I have recovered well, but just recently I have become breathless even when just having a conversation, also a feeling of being very clammy a few

I just want to quit GCA!
I have tapered down to a 5mg/4mg alternating dose. Have had some issues with shoulder pain, scotomas and pressure back in temples. Went back up to 5mg which seemed to help.

My body is playing silly B's again but I'm not laughing.
Hi everyone hope you are keeping as well as you can, off for my covid jab this weekend. I've had a whirlwind week and a half after having a funny turn in the supermarket went to GPs who sent me for a chest x-ray and all hell broke loose. X-ray Friday, Monday phone call from GP and from hospital. Tuesday

unsure about diagnosis.
I am 77 and just had spirometry test and been diagnosed with severe COPD. Chest X-ray normal, sputum normal, oxygen 99%., no crackles or wheezing. No breathlessness just morning and evening chesty cough a few times which sometimes means expelling clear phlegm but not always. I have not been prescribed

Tight chest ~ waiting for angiogram
Hi everyone. I went into A&E last weekend with chest tightness and some breathing difficulty, along with some other symptoms. They were brilliant, kept me in for a couple of days, lots of ECGs, a chest X-ray and contrast CT to rule out a PE, which was clear. Long story short, ECG shows some ischemic

Liver test & starting methotrexate.
hi everyone. I'm a bit confused, I had my chest x Ray and blood test ready to start methotrexate, but the nurse called and said my liver result was a bit high and also my immflamation markers were up although my CRP being raised doesn't surprise me in the slightest seeing as I'm still in my initial

jevtana Cough
hi all. Dad just had his 3rd round of jevtana and has developed a cough ( sounds wet) with some increasing irritation in his throat. No fever etc. I know cough can be a side effect but just wondering if others have managed this or is this something more sinister going on? Mets have been limited to bones
