Can azathioprine cause chest pains?
Hi, I have been on azathioprine tablets mostly 75mg to 100mg for my Lupus for approximately 20 years. Have been experiencing chest pains on my left side especially after excretion. I had various tests and scans but they are all negative. I had Covid last September and had to stop taking the azathioprine

dizziness and lupus
hey all, I hope you’re all as well as you possibly can be. I feel so bad moaning when I know I could be a lot worse but I was recently diagnosed with Tumid Lupus (a chronic rare form of cutaneous lupus) but I’m presenting symptoms of SLE. I’ve been referred to rheumatologist but still waiting. I have

Parkinson's wife
My husband was diagnosed about 4 years ago though I suspect Parkinsons was developing long before that. Main problem - neither Sinemet or Madopar has any effect on bradykinesia or tremor (let alone the non motor symptoms)and increasing medication e.g. Neupro patch = rotigotine dopamine agonist only

PBC - liver transplant donors and blood group questions
Hi - I either read on this website or the PBC Facebook site in the last couple of weeks - referring to if potentially one day a liver transplant is needed, that being a specific blood group type can limit the number of potential donors you may have? I am the blood group Rhesus Negative and wondered

Elevated LDH
Hello, I haven’t posted before. My 44-year-old husband was diagnosed 2 years ago. He has been in watch and wait. We just met with his oncologist. His other blood counts are relatively stable, just increasing at a low rate. But his LDH has steadily increased the last 3 tests and is elevated. His oncologist

Treatment Update IMRT with ADT 18 months later
Follow up 18 months later. I am due for another ADT injection in December. Spoke to the Urologist and he feels 18months is enough keeping with the European standard while the Oncologist would like me to stay the course and do the full 2 years. I am in favor of 18 months also, that would be nice. Still

Vacation from Lupron/Zytiga - Temporary or Permanent!
I have been on ADT (Lupron/Zytiga) for 2.5 years. PSA and testosterone immeasurable currently. Looking to go on "vacation" from meds. History: Gleason 8/9 with a PSA of only 1.89 (on Finasteride). CT/Bone scan did not show any definite metastasis. PSMA PET showed "possible" metastasis in 4 spots

Heart rate monitor results - another update
We had our second private consultation today for mum. Mum had the Zio XT monitor for a week. She has permanent AF and HF and the past couple of months have been so difficult as mum hasn’t felt good pretty much every day. The consultant said mum’s average heart rate is around 80 bpm, but the monitor

Help with blood results
Morning everyone, I wonder if any of you could help me. I have many symptoms of lupus for years but also symptoms of fibromyalgia. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia for 4 years but no treatment. I had autoimmune blood tests done which I do not understand. Does a medium Positive mean I have lupus

Starting Abiraterone and predniSONE
Tomorrow morning I take my first dose of Abiraterone (Zytiga) and predniSONE for metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer. I don't know what kind of side effects I would get.
