After obeying the GP who told me the cough was pharygeal and to take a cough suppressant and reduce the QVar (brown) inhaler, and that I did not have asthma, unsurprisingly things became worse. I then developed an ear infection but no surgery appointments available so saw out of hours GP - who told me

Adalimumab
Having had little success with methotrexate, followed by SSZ and HCQ, my lovely rheumatologist has suggested I start on Adalimumab (Humira), at the end of November, bloods and chest x ray permitting. Do any of you helpful lot take it on it's own, as my consultant indicated that, due to my poor results

What can cause a chest X-ray to result in hyperaeration that is not COPD?
Hello! Its my first time here and I think that asking questions here may be very helpful in clearing things out for me. My question is what could be the cause of "Hyperarated/Hyperinflated lungs," chest x-ray results, notwithstanding the good readings on the oximeter device which showed a 99-100 level

Atelacstasis
Hello everyone I have just had yet another chest x Ray which shows the unpronounceable word above on the left lung. Apparently I now have to have a ct scan to see what’s causing it. I have had pneumonia for months but still coughing. Has anyone else had this and how do they treat it? Best wishes to all

Starting again...
Hi, it's been a long time since I posted in here. I don't know if anybody will remember me. I originally started C25K back in August 2014, graduating in the November (an injury held me up for a few weeks). After graduation I carried on running 3 times a week over the next few months. Then I started going

Health Anxiety
Newbie here. I've been feeling sick for a while and ended up in the ER. They ran blood tests, did a chest X-Ray and the doctor told me that everything was normal, that its probably just bronchitis/sinus infection. Today my nose bled twice and now I'm wondering if its leukemia because I've felt pain in

Is Hashimoto's possible without weight gain?
Having recently been diagnosed with autoimmune disorder/Hashimoto's, I have done a little reading and was curious as to whether it's possible to actually have Hashimoto's but with the total opposite of the weight gain symptom? I tick a lot of the boxes, but weight gain seems a very, very common - almost

Asthma or not?
I was diagnosed with viral asthma on 10 September and I’m on the blue (since 10 September) and brown inhaler (since 14 September). I couldn’t get an asthma nurse’s appointment till a couple of days ago. She took a history, did a spirometry test (ok), watched my inhaler technique (good), told me my chest

Steroid update
I had my depo steroid jab yesterday by a Rheumatoid nurse who was fantastic. She gave me a very thorough examination and really listened to me. Never had that before. She then insisted I had more blood tests and a chest X-ray that day. I thought you only had to have a chest X-ray if you were going to
