Medical Perspective on COVID-19 from Seattle
I am posting this from the consideration that information is empowering, and in this case is full of caution. It is from a physician deeply involved in the fight to care for Seattle COVID patients. It is not a controlled study and has no statistics. Rather a first-person perspective on how this is unfolding

Unexplained rash after 2week flolan infusion
I had a 2weeks treatment of flolan infusion which ended on friday. I noticed a small pimple on my left jaw line on thurday and noticed another one on my chick on friday after my last infusion. I felt it might just be stress after the last treatment. But Saturday every thing was ok when I just decided

Annoying experience in nhs
I just got home from an admission. I had a flolan infusion which i stay for 5nights. This is not the 1st time am going into hospital for this infusion so am a regular in this ward. This last infusion was horrible, the way flolan is administered the infusions is very continous. When one tube is finished

Iloprost
Hi reading your story about Iloprost Im from N.I. & couldn't tolerate Iloprost so I get Flolan infusion instead I get it for 6 hours for 5 days & it is much easier to tolerate. I now get it every 3 months for my Raynauds & Scleroderma.

I can wake up in the middle of the night and can't go back to sleep becos of the twisting and turning. At first I thought that I could manage

Illprost
First week our the way. Had illprost aka flolan which opens up the blood vessels. Wait and see what the next few weeks are like, if there is any improvement on these dreaded ulcers on my feet. Just started taking daily injections to prevent blood clots......something else to add to the list of meds lol

Iv Flolan
Hi guys I am gong into hospital next week to have to have flolan. This will be done by IV and will have to have it every day for a week. This is another attempt to try and heal these ulcers on my ankles. I feel like an experiment sometimes. Will keep you posted. Treatment starts Monday.

Treatment for ulcers
Hi I had rituximab which has not worked unfortunately. My consultant is suggesting I try aavaa which is a combination of asprin, antibiotics, flolan and someother stuff! As anyone tried this? I have tried every dressing imaginable. Using iodoflex at the moment. Keeps ulcers clean anyhow.
