Dentist and antibiotics?
Hi - I have a question regarding dentist/hygienist and the need to take antibiotics afterwards (newly diagnosed with ET/JAK2 and still bringing down platelets with Hydroxy). My haematology team recommend antibiotics after any major work, and for the dentist/hygienist not to use too much pressure. The

Left Ventricle?
Hi..had an echocardiogram yesterday and the radiologist is referring me to the cardeologist because she said she can't tell if my left ventricle is operating at optimal capacity...right away I'm spooked by this...since lockdown in 2020 I've gone from 4-5 days of 45 mins on the treadmill and moderate

Tattoo /steroids
My rheumatologist mentioned I might need steroid injections into my feet/toes specifically (guided by ultrasound). I have a large foot tattoo (well, I have fairly small feet but tattoo is across a fairly large proportion). She said they'd inject just beside it. I'm quite anxious about damaging my tattoo

Covid
Hi all.So, I'm now on my 4th bout of covid. I am not really so surprised I'm stuck with heart problems. I guess it can only get worse. Has anyone else had covid 4 times, or at least more than once? I want to point out that I am a healthcare worker and have been vaccinated, although I don't believe

Am I at a higher risk from Covid ?
Hi, Ive seen on MPN voice and here that people with an MPN are at a higher risk from Covid. I have ET which is currently being treated with Pegasys and Aspirin. Am I classed as vulnerable? There is an option at work to have a special risk assessment if i am. I didnt ask my consultant and now wont see

Covid booster..good news story
We are all different, and respond differently to meds, vaccines, etc. I thought I'd post to say I had both my Covid booster (my 7th covid jab to date) and my flu jab on Sat. I had a slightly sore arm, and that was it. The least reaction I've had to date. BTW I was Pfizered, like in the spring. I

New research - COVID-19 Tied to Autoimmune Disease Risk

Covid Vax when Sick?
Does anyone know whether it's advisable to get vaccinated when you're ill with something else? For the last week I've been laid out with either a cold or allergies (leaning toward the latter based on symptoms) and I'm scheduled to get a combo covid/flu vax tomorrow. I really want to get that done ASAP

Covid Jabs
Does being hypothyroid and asthmatic qualify anyone aged 60 for a Covid jab this winter, does anyone know? Receptionist at my surgery has just told me not. Although they want me to have a flu jab! I can't figure that out at all... And what do you guys think about having one anyway? I've had three

Invited For Covid Jab
I had a text this morning urging me to book in for a covid booster much to my surpise. I'm not sure what my elibility is based on, I'm not over 65, not diabetic or immunosuppressed. No kidney or heart problems. Certainly not pregnant. I dont have a serious lung condition. I do have asthma and use

flu and covid booster
I had several texts from the NHS inviting me for both flu and covid shots due to my medical condition. My only condition is AF. I booked in with my local pharmacy today, but he would not give me the booster as I am now on Flecanide and he said under new guidelines it is not recommended. I am very confused

Covid Jab. Know ur NHS NUMBER to book
I got a message from the NHS inviting me to book an appointment for my covid jab. I did it all via the NHS app & it's stress free & took all of a minute. Infact the hardest question was what accessibility needs I require at the pharmacy & they give you a list of 5 & book at your nearest one. Once you've

😵💫Crazy COVID story 😷🤧
So My friend who was infected a couple weeks ago for the first time with COVID saw his Dr and was prescribed paxlovid, one of 2 main antiviral treatment that is given to COVID infected people.

GP insisting on using CRP & ESR as inflammatory markers...and managing to get a creatine kinase blood test ordered...legs are still an issue
Hello I was called in to my GP surgery yesterday, by one of the GPs, the letter indicating it was for a medication review. She's not one of the GPs I prefer to see, she can be a little vague etc. But we ended up going through my meds and she asked about steroids being on my repeat....I said that although

The more symptoms the better? Covid-19 vaccine side effects and long-term neutralizing antibody
I've just read the extensive discussion about post-vaccination side effects initiated by Sharastani "After COVID vaccination, when do ‘side effects’ become an ‘adverse reaction’?" https://healthunlocked.com/cllsupport/posts/150070059/ Having read the discussion, I feel compelled to share with you

Covid or Asthma
So I recently had Covid and tested negative on Friday, I didn't feel particularly ill throughout my week with Covid apart from complete and utter exhaustion and some ear/ sinus infection which turned out to be a nasty ear infection. I've got this nasty chesty cough and yesterday and today I've been slightly
