I have been on dupilmab for 18 months. I have not had steroids for 18 months and administer it myself. I have eosinophilic asthma.I had to go back to the asthma unit for a review. My spirometry was much better than last time but my FeNo remained high. Bloods done as well. I had a phone call a few days

Can anyone explain
Hi,On Tuesday of this week I was out with my husband having a relaxing drive to the beach. I began to feel uncomfortable. I had a pain in the middle of my stomach above my belly button. My ribcage felt like it was being crushed. I had to undo my bra to try and relieve some of the pressure. We stopped

I had a review a week or so back. Been on dupilimab for 18 months or so - on home care so I administer it myself. I explained that I now cough a lot. My FeNo was high ( usually in three figures) I did spirometry and a blood test. Just been called by a pharamcist - consultant wants me to have a chest

Hypersensitive Pneumonitis Due to Construction Dust
Hi everyone, I’ve just received a diagnosis after a crazy past 3 days. I have a new housing estate being built in the field adjacent to my house. The work has been ongoing for a couple of years but started at the furthest end. Last autumn as the work became viewable from our home I noticed I was suffering

B12 Deficiency, recently diagnosed, seeking advice.

Adalimumab
I have been on Hydroxychloroquine for 2 years and methotrexate for 6 months. Today I had to have bloods and chest x-ray as they want to start me on Adalimumab. Really hate the thought of another medication. I just wonder exactly what the medication is doing to my body. Already had a blip last month

Self-care while waiting for diagnosis
Hello everyone, I recently went to my family doctor about an achey burning in my hips, shoulders and neck that is much worse in the morning, ongoing for about a month now. Getting out of bed and up from chairs is suddenly very difficult (but gets easier by about supper time). My appetite is also down

How overcome a high B12 test from when I must supplement to function?
Both intrinsic factor and parietal antibody tests were positive ("abnormal") with B12 >2000. Methylmalonic Acid is normal at .28. I have Hashimoto's and other autoimmune conditions and I recently learned my mom was being treated for PA when she passed. After suffering so many of the symptoms of PA for

Intrinsic Factor result
bit disappointing it didn’t come back positive., but I know they don’t always accurately reflect the underlying condition.It also means my pernicious anaemia could be due to long term use of PPIs rather than autoimmune gastritis. (By the way stopped PPIs in December last year) .

Beta blockers
I'm 68, female with NASH/ Cirrhosis which is compensated. I have recently been prescribed 1.25 mg of Bisoprolol Fumarate (beta blocker) but I'm so anxious about taking it as my GP seemed unsure about any effect on my liver. I was wondering if any members take beta blockers with no ill effects? I'm also

GP says results are fine
Fatigue, brainfog, muscle aches, joint pain, and other various symptoms. Below are my blood test results. The GP stated there is nothing of concern. He seemed more focused on mental health issues. Is there anything obvious below? Someone said to post here. Rheumatoid factor 8 Range: Below 12.5

I’ve just gotten back from a weekend stay at hospital for my chest. It was a bit of a mixed bag to be honest with one doc wanting to send me home nearly straight away because “it’s all in your throat and you are panicking” to “yes so your chest X-ray showed some white shadows at the bottom of your lungs

Heme vs Non-Heme Iron Supplements
Since being diagnosed with low ferritin three months ago, I've been on ferrous sulfate tablets (1 - 65mg along with 500 mg vitamin C twice a day with meals). It's been working fine (went from 11 to 45 in a month) without any side effects. However, early on, I purchased a bottle of Three Arrows Heme after

Iron blood test results are back, please could you take a look for me?
In a previous post I gave my Ferritin result from a blood test in March (this was 36.90) and I was recommended to check my other iron levels before taking iron supplements . I now have these results back and would be really grateful if you could let me know your thoughts please : Medichecks BLOOD TEST

Low B12 and ferritin questions
Over the past year I have had frequent respiratory infections and when not ill, I am always exhausted. I often need to stay in bed on my days off recovering. Alongside the exhaustion and frequent infections I have dealt with nausea and gastric problems which I always thought were due to IBS. I faint
