Dog bite anxiety going in for 3 weeks now
So I got bit by a chihuahua 3 weeks ago it was a small bite through my sock on my ankle. The bite does not hurt and there is no pain around the bite, but I keep getting the worst anxiety about this bite like I'm going to die of rabies or something. I have googled so much information on this subject and

NSAIDS affecting blood tests
Good evening, just a quick question. Does Naproxen lower the CRP and ESR levels ? Nurse trying to get me accepted for biologics, she asked if I would be willing to stop mtx for a month to see if it will make my crp rise, but I can ring straight away if too much discomfort. Wondered after about Naproxen

Endoscopy tomorrow
Hi all, I am due to have another endoscopy tomorrow (yes, Saturday) for the horrendous acid reflux I have had since being on NSAIDS from November / December since shoulder surgery. However, I am not sure what to do about my medication. I usually take 100mg of Thyroxine between 6-7am every morning. My

Horribly familiar…
OK, so Avril's talking about Lyme Disease here, but the way she was treated by her doctors will ring a bell with a lot of us, I'm sure… http://www.buzzfeed.com/elliewoodward/avril-lavignes-first-tv-interview-about-her-lyme-disease-is#.pxwNmKLE1

Shingles
I am now into my third week with Shingles and I am in constant pain. I have had all the appropiate medicines...anti viral and neurotin for pain and nothing has eased the symptoms. I stayed on 15 mg. of prednisone and just wondered if I should have raised that a bit. I did not want to have to reduce

Viral meningitis
On 6/21/15 i woke up to a small blister on my bottom lip. This was only the second time in my life that I had a cold sore. So like the first time I went to rite aid and spent the 22.00 on Abreva for a speedy recovery. Unfortunately this time was nothing like the first. My lip tripled in size making

New here
Hi, I live in the US (Texas) and was diagnosed with APS/Hughes in 2011 after a series of surgeries, bleeding and blood transfusions. Apparently I had a DVT in my groin. It was very small (microclot?) and I wasn't given anything other than baby aspirin daily which I have been on consistently since.

What next?/ shingles
I have felt strange the last few days and thought it was the lowering of the prednisone. Last night the pain , in unusual areas became intense and I thought I was having a heart attack. With the aid of the Internet, I am pretty sure I have Shingles. This occurred to me at 4:30 am so I have not contacted

NSAIDs reduce progesterone and ovulation
Many women with endo take NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) for endo pain e.g. ibufrofen, naproxen etc. This article explains how it has been observed that these drugs reduce ovulation and also reduce progesterone. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3124640/Are-pain-drugs-making-INFERTILE-Naproxen-diclofenac-significantly-inhibit-ovulation-just

Nutribullet? ??
Happy holiday everyone😊 Was going to get a nutribullet blender today. Was reading reviews and not sure on it now. Thought I would run it by you guys. Do you use the nutribullet? Would you recommend it? ☺ If not, what do you use? Vitamix has great reviews, but very expensive! Appreciate any feedback

Cabbage juice and peptic ulcer / natural healing
Hi all, I have been suffering as most of you will know with long term pain in my shoulder despite surgery last October. The NSAIDS I was given (indeed that I need for all my joints) have given me a peptic ulcer which I have written about before, which is also giving me much misery. I have tried lansoprazole

Update - good news
Just a quick update. My CA125 was 5 on Tuesday. I got the result yesterday. So hopefully ibuprofen is continuing to work for me after my chemotherapy which finished in November 2014 (3rd round of chemo). See my previous posts about ibuprofen, NSAIDs and aspirin - their effect against cancer.

Shingles when you're immunosuppressed
