Father has had PBC for 16 years - Odd complications since COVID?
Hello all, I wonder if anyone here who has PBC (or has a family member with PBC) has had similar experiences post covid? My father was diagnosed 16 years ago. Recently he contracted COVID and was hospitalised (he's also been a type 1 diabetic since birth, so 60 years). Within a day of getting COVID

Does this look like lupus rash?
Hi everyone. I started with a flat purple rash last Tuesday. It’s spread across my stomach and down the front of my thighs. Then a more sporadic raised rash started on shoulders, back, and then my hands and arms on Friday evening. The first marks on upper body looked like I’d scratched the skin. Yesterday

Biomarkers to Assess Multiple Sclerosis
Some review and maybe something new.
Recent research on fluid biomarkers in multiple sclerosis (MS) frames an emerging picture of two aspects of the disease: inflammatory activity measured with
neurofilament light chain
(NfL), and disease progression independent of relapses, with promising

Researchers Develop "Two-Headed" Drug to treat Parkinson's Disease
Although the following research is in its infancy, it has merit and looks promising. In particular that they want to try and make it a oral bio-active medicine. Researchers have created a ‘two-headed’ drug that prevents the production of the toxic protein linked to Parkinson’s disease before destroying

Hi all, Feeling somewhat relived that my latest medichecks test shows my TSH has increased since Jan (same dose - 75mcg) from 0.9 - 3.38. T3 and T4 remained fairly constant (see attached) For the first time I also got TGA tested and they are high, my TPO antibodies have always been negative. So at least

seeing neurologist, advice on b12 injections welcomed…
hi all? have been prescribed with PA. My ferritin levels are normal - 177 Vitamin D- 70. I have finished loading does for b12 last week. My last reading was 188 2 weeks ago but imagine it’s greater than 2000 now. My folate was low - 3.5. My Gp has helpfully given me folic acid 5 mg a day

ATA Virtual Patient Forum: International Thyroid Awareness Week - Wednesday, May 29, 2024, 8pm - 9:15pm EDT
In case anyone is interested, registration appears to be open - both in they are accepting registrations AND it is open to the public. It would be interesting to find out about how useful it is. The time makes it somewhat awkward for many in the UK. I think it works out to be 01:00 in the morning
