Dronedarone(Multaq) and lungfibrosis
As a teenager suffered from pulmonary sarcoidosis which healed up after 15 years leaving me with a slight restriction of my lung function. During the years up to recently (approx. 60 years) I have had had a few bouts of bronchitis every year. Always treated with antibiotics. My PAF started in 2003

PV and lung problems/findings
Hello dear group, once again I am turning to you, in the hope somebody might share if they had a similar experience. A week ago, I went to the doctors office, totally unrelated to my PV journey, to check out a persisting cough. I wasn't extremely concerned, but wanted to make sure I was on the mend

Jelly legs……..
Hi All. Had to stop Filgotinib three weeks ago as have been felled by bronchitis. Don’t normally -and luckily - suffer any chest infections or colds but this has been really vicious. Am getting over it but have legs like jelly and a head like a sponge if I attempt to do anything very much. Tried going

Buprenorphine
I am writing this to highlight how miraculous Buprenorphine has been for me and many others on this site. My sleep app shows how good my sleep is. I had never heard of buprenorphine until Shumbah posted that it had resolved her severe, refractory RLS. No neurologist has ever mentioned it. Like Shumbah

paracetamol
Not sure if it’s a bad cold or flu I have . I know NSAIDs are a very bad idea ( my first episode was triggered by Celebrex). Has anyone been triggered by Paracetamol ? Are there any safe pain killers ? Thanks

Cold Showers and Wim Hof
I’ve been trying Cold Showers with the Wim Hof method breathing. I seem to feel great for. 3-4 days and then worsen. I get stiffness in my lower back. I’ve read it might get worse before it gets better? I’ve read 3 weeks to reset your nervous system? Any input would be great!

unusual cough with phlegm, maybe it’s nothing?
for the past 5 months or so I’ve had a cough that has produced a bit of phlegm (I’d say maybe the size of a pea every hour as I cough). The cough sounds dry and not like something very phlegmy. This all started because of covid that I caught at the start of December last year. The phlegm progressed from

Scared I might have lung cancer
Home About Cancer Cancer Chat Post I have a cough most of my life, but just lately I have had a horrible, relentless tickly cough, to the point I gag, and pee myself! I went to AnE in February for a cough that was really hurting my ribs.... They saw me and sent me to ambulatory care. They did test

ICU to home
Dad was admitted to a&e due to diabetes but turned out he had pneumonia and out of the blue his best chance of survival would be to transfer him to icu & put him in an induced coma. He thankfully came back to us after3 weeks he was talking & understood after a brief spell of delirium. He was then transferred
