Covid recovery
Hi, I tested positive on 15th December and was positive for 14 days. It attacked my lungs this time and was bad. From day 1 I was prescribed steroids and a 2 week course of Docyciclyne to take alongside my nebuliser. I’m now on my third course of steroids and my peak flow is still only about 310. Heart

A longer instalment tonight: Granny left school at the ripe old age of 14 in common with many of her peers in order to earn her keep. She went 'out service', to begin the privilege or otherwise of working for some of the 'well to do' families in Sheffield. Her first employer was a Mrs. Bonnington who

Low BP in afib and covid
After all the years I have finally caught COVID. Had a headache for a couple of days which has gone now. Not much coughing, just feel a bit achy and weak.Unfortunately, it's sent me into an afib episode although my heart rate is staying below 100bpm in fact it's hovering around 70 to 80bpm. I was concerned

questions
In the summer, I noticed sporadic noises in one ear. It only happened at night, when lying down to sleep. It was almost like a deep and faint squeak. It lasted 2 days and went away. Months later, after developing a sinus cold, it returned. I did not react immediately as I thought it would pass. After

Bronchoscopy
I’ve been in hospital for 3+ weeks while they try to work out what is causing me to have spikes of temperature, even though my infection markers have dropped. Last night I was told I would be having a bronchoscopy this morning, so not a lot of sleep! I forgot to ask how long these results take to

Biologic with covid
Testing positive for covid and am am taking a biologic.Like my head the info is a bit wooly, but I think it maybe that I should suspend the biologic until covid test is negative. Presume this is correct as i think it should make sense. Is anyone in similar circumstances able to confirm or otherwise?

support in raising concerns with GP
I have been diagnosed with endometriosis, PCOS and a fibroid. I have an appointment with my GP to discuss my heavy periods, pain and new symptoms that have begun to develop. My periods are frequent, being on for two weeks and then off for a week before another two weeks of being on again. I am exhausted

Unexplained increase in mortality rates
I'd like to begin by saying I'm not a conspiracy theorist by any stretch of the imagination but having heard so many stories (mostly first hand and through personal experience) since the outbreak of Covid in Jan 2020 I am beginning to question what's going on. A recent publication in LANCET, no less

Hi All I’ve had Funcational Gait disorder for 12 long years now, so cannot walk very far and rely on my mobility scooter and walking stick to get around. Last Sunday I came down with covid and it seems to have attacked my legs so I’m almost unable to stand let alone walk a few steps. Has anyone else

GP appointment and blood tests - will recent steroid injection skew results?
Afternoon everyone, I had a GP appointment yesterday to discuss my symptoms. Went through everything that has happened since the summer. She sent me for blood tests today which included CRP, ESR, Rheumatoid factor and various other tests relating to autoimmune conditions. She insisted I call back for

what next?
I was diagnosed with PMR five years ago and my gp kept me on Prednisolone for two years which resulted in a catalogue of side effects including glaucoma and cataracts. My diagnosis was confirmed as RA shortly after. I have been taking methotrexate successfully since. However my condition has worsened

treatment for thin lining?
Hello, I’ve got PCOS but ovulate and have an average cycle of 32 days. I’ve been told I have a thin lining 4-5mm. I saw a private dr who gave me cyclogest post ovulation and I’ve used it for two cycles, which have both resulted in a negative test. Does anyone know what the treatment is for a thin lining

Pegasys side effects
I was switched from 500 Hydroxyurea/day to 90mg Pegasys every two weeks. The pain in hips and thighs is substantial - headache also, but not as bothersome as the muscle pain. Has anyone else experience this on Pegasys. Also, has anyone tried CoQ10 for muscle pain and has it work? Thanks
