Covid
Hi I’ve just tested positive for Covid . I’m on 5 mg of prednisone and 15 mg methotrexate. Is there any advice about how to manage meds while having Covid. I feel very achy and it feels like I’m having a flare. Thanjs in advance for any advice.

MSA-C with ataxia rebound
I have not been diagnosed as yet. A neurologist I am seeing is committed to finding out what is causing the symptoms. I was diagnosed with large fiber polyneuropathy with ataxia in 2021. Since then dysautonomia has presented itself. Exercise for balance has really helped but unfortunately my ataxia is

cataract op and reducing pred
I’ve been following Dorset Ladies tapering recommendation dropping 1mg approximately every month. 30 May - reduced from 12mg pred to 11mg. Returned on 6 June to 12 mg as I had a few problems with my right hip then reduced again to 11mg on 13 June. My plan is to reduce today to or tomorrow to 10mg

Help! Stomach Bug & Holiday!
For over a week I have had some sort of stomach bug with awful pains in the lower stomach, causing loose stools, feeling chilled then hot, with a recurring headache. I contacted my doctor asking for urgent stool tests, as I am due to go on holiday to Spain next Monday, just in case it is a stomach bug

Open angle and the gym
Hi, recently diagnosed with open angle left eye, vision loss left eye 23/21 pressures. This has been a roller coaster so far with little info on diagnosis from consultant, thankfully I found this site 😊 I've stopped going to the gym since diagnosis, I was worried I was making it worse, can I ask what

Ablate or wait?
About 1 year ago I suffered with recurrent AF episodes usually overnight and they lasted from 1 hour to 5 hours. On two occasions I went to A&E and was kept in A&E overnight. I got a consultant appointment and he prescribed Flecainide 100mg twice per day and a spot on the NHS ablation waiting list.

Night sweats worse and facial flushing after steroid injection
I had a steroid injection last Friday and have had facial flushing and raised bp in the morning and raised pulse since. Sometimes I wake up about 2am sweating with raised pulse and if I move even slightly it shoots up to about 110. It’s very slow to return to normal. Anyone have a similar experience

Covid has just hit our Thanksgiving plans!
My daughter just called to tell me she was just diagnosed with covid and can't come to our family gathering😪! She's a teacher and during the school year I rarely see her--she's too far away for me to go to her! This comes on top of the news that I do in fact have another met on my brain, likely

When to restart Biologics after Covid Infection
Tested positive for Covid ( for the first time) last Wednesday. Was able to access Antivirals by Friday and by Monday was testing negative. Finished Paxlovid this morning. Should have injected Abatacept at the weekend but obviously didn’t! Just wondering what people have been advised re timing of restarting

Baseline figure from lung function test
After 10 days post hospital admission with pneumonia I went to have a lung function test at my local hospital. The result of the test was 438 a new baseline. My usual top peak flow is 500 (very unused as it doesn't match my height, sex and ethnicity) I should be blowing 420. One explanation was that

Opthomology
Is ophthalmology consultation standard with GCA or do you have to demand it ? Everything is blurred now which came on with steroids - saw my usual optician out of concern but only very slight decline in vision and eyes otherwise healthy. I was surprised when he said come back in two years. Been asking

Anybody left with servere virtigo after covid ?
I caught covid after visiting the hospital for an MRI to look at my gastric issues. The virus hit my balance to the extent I wasn't able to walk unaided which I have to say was very disturbing to say the least. Since the virus has cleared I have suffered a few events of vertigo ! I am not the steadiest
