Antivirals and covid
hi all I am wondering what I should do if I caught covid again? Am I meant to get antivirals? I work in a health care setting which means I’m likely to come into contact with covid patients 🫣 I’m feeling a bit vulnerable and worried my GP hasn’t advised me of what I should know or be doing? I’m also

cardiology referral…don’t know why
since covid in 2021, I get a heart rate of 200+ during certain exercises (I am fit and healthy and now scale exercises to avoid this). Previously when speaking to GP they brushed it off as long covid. Now two years later i did running and box steps ups- my hr went to 200+ with some chest tightness. I

shingles vax
I’ve tapered down to 5mg of prednisone over the last 8 months and so far my PMR is at acceptably low levels. I’ve been offered the shingles vaccine and wondering whether to have it. What is your advice?

CRP 220
Currently in hospital with Pneumonia. My CRP was 180 on Saturday and went up to 220 on Monday. Medics are going to do a procalcitonin blood test which I've never heard of. Could one of you very clever forum members enlighten me

I thought i had recovered from Covid
I thought i was through the worst of Covid as i had been feeling much better overall, but today i did a new test and its still coming up with 2 heavy red lines and now i'm plunged into the doldrums once again. Looking back I believe the 2 years of lock down has changed us, and non-more so than the isolation

Methane SIBO
Hi everyone, I was wondering if someone could recommend a sibo specialist based on their experience. I have been diagnosed with methane sibo by a private gastroenterologist and treated with several rounds of antibiotics. These would clear out symptoms well but they would return in few month.

Having no temperature
Hi, having lupus, we are prone to having lots of infections. I do not generally get a temperature with an infection as body does not fight it off. Is there anyone who does get a temperature when they are ill? I’ve currently got the flu and chest pains with a chesty cough. I have feverish symptoms with

Shaking Body & Cold Clammy Hands
Hi all Fortunately my AF episodes are few & far between 🤞, therefore I just take Flecainide as PIP when it kicks off, which it did at 1am this morning. I got up to go to the loo & when I got back to bed I couldn’t stop shaking, I was so cold, then the AF started. My question is does anyone suffer

Cold symptoms with suppressants
Just trying to figure out how my system is different with the immune suppressants. I recently had a cold but it never got really bad but it is also lasting a long-time. I know someone who had a blood infection and her immune system didn't kick in until it was very severe. She was on immune suppressants

Good news or bad? Not sure.
So I was wrong. My PMR is not back like I thought. No, instead I have covid again. I am very sick but my rheumatologist put me on a pred pack to help and my husband just walked in with the viral medication for covid. At least this way I won't go into an adrenal crisis like I did last year when I got

My dad
Hi, Everyone: My dad who is 77 years old, has been in the ICU since the beginning of this month. First, he went to the hospital for a minor surgery to remove a benign cyst (pre-cancerous).

AF and Covid vaccines
I haven’t had a Covid booster since November 2021 (I missed the second booster last November because I had a bypass). With the various new variants knocking around, I’m considering having one at the end of the month when they are issued to over-65’s. However, last time I had a lot of ectopics after the

Tortuous colon
At my last colonoscopy (at age 60) the doc told me, upon awakening, that I had a "tortuous" colon. This was a surprise to me as I've had 3 or 4 previous colonoscopies in my life and have never been told that before. I have suffered with bloat, discomfort, gas, and other issues throughout my life, though
