Sun protection. Mineral sun lotion on a budget
Staying protected from UV rays is high on many peoples list this week, with layering and staying in the shade so important. I’ve read that mineral based sun lotion is better than chemical as it creates a barrier on your skin that reflects UV light so t hey don't absorb into the skin. Mineral sunscreens

Starting Pegasys
hi all, I’m about to start the next stage of my treatment journey, 45mg Pegasys fortnightly. I’ve picked up the meds and just waiting for my remaining blood tests to come back before I start. I’ll update this thread over the next 12 months with various updates from how the first injection went and

Tilt Table Test
Well, on Thursday I had a Tilt Table test and it was positive. My blood pressure rose to 185/110 before taking a nosedive to 80/54 with me on the verge of passing out. My nurse then stopped the test and reclined the table. I am pretty certain that I did not escape Sjogrens with my year on Pegasys. I

No Spring Covid Vaccination for AF patients
I had a Covid vaccination in January of this year and, fortunately, didn’t get any ectopics or other side-effects which I have had in the past following the vaccine. I was told to have another jab after 90 days (that is how long the vaccine is effective for, apparently), but it seems that the Spring

Shaving down pills
Hi everyone, my mum who I’ve written about a lot here (80, restless legs along growth a whole host of other issues ) has perked up no end since getting her on electrolytes. I’m delighted as it feels like I’ve got my mum back. Now she’s a little stronger, I feel like we could start to finally cut down

Chondocalcitis incurable?
At least that's how I think it's spelt. It's a specialised form of RA and I have it in my left knee (along with normal RA in shoulders, elbows, wrists and fingers.It's also called Pseudogout but as the crystals in Chondocalcitis are calcium they can't be dispersed as the uric acid crystals in ordinary

Great progress on Pegasys!
I’ve been on Pegasys for 16 months. When I started, my JAK-2 Allele burden was 29%. Today it is 14%! I was one of the folks who needed a higher dose of Peg to respond. Over 7 months, my dose was gradually increased, and I didn’t see a response until I was at 180mg/week. My blood work is now 100%

Adalimumab
I have been on Hydroxychloroquine for 2 years and methotrexate for 6 months. Today I had to have bloods and chest x-ray as they want to start me on Adalimumab. Really hate the thought of another medication. I just wonder exactly what the medication is doing to my body. Already had a blip last month

Pegasys skin?
Has anyone else had their skin turn into rough, dry, chicken skin on large parts of their bodies after taking Pegasys? Mine started out with itchiness, and now the skin itself is weird. I've used tons of lotion, including Sarna. I have also taken Beta Alanine orally. Problem is growing worse. Any solutions

New here
Hi everyone. I’m new here. 32 weeks pregnant and experiencing severe urethral pain for over a month. Doctors think the baby is on the nerves supplying the urethra. Cystoscopy was clear, no uti. Has anyone ever had this experience? Constant urge to pee and lightning bolts every few minutes shooting down

Flagyl ( Metronidazole) Side Effects
Hi my friends, I was given Flagyl to treat my digestive system after an episode of food poisoning but this medicine caused a lot of annoying side effects like heartburn and bloating. Did any one had this medicine and how did you feel. Many thanks
