Covid day four....U.K
Hi all. This sounds so stupid but I thought it was a regular cold. Just did a COVID test and it's positive. I think it maybe too late to access antivirals now? What should I do? Sorry, just a bit panicked. Thank you in advance.

Anyone find cold plunge or sauna helpful?
I'm six weeks in on ADT. Working to stay ahead of fatigue with resistance training and weighted vest walking as I gear up for radiation and chemo in the next few months. Anyone done any cold plunge or sauna to help battle side effects or get better sleep? What was your experience?

Hi there , I am very new to this and I struggle at the moment as I’m falling apart. The whole of December I been basically bedridden and was wondering if you could give me some advice for when I see my doctor. I have an appointment on the 8th and I really want to understand what he is going to discuss

Thrush but not a bird
I have been given the wrong dose of my inhaler for Asthma. Now have to use two puffs instead of one to obtain the same amount. Will this increase my sore throat and oral thrush burden ? It is something I struggle with. Nothing to be done until Monday. Any advice would be welcome.

Anyone here with cervical arthritis?
I recently found out that the pains I've been having in my neck, shoulders and arms is arthritis. Specifically c4-c5, c6-c7. I don't want ibuprofen, Tylenol isn't working and I'm allergic to sulfa drugs; I'm kinda concerned about all the drugs, but need something to help so I can continue to work. I

Trimbow inhaler
I have read a few people having symptoms of a soar mouth, bleeding and thrush etc from this inhaler or steroid inhalers and wanted to share a tip I had . Use a spacer , never suck in hard as the medicine will hit the back of your throat and not go down your windpipe to your lungs , take the second inhalation

Influenza A while on W & W,-- the price for not wanting a vaccine
I decided to put my pride and lack of articulate writing skills aside to share a my learning experience . It was in Jan of 23 when I was told over the phone of my CLL Dx. I walked around in a panicky daze. First I went to Mr Google. (BIG MISTAKE !) I started clearing out the house and giving things

today/tonight
this afternoon I am going to the casino to hang out with some friends from college. We’re going to shop at the outlets before checking into our air bnb and getting ready for the evening. Our plan is to gamble a bit and go to a nightclub after. Because of my anxiety I already plan on not drinking. But

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.
