Beta Alanine: STOPS or STARTS itch?
Considering trying Beta Alanine to stop my PV itch, but every time I Google what makes it STOP itch (i.e., how does it work?), all I come up with are articles that say it STARTS itch! Did anyone w/ PV, AP, etc. have their itch actually intensify by taking BA? Also curious if anyone happens to know

Finished Venetoclax, then Covid
My doctor prescribed Venetoclax after two rounds of chemo/immuno infusions to fight CLL. I felt great! Swimming half a mile, felt strong. Then bronchitis, pneumonia, and Covid. Was hospitalized and released in 6 days. But my home convalescence is not what I expected. Weakness, coughing, general severe

COVID Vaccination and Chest pain
Is anyone out there concerned that there might be a link between COVID booster vaccinations and chest pain. I've posted before about my condition but here's a recap - In December 21, about 10 days after a Pfizer booster, I started to develop chest pain at rest and a burning sensation down my left arm

Covid exposure at 8 weeks 3 days pregnant
I'm looking for some reassurance or support. I was in contact with my 9 year old nephew yesterday. He had no symptoms but we spent a good length of time in same room together watching TV with minimal ventilation. Last night he got up with a fever and tested positive for covid on an LFT this morning.

Dry achey eyes
I have ET Calr diagnosed 5 years ago on Hydroxycarbamide. Recently I have had problems with my eyes. Very achey, dry, frequent styes. My GP gave me eyedrops for the dry eyes, which have helped but the eye ache is still a problem. Anyone else experienced this?

Covid vaccines and Lupus Flare - up
Everytime I get a Covid shot I get a painful Lupus Flare- up for 4 to 5 months . In the 30 years of having Lupus I have never been so sick as since I have been taking Covid shots . I am thinking I will wait at least 1 year , if not longer for another one .

Covid and flu vaccination ?
Tomorrow I am due for both a covid and flu vaccination. I received a letter from the health authorities and I was offered both as I have the relevant health issues. This is the first time I fall in this category, even when taking pred. and being in the hospital for 5 days with asthma attack (covid) in

Vaccines – at what point do they become a disbenefit?
I need to state out front that I’m not anti vaccination, I believe in the benefits having had several as a kid and now 6 anti COVID doses. But I’m now being bombarded with NHS offers of several different vaccines, COVID, Flu and shingles among them, and it has made me think of possible issues before

MtX or am I just unlucky?
I have been on 20 mg MtX for now 3 weeks, titrating up over 3 months. I just recvered from an UTI that has needed 2 rounds of antibiotics (hope to be clear now) and 3 weeks of a milder cold virus! Then for 2-3 days I was well and then again down with a severe cold, lasting now 2 weeks and it is progressing

PMR & COVID Vaccine Link?
