Any advice last week I developed shortness of breath which lead me to Amu unit. All stats were normal, ECG was clear, chest x Ray clear, Doctor said I didn't have covid lung, bloods taken, all fine except raised d dimer (blood clot) of 538. Had ultrasound scan on left leg no clot found. Doctor said probably

Montelukast?
Hi, I posted on her a while back, my asthma symptoms had come back after having none for around 15/20 years, in the last month they have had me on two different preventers both made my symptoms worse so I stopped them. I’ve had a chest x-ray & ECG and all normal so I’m now to start Montelukast, has anyone

Methotrexate
Hi everyone. I wanted to ask if anyone who has GCA and where tapering pred has not worked, has been put on Methotrexate? I am about to go onto 7.5 mgs weekly with my 40 mgs of pred. I have read the side effects of this steroid sparing drug and just wanted to hear other’s experiences on Methotrexate.

Unsure about specialist
I had a telephone consultation 1 week ago with my CLL doctor regarding my recent blood tests. I have only previously seen her twice face to face. I was diagnosed 8th Jan this year stage A watch and wait. She said there had been no real change and she would send the results to me plus forms for next blood

Some progress, I think... ? 🤔 But having wobbles, struggling on lockdown now 🙄
Evening all, Thank you to everyone who kindly responded to my last post. A ittle update... Spoke with my GP surgery as I was feeling a little run down and struggling to sleep which was having such a negative impact on me. I thought it possibly was side effects of medication so I was changed onto something

Feeling awful update
Well my Rheumatologist called and let me know that he wanted me to go ahead increase my imuran to 100mg a day. Also he wants me to get a PFT as soon as they open up elective testing for the shortness of breath. Since I’m not sick and have no fever it’s not emergent. I am going also for a chest X-ray

Is this the end
So Mike has had this cancer for a little over 3 years. His last PSA had doubled from 12 to 24 in one month. He has small cell so this isn’t a great indicator. They did 1 cycle of yervoy/ nivo on March 9th. The last week he’s had a terrible cough, can’t clear his chest and has started to need a walker
