Is it possible to have a flare up of PMR without a change in predisolone dosage?
I have had PMR for over 2 years & I'm currently on 12mg of Pred. I have seen a Rheumatologist & started Methotrexate on 15th September10mg once a week but I have not started reducing the Pred yet. For the last 4-5 days I have been feeling cold, tired & aching all over & feel like I've got the flu.

DBS for OCD?
Hi - I suffer from OCD, but I am also a physician. I'm looking to interview patients who have gotten DBS for OCD to better understand what the experience is like, and to be able to better describe it to the medical community. If you've gotten DBS for OCD and are willing to talk anonymously about it,

How did we arrive at Disease?
I’ve often wondered how I ended up with Parkinson’s. Well the advent of Cov-vid may have inadvertently shed a light on this question. I began reading anecdotal reports, and articles saying that some people getting the cov-vid shot were experiencing a metallic taste in their mouth immediately following

shingles question
Hi, just wondered how dangerous it would be to if I were to come into contact with someone with shingles? My disabled daughter who lives in supported living has shingles and I’m due to see her soon. I’m now on 6mg prednisone- am I less compromised as it’s a lower dose? Thanks

Tetanus shot?? Any interactions with Imbruvica?
My husband got a tetanus shot because he was cut with something rusty and hadn't had one in at least 10 years. I haven't had one either, but if I do get cut, or otherwise need one, am I able to get it without a reaction because of CLL or Imbruvica???? Googled it but I didn't get any good results.

“How Does Deep Brain Stimulation Change the Course of Parkinson's Disease?”
This very recent (May 2022) review was posted elsewhere (FB) and after reading it myself (it's open access) I thought it worth re-posting here on HU - for those interested in learning more on long-term DBS outcomes. https://movementdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mds.29052?fbclid=IwAR3EaJVE5QUEQ165u7wKsneu2V3JHhs36YuQCiRHxjSrbhUXHTkr31qCafU

shingles vaccination
I thought I posted but something went wrong! I have recurring shingles, had it since age 25. I have it currently. I read the shingles post and see shingrix is best option - I have pmr and on very low dose steroid at 2per day dropping slowly to one per day. (10 per week). I want a private vaccination

Shingles vaccination
I know catching shingles with PMR is a complete no-no, but does anyone know if we are OK having the vaccination? I imagine if we are, it’s a good idea
