flying with lupus
hello. My husband has been diagnosed with SLE. He has discomfort when he flys in his heart. His cardiologist has said there is nothing wrong with his heart although he has pericarditis…. Which you can fly with… so we think it is a lupus symptom. Does anyone have any similar experiences or tips? Flying

Hi, In May 2021 I had the intrinsic factor blood test and my results were as follows. 89 u/ml. With a normal range of 0-24 u/ml. And the following notes. The presence of anti intrinsic factor antibodies together with a low vitamin B12 level is diagnostic of pernicious anaemia Does this make sense to

Rash photo.
Newbie here. Not diagnosed with lupus nor Sjogren's, though I do have symptoms of both. I've had this weird rash on the back of my neck, into my hairline for a while now. Any ideas if it could be lupus/Sjogren's related? Many thanks in advance for any replies.

Autoimmune neurological B12 deficiency
I came across this fascinating study on an autoimmune condition that results in B12 deficiency selectively in the central nervous system. Cerebrospinal fluid B12 is essentially non-existent but serum levels are normal, making this very hard to detect! https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.08.21.23294253v1

neuropathy source
hi all, Does anyone else on here have Sjögren’s as well as PA? I am experiencing constant tingling and occasional burning/numbness in my fingers and toes. (specific fingers and toes, not all)….It got worse when I did a reloading series of dosages of B12. I’m curious - does neuropathy usually flow from

Do you stop Methotrexate whilst you have Covid?
Hi lovely people, I have Covid and am wondering if I should miss my Methotrexate out this week. I was given antivirals, but had to stop because of an allergic reaction after 24 hours. What have you done in the same position please? My Rheumatoid is well controlled at the moment.

Non metastasis castrate resistant
When you are on ADT and become Non metastatic Castrate resistant and your testosterone levels are below zero, what is the cancer feeding off to cause the PSA to still rise? Hoping for your replies so as to give me some understanding. Thank you.

It's my turn now....
I've been on the waiting list since November '23 and now this afternoon I am being admitted to hospital for a CABG x5 tomorrow (12th April) - hopefully no last minute cancellation. Had a heart attack and stents back in 2019 and was blue lighted into hospital so no time to think about what was happening

Addison's disease
Spoke with my GP yesterday regarding the extreme fatigue & rollercoaster of crashing following activity. He is now going to test & look at the possibility of Addison's. How does this mesh with PMR and Pred? I'd welcome any advice or better knowledge. Thanks.

Excess Folic Acid and Vitamin B12 Deficiency: Clinical Implications?
This is a very recent paper. Some of the areas covered are well-known. Such as not treating B12 deficiency with folic acid. But, in the more speculative parts, I think it does raise questions over the prescribing of high dose (e.g. 5 milligrams a day) of folic acid in those who are currently low in
