Covid and antiviral medication
Hi, I have Covid and I have been offered the antiviral medication. I just feel like I’ve had a bout of flu and am now I’m on the mend so not sure whether to go ahead with it knowing that if there is a side effect I will probably get it. Not to mention I have to have it intravenously. I was just wonder

health anxiety
slightly embarrassed to be posting this, but for a few months now I have really been struggling with anxiety around sickness. I am scared of getting the stomach bag or any kind of illness that could cause me to throw up. I’m also worried about covid. I got it back in July and those five days in isolation

I guess that I Just Can't Win!
Dear All, I have Avoided COVID, despite several 'Folk' in my Flats catching it. I also Avoided it, at my Mothers Flats too...... and have remained Covid Negative, ever since. Unfortunately I have a 'Dreadful Cold', you know, a Real STINK.ER- currently it's 3:25AM and I'm Sipping 'Hot Lemon, with Honey

tests. I've suggested talking to the GP to see if they can offer anything, but wondered if anyone else has been through the same? Many thanks in advance

COVID - finally caught up with me
After nearly 3 years of shielding, COVID caught up with me on boxing Day. It was a shock when the LFT draw a line almost instantaneously. I spoke to the Haematology emergency contact staff at around 9.00am Boxing day, and received a callback from a doctor within the hour. I was prescribed Paxlovid

Antihistamines for Post Covid Symptoms?
Hi, a few weeks ago I tested positive for Covid… It caused an asthma flare but my Fostair and Ventolin along with a course of Dexomethasone steroids seemed to have kept it manageable… Although the actual illness passed very quickly (temp, awful throat, horrible barking coughing fits) I have been left

Any connections between bibasilar atelectasis, autoimmune diseases, Covid infections and/or Covid vaccinations?
Hello everyone, just wondered if anyone has any info on the above? I had a CT scan in November of the abdomen to check out my bladder and kidneys and it picked up bibasilar atelectasis and nodules <3 cm in both lungs. I got the letter just before Christmas, so will follow up with GP in the New Year.

13 days on +5mg but still not completely sorted. Link to covid jab? Also dex scan disappointing.
After chat on here with PMRpro and others I added 5mg. I had gone through an awful fatigue etc very slow drop from 6.5mg to 6mg. It took me about 5 weeks and was feeling good after 2 weeks on 6 every day but stiffness started at week3. Now had 13 days on higher dose...11/12mg.It was better some days

Newly diagnosed
I still feel unsure as the information I have been given is quite sketchy. My initial fibroscan in July 2022 seemed to be quite disconcerting as had a liver stiffness of 41.9Kpa with CAP 400, which apparently is the most they could record, so was a little concerned. But nothing was really discussed
