Too allergic for allergy tests?!
I had a hospital appointment today with a view to have some scratch/patch testing to try and figure out what I'm reacting to, but was told that I couldn't have it done because I would have to stop my allergy meds and some of my asthma meds and they thought it was too risky.I just couldn't help but appreciate

How do I clean my Omron MicroAir??
I am off work with a chest infection and am looking at my Omron MicroAir, which I have been using quite alot over the last few days. It looks like it needs a clean but I have lost my instruction manual. Can I boil the parts or use disinfectant solution?? Cant remember and dont want to damage the parts

So what do doctors know.....
about viral meningitis. Well as it happens in my experience not a great deal. I contracted it in July 2002 (July 13th as it happens, sort of stuck in my brain if you see what I mean) and was seriously ill in hospital with the sort of stats that make nurses take a sharp intake of breath. My eldest daughter

Could this be symptoms of Viral Meningitis?
Friday August 5th I suddenly became sick: Vomiting,diarrhea, etc. Figured it was just a little bug so I went to bed. Woke up Saturday, August 6th feeling better. Monday, August 8th, found a rash on my chest that seemed to have appeared over night. Very itchy and burning. Over the week from August 8th-August

I have been on Armour and recently Erfa Thyroid since 2000, prescribed by my NHS Dr, and I got nearly better. I put the rest of my mild

Survey results so far. What can be done?
This is the current survey question and results, so far.... How much did you know about meningitis before it touched you/your family? - 82% of you had heard about meningitis but didn't know much - 18% didn't know anything at all At the Meningitis Trust we are very active trying to get meningitis signs

Advice on Anti TNF please....
When I saw my consultant last week he said that i should start reading up on Anti TNF treatments as this is something he wants to discuss with my at my next appointment, November. He said that he is still not happy with my blood results (even though I've been feeling semi normal due to MTX) and that

Great.How do you weigh up benefits of drugs

33 years and counting....My first blog.
33 years ago this month I went to my GP with a swollen knee that kept giving way, I was 10 years old. By November I had had a biopsy and the diagnosis came back of Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis of the Rheumatoid type. 33 years later I have the same diagnosis but have added a few more labels

Ibuprofen with MTX?
As some of you know I've just started on MTX. My GP put a repeat prescription for Ibuprofen in with the MTX and folic acid. In the pamphlet it says care should be taken with NSAIDs so I'm not sure whether to just keep on taking 3x 400mg per day with meals as directed, or whether I should just take them
