Shingles following AF
hi folks - seen a few posts recently about shingles and wondered about my own experience and if anyone had the same. I had an episode of AF in February which lasted 5.5hrs HR up to 182, next day a rash appeared on my collarbone and it turned out to be shingles. Cardiologist said it’s quite possible that

Shingles
I posted over 9 weeks ago about my shingles outbreak. I still have horrible pain and can't stand clothing even to touch me. I have had 2 epidurals for the pain and they didn't even help at all. Someone wrote back and said that they had shingles since last December and I couldn't find the post. If you

Next instalment. I thought I`d better do this now before I start working.
In fact, I don't remember ever seeing my dad drunk, except for one occasion when he had had, perhaps, an excess of drink. We were on a family holiday in Ireland, in a horse drawn caravan, which in itself was an experience, especially for the horse as we had no prior experience whatsoever of the care

Hi , I have just recently started on the pegasys weekly injections . I am travelling to Greece and wonder if anyone can recomend the best way to keep the medication at the correct temperature whilst flying and travelling. Is there a chargeable medication box which I could charge using a battery pack

Interferon and the liver
question to all my MPN people on here who are taking pegasys or besremi, how do you manage elevated liver enzymes? Do they cycle up and down? Is there anything we can do to bring them down? What is acceptable to y’all? My hematologist says not to worry until they hit 2-300.. My blood numbers actually

benign paroxysmal positional vertigo
I suffer with this occasionally. I take methotrexate and hydroxychloroquine. Is this a drug side effect and does anyone else suffer? Thanks.

CGA and urogram
Hi All good advisers. Have been on pred for CGA since July 2023, starting at 60mg. now at 12 mg with very slow taper. I am having a kidney urogram this April. I am also on metformin 3 x daily 500 mg. I have read that I should stop taking metformin before this procedure. How many days before should

Leukocytes, protein and blood.
Hi all, my urine samples have started showing leukocytes protein and blood. I have GPA which mainly affects my lungs and now sinuses. I guess I just want to know if having these in my urine with no actual urine infection could mean that there's possibly now kidney involvement too?. Hope you're all keeping

A Tale of Four Teeth …. and Apixaban.
Earlier this year, I posted my concerns regarding a forthcoming procedure where I had been informed that the dentist would remove four teeth and fit a cosmetic denture at the same time. All of the teeth were upper situated - one right in the front (which was a leaking abscess) and three, all close together
