am probably just dealing with an ordinary

Thrush 3 days before FET
Hi everyone, I am booked for a natural FET on Monday (I didn't take anything this cycle, not even progesterone) and the Friday before I discovered that my discharge looked like cottage cheese and I may be getting thrush. Which I haven't had in years! Has this happened to anyone else before their FET

upping steroids short term to boost recovery?
writing on behalf of my mum who is getting over a respiratory tract infection (or not getting over it to be precise). She has long PMR (getting on 40 yr) and is constantly trying to reduce pred. I recall reading in this forum a recommendation to temporarily increase dose when ill / having surgery etc

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.

Cold weather trigger?
Does anyone else find that getting cold or being out in cold weather / air can cause problems?Cold air in the throat while out power walking, or simply realising I'm cold - it happened today - can combine to make me realise I'm going to become tachy and need warmth and to sit down (get a pip Bisoprolol

chest infection
I am currently tapering from 30mg to 25mg prednisolone for GCA. (been taking pred since February). I have had a productive cough and what I believe is a chest infection for 2 weeks. It is definitely better this week than last week and the guaifenesin I have taken has helped. I do not feel unwell
