Failed Coiling/Web
Hi everyone, this is my first post. I went to theatre yesterday for a Web or balloon coiling for a small 3mm anni. I have two, one is 6mm and has been monitored for 20 years with no change. The one they wanted to operate on was found in 2017, but had been slowly changing since 2010 when looking back

Are you still looking for help?
If you are wondering why you still can't get a diagnosis this may help you. Toxic Mold and Lyme Disease often go hand in hand and cause symptoms in all sorts of ways including those associated with thyroid problems. This may give you a few clues: https://toxicmoldproject.com/?idev_id=22&idev_username

Knee replacement and PMR
After seeing my latest knee x-rays, my ortho surgeon has added my name to the waiting list to have a total knee replacement (sigh). We discussed my ongoing weight loss and he was very encouraged by my efforts thus far, and I'm more determined than ever to drop another 20 pounds (and do my daily quad

Anyone with symptoms like mine?
It started with high fever, a recurring headache and red welts across my chest. I hate being ill - and hospitals - so begrudgingly went to the local hospital with my wife only to be told I had shingles and should be put in a ward immediately. However, that hospital did not a full-time skin doctor

Shingles vaccine
My GP is recommending I get the shingles vaccine. I thought I had read that PMR (which I have) can be a side effect of the vaccine. I am asking what you think.

Shingrix Vaccine - Experience of Others...?
I am considering having the Shingrix vaccine (first in series of two), and I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions on what to do to help with the apparently unpleasant side effects. I can't take NSAIDs due to Dr. orders. But, would like to hear of others' experience with this shot and have an idea

Use of ibuprofen and risk of Parkinson disease
Use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) in general, and possibly ibuprofen in particular, has been shown to be related to lower PD risk in previous epidemiologic studies. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/21368281/

Lap 3 on the horizon
I've been away from this forum for a while for one reason and another but endo has reared its ugly head yet again. You can see my whole story in past posts but basically I'm stage 3/4 endo and have had x2 laps, last one in march 2018. I have tried the pill, mirena and now qlaira with no luck or relief

Cellulitis question...
I have primary LE in my lower right leg. I was diagnosed Tuesday with cellulitis in it and also a kidney infection. I've never had it nor have I ever had pain in that leg. Only mild aching discomfort after a lot of walking. What's new, redness, a disperse rash on the inner part of the lower leg from

Flying after suffering a brain abscess
I suffered a left temporal brain abscess about 18 months ago. I've had set backs with my recovering but now feel fit enough to go on holiday. We've booked and will be going in a few days but it's a 5 hour flight and I'm worried about how it might effect me. Has anyone got any advise for me?

Higher the ANA more likely it’s Lupus?
I have gone from being treated for Lyme disease to being referred to a Rheumatologist because my ANA is 1:1280. When i’ve read up about Lupus it’s such a strong possibility. With a level this high is it more likely to be Lupus? Anyone else with ANA at this level i’d be interested in your stories. Thank

Well have shingles for the third time, although this is considered rare! Seems that treatment for one thing leads to susceptibility to so many other things! Moan finished

Salicylate Intolerance Causing My (or Your!) RLS?
Hi, here’s the (rather long!) story of how I stumbled over a possible cause of my RLS in case it helps anyone. I had a horrible summer caused by a back injury, cystitis and allergic reactions all culminating together. It's no fun when you are bursting to pee while you can hardly move and the lower half
