Flu won’t go away.
I was diagnosed four years ago with emphysema. I have had no symptoms. Six weeks ago I got the flu. It’s been a rough six weeks. Getting my breath back and my energy back. Now every morning I can’t breathe and have to use an inhaler. Never had to before. I’ve had a CAT scan of my lungs, and it has not

Please someone reassure me that this is another IBS flare up
Last year I went through a bad phase with my bowels, had numerous doctor visits and blood/stool tests. The doctor said IBS again due to negative results and also based on my previous history of negative tests along with normal sigmoidoscopy. I've been having sporadic bad IBS flares which appear different

Another day another other saga!!You couldn’t make it up!
Thanks everyone for your advice yesterday. It’s been a learning curve & I will be able to navigate better next time. I went to A & E first thing & in triage the nurse said it’s sounds like you have flu. So she did a nasal swab. She asked me to wear a mask & I said oh I’ve done a Covid test. She said

This is my 4th week in hospital. I’ve had 3 chest x-rays, ct scans and mris of all the bony bits of my body to try and find the source of infection that was showing with spikes in temperature, they told me I’ve got pneumonia!

egg collection and bad cold/flu
Once again I’m a cheap date and after only one week of stims I’ve triggered last night for egg collection tomorrow morning (Thursday) everything looks about the same as last few times about 7-8 follicles ready (between 17-22mm) and some others not far behind. I am really worried though as I had a bit

DVLA licence renewal
Two years ago I had to inform the DVLA that I had developed glaucoma in both eyes. It was a very stressful time as I had a trabeculectomy, corrective surgery and cataract removal before embarking on the vision test. The Specsavers team was very helpful in deferring my test until I felt ready to take

...and now I have a cold!
The last couple of weeks have been so busy with commitments both during the day and the evenings that I've only managed 2 runs in the last 10 days. Today should be Week 5 run 3 but I've woken up with a cold, headache and sore throat. AND it's raining AGAIN! Think I might just stay in bed.

Flu shot debate, I've noticed a decline
My mom is 94 and a sibling took her for a flu shot without my knowledge. I then visited my mom about 10 days later and noticed her blood pressure was up to 198, even while lying down. I took her to immediate care where they brought it down but it continues to stay higher than usual and the cardiologist

Need advice about T3 levels
Hi, I have had some tests recently which included thyroid levels and my free T3 levels are 3.1 which appears to me, to be right on the borderline of normal. The free T4 and the TSH are fine by the look of them. Im just wondering if that T3 level is a bit low. I dont have any symptoms I would describe

Covid prior to FET with a positive outcome

immunosuppressants and Covid vaccine
I was told by my nephrologist that I should wait 3 months to get the current Covid vaccine until my immunosuppressive medication (rituximab) wears off because I won’t mount a good response if I get it now. Has anyone been told similar advice?
