NSAID warning if TTC
Hi Ladies, I thought this may be useful to share as I was completely unaware until recently. If you are trying to conceive please beware of using NSAID pain killers for your endo pain relief because they stop ovulation in up to 75% of women! This includes Naproxen (which I was prescribed for my endo

Misleading titles
Hello admin.. I just wondered if you should remove or have the title changed on the post regarding measles as without reading further it could be interpreted as downplaying measles? I could not post response as you had blocked replies but post still in place. Just a thought!

Measles topic
I was unable to edit my post. I was going to add: Chippysue, perhaps you are referring to rubella, the 3-day measles, as opposed to RUBEOLA, the more virulent and serious viral illness. Rubeola is a nasty and dangerous virus. People do die from it.

Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio [NLR] or Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio [PLR] & Bone Mets.
New study below. I had a series of posts on inflammation markers a while back. The studies I cited all take the stance that the markers have prognostic value. i.e. if the marker is elevated, one has poorer survival. My attitude is that inflammation can be controlled, & that controlling inflammation

Best NSAID for irritable stomach?
NSAIDs help so much with my joint pain, but they’ve given me ulcers in the past. Any recommendations on what might be gentler on my poor gut? Thanks!

PMR and Zostavax vaccine for Shingles
Hi, I know that this topic has been covered before but I thought I would add my own experience of a GP who flatly refuses to believe that there could be any link between my receiving the Zostavax live vaccine for Shingles in September 2018 and my subsequent diagnosis of PMR 6 months later. I have now

MIXING PRED WITH IBUPROFEN AND OMEPRASOLE
Saw my GP this morning for advice on knee flare up 11 weeks after total knee replacement. Advised I should go back to taking ibuprofen as that works well for my knee pain. Prescribed double dose of omeprasole which she assured me would not result in any gastric reflux. Took first with quite a bit of

Athlete’s foot
Week 8, Run 2 complete and I’m 60! Happy with progress even though I’m slow but I have Athlete’s foot. Wanted to finish the programme before going on holiday next week. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, did you stop until it healed?

Thyroid illness anyone? Maybe not.
I have written at some length on here before about misdiagnoses. We believed for many years that my daughter was suffering from hypothyroidism and other related endocrine problems. She was tested and treated privately in Britain and Belgium for those conditions. However, we were wrong. We didn't dig

Restless legs, is this a symptom of lupus?
During this latest flare I have terrible restless legs, is this a symptom of lupus? The pains in my legs have been so bad my sleep has been compromised and I've needed NSAIDS to reduce the pain levels in my knees and ankles.
