Next instalment. I thought I`d better do this now before I start working.
In fact, I don't remember ever seeing my dad drunk, except for one occasion when he had had, perhaps, an excess of drink. We were on a family holiday in Ireland, in a horse drawn caravan, which in itself was an experience, especially for the horse as we had no prior experience whatsoever of the care

RLS? PLMD? Myoclonic Jerks? All of the above?
I am a 69 year old man in the United States. In 2016, I started experiencing leg spasms that would occur when I lie prone or leaned back in my recliner. I first noticed it during the day, but it would soon keep me from falling asleep and staying asleep. I mentioned it to a doctor I was visiting for

Nerve root block?
One of the options to treat my now diagnosed spinal stenosis and sciatica is a steroid injection. Is there any contraindication being on 2 mg pred? Any experience of this injection?

Doctors.... blood tests..... need I say more??
I have Hashis, Addisons and a slew of other things.... my old consultant (private not NHS) often called me a modern medical mystery! I have Addisons (PAI) but about 2 years after my diagnosis I had to have steroid injections in my spine- caused my BP to rise to dangerous levels and it's never come down

Travelling with interferon/pegasys
Hi , I have just recently started on the pegasys weekly injections . I am travelling to Greece and wonder if anyone can recomend the best way to keep the medication at the correct temperature whilst flying and travelling. Is there a chargeable medication box which I could charge using a battery pack

thyroid and knee steroid injection.
hi I’ve recently been diagnosed as having hypothyroidism and I’m taking thyroxine. A few days ago I had a steroid injection in my knee for an injury that hadn’t healed. My question is can the injection affect thyroxine. I’m totally shattered.

Streptococcal Bacterial Meningitis
Hi, everyone! I was admitted to the hospital on March 11 and diagnosed with Streptococcal Bacterial Meningitis and hospitalized for 17 days. Just released last Thursday. This was all brought on by an ear infection that I guess turned into meningitis. I had all the tests and scans and was told I was lucky

Interferon and the liver
question to all my MPN people on here who are taking pegasys or besremi, how do you manage elevated liver enzymes? Do they cycle up and down? Is there anything we can do to bring them down? What is acceptable to y’all? My hematologist says not to worry until they hit 2-300.. My blood numbers actually

headache update #3
Yesterday was bad. Last night agony. Went back to instant care today hoping for the steroid injection the ER Dr recommended. Dr said in his experience the shots aren’t super effective and don’t last long. He did seem to agree with the occipital neuralgia diagnosis. So instead we are going with stronger

guided steroid injection
I’m due to have a guided steroid injection in the big knuckle joint on my foot to alleviate pain, stiffness and immobility caused by my rheumatoid condition. . I’m hoping it may also help the tendinitis and Enthetitis that resulted from a severe leg muscle injury that was untreated due to the pandemic

benign paroxysmal positional vertigo
I suffer with this occasionally. I take methotrexate and hydroxychloroquine. Is this a drug side effect and does anyone else suffer? Thanks.
