Colds, colds and colds again
For some reason the last 3 months have been punctuated by some kind of bug or another. I've had a host of colds and bugs, either typical "common cold" or stomach bugs. I seem to get one, it'll hang around for a week or so, then I'll have a clear week (2 if I'm lucky) then I get something else. Had thought

Hi all, I have COPD which I believe in early stages though of late getting worse as I have had one virus after another
the first one was a very bad bout of Sinusitis which also ended with a cough so had some antibiotics which appeared to clear things up a lot then wham, within a few days went down with another virus this one very nasty as it has given me conjunctivitis for starters which the doctor said is viral, bad

Can running cause or worsen colds?
Twice recently I have come down with cold symptoms after a longer or harder than usual run. I've barely got over the one I had a couple of week ago, now I seem to have another one. Yesterday I hammered the Stamina" podcast and had a sore throat with a few hours....I got one within 5 hours of doing my

GCA - Coughs, colds and flu
Coughs, colds and flu have really taken their toll this winter. Started on 60mg for GCA (positive biopsy) down to 7mg by mid November after 18 months and feeling fine, but since then have had two bouts of flu and at least 4 nasty cough / colds. Seem to be picking up everything going. Can't face the idea

Common colds & brain function
I notice that when I`m coming down with a cold, I seem to get clumsier & more forgetful. this has me worrying about whether colds have a role in the development of dementia, or is it just all part of having thyroid problems?

Season of colds
I've just had my first dose of cimzia this week and I felt a lot better, though it's wearing off now. Everyone around me is spluttering and sneezing and I'm afraid I'm going to catch their colds. Pd off about it. Do those of you who regularly take cimzia stop it if you've a cold? It's like getting a

Frequent colds
Iv`e noticed that I catch cold after cold in the wintertime since my thyroid bailed out on me. I know that this is probably down to a lower than normal body temperature despite taking Levothiroxine. Is there anything that i can do to boost my resistance?

Op with a cold??
Hi all, I'm due to have surgery on Thursday, and think I have a cold starting! Children went back to school last week and both have colds and I think have passed it on to me. Will it stop me having surgery? No cough just bit of sore throat and runny nose, thanks in advance for advice!

Trouble with Sinemet dosing
So I decided to take my dose 150 mg Prolopa (same as Sinemet) at 2pm, 4 pm and 7 pm with added
comtan
to each dose. This seemed to work fine for several months, I would have the odd meltdown when I forgot to take meds. The meds effect my voice and speech (slurry).

I got a cold and lap on Tuesday
Hi I got a cold after coming back from pre-assessment on last Tuesday (12/8) and I am booked my lap next Tuesday (19/8). My cold is not so bad, no temperature not much coughing or sore throat. Just occasional blocked nose and tiredness. At the beginning I thought my hay fever got worse but by Wednesday

Recognizing the Progression of Parkinson's Disease Symptoms
When the effectiveness of Sinemet or Parcopa begins to wear off (its effects will last for increasingly shorter periods of time as the disease progresses), you will need to increase the amount of medication, or add another medication called a COMT inhibitor [
