Decision made re shingles jab
Hi again. After reading all your helpful comments and having thought about it for days, I have just cancelled my shingles jab. On balance this is not the time to introduce further risks. Thanks everyone.

2019: Will Medicare Cover Parkinson's ?
Here's where we stand as noted by Kirk Hall in his blog www.shakypawsgrampa.com. (Of course who knows what will happen over the next two years with the idiot in the Whitehouse backed by gutless members of the POT). Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a challenging condition as it is, but the fact that it is

DBS hybrid: Medtronic leads with Boston Scientific stimulator
I have had effective control of my motor complaints of dystonia and dyskinesia for 4 years with the standard Medtronic unit implanted in my globus pallidus internus. The battery life has been limited due to the high output of 2.7 &4.8. I managed to get 30 months out of the initial battery but at current

Are you still looking for help?
If you are wondering why you still can't get a diagnosis this may help you. Toxic Mold and Lyme Disease often go hand in hand and cause symptoms in all sorts of ways including those associated with thyroid problems. This may give you a few clues: https://toxicmoldproject.com/?idev_id=22&idev_username

Anyone with symptoms like mine?
It started with high fever, a recurring headache and red welts across my chest. I hate being ill - and hospitals - so begrudgingly went to the local hospital with my wife only to be told I had shingles and should be put in a ward immediately. However, that hospital did not a full-time skin doctor

Shingles vaccine
My GP is recommending I get the shingles vaccine. I thought I had read that PMR (which I have) can be a side effect of the vaccine. I am asking what you think.

Flying after suffering a brain abscess
I suffered a left temporal brain abscess about 18 months ago. I've had set backs with my recovering but now feel fit enough to go on holiday. We've booked and will be going in a few days but it's a 5 hour flight and I'm worried about how it might effect me. Has anyone got any advise for me?
