Ok it has happened again. I moved to a new community, and wanted to get established with a Physician. My headaches and neck / back ache and the burning feeling has returned. Upon meeting the doctor I explained I have Mollaretts meningitis and he said ( what is that). I explained it is reoccurring meningitis

Hi, I am new to this site and thyroid issues so I'd be grateful for some advice as I have my first endo appointment this week.
I was diagonised with stage 4 Hodgkin's lymphoma in oct 2012, 7 different types of chemo and 2 stem cell transplants later I'm still here and hodgkins free for 11 months. Due to treatments I have a non functioning spleen so I was on 961mg septrin, 500mg of amoxicillin & Aciclovir every day. Many meds

Acyclovir and PMR?
Hello fellow travellers, this is my first post. I have had PMR for almost 2years now and recently got a whacking dose of Shingles and was given Acyclovir tablets for a week, I soon experienced a complete absence of pain, and although very sore, an absence of fatigue. I reduced my prednisolone tablets

FLAIR Trial - FCR for me
Apologies first for the slowness of getting my post out here but thankfully the roller-coaster has just slowed down enough for a few words on my progress with the FLAIR trial. As explained before FLAIR compares IR (Ibrutinib plus Rituximab) against FCR (Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide and Rituximab):

Anagrelide and herpes
I was on hydroxyurea and had a bad case of herpes on my face. Now into about 5th week of anagrelide and now bad herpes on face. Taking aciclovir tabs but seems to be taking a while to clear. Has anyone else experienced herpes as a result of taking anagrelide and if so, any advice? Tinkerbell13

Can shingles have an adverse effect on GPA?
I have shingles along my sciatic nerve and wonder if it can affect my GPA. I am on Aciclovir which I hope will help with the symptoms and pain. Has anyone had any adverse effects. Thanks.

Just wondering if anyone has suffered with shingles since they have been on Ruxolitinib. I was diagnosed with MF 7 years ago.
I have been on Ruxo for 10 months which has been marvellous and has reduced my spleen by 50%, but still low hg and have started to itch again. Shingles appeared last week so am now taking 800mg 5 times a day of Aciclovir for 7 days. Have stopped the Ruxolitinid for a few days as one of the side effects

Rash on right arm.....it's shingles. Any advice welcome.
Went down to the vasculitis clinic this morning, a regular visit though I had rung ahead to ask if I needed to see a dermatologist. The rash on my arm had spread and added nasty little blisters in the centre of each area.....so it's not a reaction to antibiotics, or anything exotic, but just plain shingles

Any tips for shingles?
I'm on steroids and azothiaprine, so when I developed right sided chest pain at the end of last week, coming from the back round to the front, I was on the look-out for a rash. That appeared last night after four days of quite bad pain. The surgery were wonderful - I phoned at 8am when they opened and

Could this be pudendal neuralgia? If so, what would you recommend from your experience?
Back in the beginning of June 2013 I thought I was getting a UTI so went to the doctor who gave me trimethoprim. This made no difference in fact I then began getting a really bad itching and burning sensation around my genitals. Another doctor prescribed amoxicillin for non specific urethritis...again
