Starting Pegasys
hi all, I’m about to start the next stage of my treatment journey, 45mg Pegasys fortnightly. I’ve picked up the meds and just waiting for my remaining blood tests to come back before I start. I’ll update this thread over the next 12 months with various updates from how the first injection went and

Tilt Table Test
Well, on Thursday I had a Tilt Table test and it was positive. My blood pressure rose to 185/110 before taking a nosedive to 80/54 with me on the verge of passing out. My nurse then stopped the test and reclined the table. I am pretty certain that I did not escape Sjogrens with my year on Pegasys. I

Great progress on Pegasys!
I’ve been on Pegasys for 16 months. When I started, my JAK-2 Allele burden was 29%. Today it is 14%! I was one of the folks who needed a higher dose of Peg to respond. Over 7 months, my dose was gradually increased, and I didn’t see a response until I was at 180mg/week. My blood work is now 100%

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

Pegasys skin?
Has anyone else had their skin turn into rough, dry, chicken skin on large parts of their bodies after taking Pegasys? Mine started out with itchiness, and now the skin itself is weird. I've used tons of lotion, including Sarna. I have also taken Beta Alanine orally. Problem is growing worse. Any solutions

Flagyl ( Metronidazole) Side Effects
Hi my friends, I was given Flagyl to treat my digestive system after an episode of food poisoning but this medicine caused a lot of annoying side effects like heartburn and bloating. Did any one had this medicine and how did you feel. Many thanks

Do you want to know more about.. Bradycardia?
Bradycardia is a term that describes a number of different conditions in which the heart beats at an unusually slow rate. If impulses are sent from the sinoatrial node at a slow rate, or if the impulses are delayed as they travel through the conduction system, the heartbeat will be slow. For further

electric toothbrush, and Trigeminal Neuralgia
hello everyone, does anyone use an electric toothbrush and they also have trigeminal neuralgia?, I stopped using my electric toothbrush in fear of the pressure causing/triggering the pain. Now I feel as though my teeth are not as clean.

DSNS Taper Question
Hi all, At a recent visit to my Rheumy, he told me I'm ready to taper once again. At the time, I was at 7 MG PRED per day. I had been sick with Bronchitis for more than a month, and also had to care for my wife who contracted pneumonia a month before that, so I was not able to taper during that time

low stomach acid
Post from lady on here earlier caught my attention and I wonder if any of you knowledgable people can throw some light on this? I done the home test - some baking soda & water first thing and no burp at all which indicates low stomach acid. Thankfully I do not have discomfort but I’m concerned about

Prucalopride
I had an appointment with the gastroenterologist last week and she has advised that I have IBS-C. Previously she advised I had SIBO and was prescribed rifaximin. That antibiotic did not solve my problem. I am suffering with excessive gas, trapped wind and bloating. I have been on laxido for around

Alvesco 160
Hi. the doctor changed my inhaler to Alvesco 160, one dose twice a day. Does anyone of you have experience with this inhaler? How long does it take for the inhaler to start working? And I wonder if this is a sufficient dose if I have severe asthma? Thank you for all your replies. Regards

Affect of Alendronic acid if needing dental work?
This aspect bothers me as well as the implications of taking Alendronic acid. At age 81 after taking AA for about 18 months, I stopped it after I was prescribed HRT patches for another problem . Whilst HRT protects bones to a certain extent , I believe it doesn't increase bone density as does AA.
