Wife getting MMR vaccine booster - isolate or not?
I'm an SLL patient, 55 years old, now about 2.5 years into remission after 6 FCR treatments. I just recovered from a recent (and thankfully mild) bout of shingles. My shingles was so mild that my GP wasn't convinced it actually was shingles! She had me tested for herpes zoster antibodies, and for good

Inhaler post pneumonia, awaiting lung scarring diagnosis?

Covid and Myelofibrosis
hi I’ve just tested positive for Covid, I have post pv Myelofibrosis. I’m waiting on 111 to see whether I need to have some treatment. What are your thoughts and is this necessary now? I think it’s going to be a long wait, so it might be tomorrow. Thank you Mal

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

Will a COVID (or flu) vaccination affect my blood results?
If I have a blood test 3 or 7 days after a COVID (or flu) vaccination - will it affect my blood results? Should I perhaps make the vaccination after the blood test, so that there is no potential issue interpreting my blood results? If the vaccination affects blood results - how many days after the vaccination

Calcified tendonitis
Has anyone experienced calcified tendinitis? I have been diagnosed with this after 6 months of excruciating shoulder pain. GP kept just prescribing painkillers then I saw the physio who advised me to have an X-ray. I am now having a steroid injection in my shoulder followed by physio, and hopefully this

Sadly Not Just Thyroid Patients
I've been following the infected blood scandal with interest, basically thousands of patients in the 70's, 80's and early 90's were given blood transfusions/ products that were cheaply imported, often from USA, and not screened for Hep C. This was to save the NHS money. Unfortunately many people became

I consider myself fortunate, now in year 12 on BTK inhibitors with low, but adequate blood counts and a reasonably good quality of life that includes travel and a range of physical activities like biking and kayaking. This after Fludarabine/Cytoxan/Rituximab x 5 with only a brief response. Starting

Finally failed at side-stepping the “rona”
Well I guess sooner or later it had to happen. Four years of avoiding covid and now I caught it whilst traveling for work in the Far East. Started with a cold and a general malaise, then a few days later, last night, I had a slight temperature so I thought I’d check (had packed some tests just in

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

Worried About (Possible) Recent Diagnosis of PMR.
Around 3 months ago I became aware of increasing aches and pains in my arms and legs and an overwhelming exhaustion. I’m normally a fit and active 73 year old. My neck felt stiff but I put that down to wear and tear as I also have worn discs in my lower spine which I manage with Pilates. GP sent me

Oxygen levels after pneumonia
I was discharged from hospital one week ago having suffered a bout of pneumonia and a RSV I was treated in isolation. I know it will take weeks to recover, but I’m concerned about my oxygen level which hovers around 87-89. Any advice?
