DVLA eye test result
Two days ago I posted about waiting for my result of my eye test and was anxious it would drag on. On the 13th December I went to see my consultant, I made it obvious I was not happy with the lack of support during and after covid and that I knew my eyesight had deteriorated because of it. Two weeks

Fear of getting ill (nosophobia)
Hello, does anyone else have the fear of getting ill? It's really crippling me at the moment. The other day I had a huge "floater" in my eye. I have been to the eye doctor and a retina specialist and everything is ok. But I'm still having extremely bad anxiety attacks. I'm finding it difficult to

Orbital Floor Depomedrone Injection
Hi All Has anyone had any experience of the above for TED? Been offered this or intravenous Methyldprednisolone. Thyroid Eye specialist has given me a week to make my mind up as to which way I would like to go. There are 3 options, the 2 I’ve just stated or do nothing and risk permanent bulging eyes

PV and AMD?
I've had PV since 2015 and have been on Jakafi for 18 months. I've recently been diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration and have been treated with intravitreous avastin. I've seen some papers suggesting that AMD is more common for people with MPNs. Has anyone else had this experience? Steve

PIC - Punctate Inner Choroidopathy
Hi. I have just received a diagnosis for the above condition. I understand it’s extremely rare and would like to hear about other people’s experiences. I’m literally just on the journey and have had the first of 3 ‘rescue’ injections to prevent further sight loss. Would be good to connect with others

Delayed injection
I have wet md and glaucoma in both eyes. I was scheduled for left eye injection 1/10. I called to confirm my appointment that was made in Nov. and was told it had been cancelled. They said something about my insurance being FFS and I need CAP to get treatment. I have been going to this facility for

accidental overdose of thyroxine
I’m on 100 mcg thyroxine and the kart prescription they only had 25 mcg so I was taking 4 tablets a day and then the recent prescription was 100 mcg. I’ve just realised today that I’ve been taking 4 100 mcg a day I think for 4 days from how many are gone. In a bit of a panic. I’ve rang 111 and they called

Nafarelin
Hi! I’m about to enter my second cycle of IVF, a frozen transfer this time. I’ve been subscribed Nafarelin nasal spray. I didn’t know a nasal spray was on the agenda (not that I’m phased!). Has anyone else had this? I googled and it’s instead of buserelin injections. Does this mean I might not have to

Flare up or just Fatigue?
I have tapered to 7.5 mg this month using Dorset Lady's table, but in the last few days I have pains around the hips which is only relieved by sitting down. I wake up around 4.30 a.m. and so have several spells of faitigue/deep sleeps in the early evening. When I am out I lean against counters

Dry eye medication
For several years since eye surgery I have been prescribed eye lubricants. The prescriptions always say Thealoz Duo Gel yet I have always been given the Thealoz Duo UD even when I questioned this several times. Recently I was given the Gel form and nothing else. Of course this is excellent at night

ubiquinone vs ubiquinol
I have just realised my Coq10 I’ve been taking for three months is ubiquinone form. I just thought I was taking ubiquinol 😫 Been doing 300mg twice a day. I’m worried I’ve missed a trick now. I’ve ordered some ubiquinol now but I’m starting downreg in about three weeks. Thoughts please lovely people

Something I forgot to mention
I wrote about Toprol (Metoprol) a few minutes ago. I forgot to mention that I also take Flecainide, 100 mg. twice a day.
