Molnupiravir interactions with flecainide/tambocor
Hello everyone, On 9/24/23 i tested positive for covid for the first time. I discovered that Paxlovid is contraindicated for people taking flecainide. (I take 100mg, twice a day. ) My pharmacist noted that Molnupiravir (Lagevrio) was used as an alternative to Paxlovid for people in my situation. I

Respite in South Bucks
HiI am new to this site. My lovely mum who is 78 lives with me after my healthy father passed away with covid in 2020. She was diagnosed with Parkinsons after a hip op severely damaged a nerve causing a drop foot. The neurologist just suggested she had it. So in 2019 I think she started these meds.

Not had a very good Christmas
Christmas day I came down with this flu thing. Cough and cold feeling unwell but temperature was ok because our immune system isn't good do we get this sort of thing worse and will it last longer?

IVIG - how soon does it benefit?
My husband - CLL, on Calquence since April 2021 - has begun a schedule of monthly IVIG, mainly because he had 2 life threatening infections late spring/early summer (staph that went rogue, followed by c. Diff thanks to months of antibiotics). His ID doc has said that the IG may likely have Covid antibodies

Please someone reassure me that this is another IBS flare up
Last year I went through a bad phase with my bowels, had numerous doctor visits and blood/stool tests. The doctor said IBS again due to negative results and also based on my previous history of negative tests along with normal sigmoidoscopy. I've been having sporadic bad IBS flares which appear different

Shingles jab
I may be the last person to know this, but.......having been told to avoid the shingles jab as it contained a live virus, I've just been told that the NHS no longer use live virus vaccines, so it's safe for MPN patients. I have now had my first shotš

Herpes (or acyclovir usage) affecting implantation after ivf embryo transfer?
I have had herpes for about 10 years. I have noticed more outbreaks during stims. I've already had 2 failed transfers and am worried both that having herpes and /or taking acyclovir will affect implantation for my last transfer. I've read some conflicting studies on acyclovir and it's effect on implantation

The forgotten half million?
We went from Shielding to being High Risk to being Vulnerable. Are we now the Forgotten? I ask, because we were told that the Autumn vaccination programme was starting on 18th September, and I started to hear of people getting appointments and inoculations but from my knowledge of their condition and

Workplace Injury
I work in the dental field and was trimming an imperino I was taking on a patient. When trimming the impression, he scalpel slipped and cut my finger fairly deeply. I checked the impression and there was no obvious blood contamination, likely only a small amount of saliva. After following proper protocol
