Hyperinflated lungs
Hi everyone, new here, I'm in the UK. I recently had a chest x ray and was very surprised to here the results I am asthmatic, I do smoke but have managed to cut fine to 6 roll ups a day, I had done this before my chest x ray. Saw the Dr 2 weeks after the x ray and he just said my lungs are hyper inflated

Recurring chest infections and phlegmy cough
Hi, I have had asthma since I was a teenager and excema all my life. I am 57 years old. For most of my life, I have managed my asthma well. I was very sporty in my youth playing squash, badminton and tennis. I could go for very long walks with my dogs up until about 18mths ago. So I have always regarded

Any tips for Natural Modified FET (boost lining)?
Hi everyone, I have a persistent thinnish lining (around 6 to 7mm) after an episode of abnormal bleeding between periods (turned out to be silent endo and a polyp that did not show up on ultrasound). Before that, 11mm was my average. After failing a recent FET, my doctor decided to monitor my lining

Supporting Egg Quality
Hello All,We went through our first cycle of IVF in Jan and we are planning our next round in July. The first round we went in very naively and rather blind in terms of body/mind preparation. I have tried to guide myself as much as I can but I wondered what you could add to what I am doing. I am on

Pneumonia
Hi. I had my follow up chest x-ray for pneumonia 3 weeks ago and the good news is that it's come back clear. I'm really pleased but I'm still coughing at night and feel a bit breathless in the mornings. I told the doctor when he rang me with the results and he said, the infection has gone but lungs take

Polymyalgia and Rheumatoid arthritis
I was diagnosed with PMR in June 2014. Over a period of about 7 years I managed to come off prednisone but after a time the PMR returned. Since 2022 I have managed to get down to 7mg daily and then have a flare. Back to 10 down to 8 and another flare. I live in France and it seems PMR is not as common

High B12 - more tests needed?
My SO has several anaemia symptoms - pallor, breathlessness, fatigue, dizziness, nausea etc. GP says the bloodwork is OK despite family history of PA. Blood tests (GP & Medichecks) so far show haemoglobin & MCH a bit below range, haematocrit & MCH low but in range. Serum B12 is consistently high (latest

Folic Acid does not cause PA
I saw this article with responses about the consumption of folic acid. What do people think about the responses? Especially the one who says that there shouldn't be a limit to the amount of folic acid taken. https://www.bmj.com/content/329/7479/1376/rapid-responses I have been taking 5mg folic acid

Bit old fashioned...
I discovered that a castor oil pack really helps with knee pain. It's horrible sticky oil, but it works topically (for me at least). I have bad memories of this stuff from my childhood. Any hint of sickness and out came the bottle. I would not recommend injesting it! š¤® it's better than the deep heat

Good PMR specialist in Bristol/WestonSM?
GP diagnosed me with PMR in May 2022. I had difficulties reducing below 18mg so she referred me to a consultant at Bristol Royal Infirmary. He is very kind and sympathetic but refuses to confirm the diagnosis of PMR. He says I am too young - Iām 56 - and heās run every test in the book on me (MRI, PET

positive then negative intrinsic factor
hi guys, I had a positive intrinsic factor blood test back in April and this was before any b-12 injections. Since then, the doctors have wanted to do two other intrinsic factor blood tests and both came back negative and the doctors are confused why is this? Thanks, Ella (:
