I had a bad chest infection too which was mimicking the clot. I’ve been on a course of blood thinners and feel completely wiped out. I had my 4 weekly

Mitral Valve Leak
I had an echocardiogram to see if my ejection fraction had improved after starting Dapagliflozin and Eplenernone a few months ago. My ejection fraction then was about 30-35% and he said it is now moderately impaired with an ejection fraction around 41%. Worryingly the mitral valve has leaked

Blood test for intrinsic factor. How accurate is it?
Have been well for quite a while on my eight weekly B12 injections but had been referred to a gastroenterologist for worsening IBS . He wants to find out why I have B12 deficiency and has requested I have blood test for intrinsic factor. Just wondering how accurate this is as sure I’ve had before and

TIMING OF 55 MG OF PRED...OR SOMETHING ELSE?
I'm currently on 55 mg. of Pred for what was suspected GCA, but Ophtamology and Rheumy say negative, and having a really difficult time with it. Shakiness, extreme fatigue, exhaustion and weakness. Coordination is off in hands with the shaking, to wear I thought I might actually have Parkinsons or worse

Chest pain
Hi everyone, Does anyone else suffer with chest pain linked to their endometriosis? I have suffered with random chest pain for years now (I am 20) and this has been happening for over 3 years. My endometriosis is only suspected to be in my pelvic area, but the MRI also checked for any signs of thoracic

Awful taste in mouth - is this a Sjogren's thing?
Hello - I'm new here! I'm not diagnosed with Sjogren's though I'm fairly sure I have it. I've had symptoms for around 15 years, and I have a family history of RA (with hindsight, I think my mum had Sjogren's too, not just RA, as she had a lot of the dryness symptoms). I've got all the usual symptoms

newbie and waiting….
Hi! I’m a newbie. Backstory: mom and both sisters have Hashimoto’s. My mom passed in 2010 & was told she had “inflammatory arthritis” a couple years before she passed (although by then that was the least of her medical worries). Flash way forward: I started having ocular migraines, very brief (10 seconds

6 weeks on and still suffering with chest infections
My cough started mid January, it was chronic to a point of vomiting at times. Felt so unwell I finely gave in to concerned hubby after 4 weeks and saw a gp. Diagnosed with a chest infection and prescribed antibiotics. 5 days later I developed a horrible pain in my chest stretching down my left side
