Shingles with CLL
Hi all Has anyone had shingles post FCR. Ive had it for a week now and just finished a course of Aciclivor 800mgs 5 x a day. Spread of the rash is continuing although slower. Anyone have any idea how long this painful virus lasts and any advice for dos and donts thanks.

Patches for pain relief
Hi, I am suffering with pain in my hands and wrists (I have lupus and aps). I am unable to tolerate NSAIDs and take tramadol with minimal affect. I am seeing my gp in a couple of days and was going to ask him about bupronorphine patches. Does anyone have any experience with these for joint pain also

Long term NSAIDs and kidneys
Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has experienced kidney issues after being on NSAIDs long term. I have been on NSAIDs for approx 35 years and I have never had a break. I've previously also been on long term steroids and methotrexate. 3 years ago I had a kidney infection that took about 4 lots of antibiotics

Not diagnosed yet, but got severe issues, something needs to be done
Hi, I have never been diagnosed with endometriosis, as I declined a laparoscopy years ago, and have been surviving on monthly NSAIDS ever since. Now, I've got severe bowel issues recently, went to A&E twice last week because of blood in my stools and heavy cramps. This is happening in between my periods

Lyme Disease?
So basically for the last 2 years I've been experiencing loads of different symptoms which have just got worse and worse. Always get the typical look from my doctor like 'it's all in your head'.. I literally have every symptom of Lyme.. Head pressure on one side Tinnitus Dizziness Brain fog / much slower

Feeling pretty Yukky and shingles again!!
Morning all, had my second chemo of Caelyx and carbo on Tuesday and I can't believe how yuk I feel on it, headaches, nausea and shingles again, have been informed that I will probably get them each time.

Indomethacin / Xtandi
My guess is that some out there are up to speed on indomethacin, but I don't recall reading about it before this morning. [1] Wikipedia. "indomethacin ... is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) commonly used as a prescription medication to reduce fever, pain, stiffness, and swelling from inflammation
