When to restart Biologics after Covid Infection
Tested positive for Covid ( for the first time) last Wednesday. Was able to access Antivirals by Friday and by Monday was testing negative. Finished Paxlovid this morning. Should have injected Abatacept at the weekend but obviously didn’t! Just wondering what people have been advised re timing of restarting

Hi all. I’ve not long been a member here I’ve wrote of my Journey so far before but these issues are a few lingering amongst others. When I eat the food I can eat ( explain that in a minute ) I get pea sized and smaller pimples/ blisters on the roof of my mouth and at the entrance of my throat. It’

Bit strange to post this here but bear with me please. It seems that many of the med's for OAB have a side effect of high heart rate. I've been diagnosed with Paroxysmal Tachycardia and am trying Tolterodine for my OAB (which increased my comfort level considerably) but have had to stop as my monthly

Night sweats worse and facial flushing after steroid injection
I had a steroid injection last Friday and have had facial flushing and raised bp in the morning and raised pulse since. Sometimes I wake up about 2am sweating with raised pulse and if I move even slightly it shoots up to about 110. It’s very slow to return to normal. Anyone have a similar experience

Shingles vaccination - or not?
Hi all, hope to get some helpful advice on subject of shingles vaccination. Shingrix is available in my country (Norway) so I enquired of my GP about any recommendation in the light of my long-term polymyalgia (7+ years, maintained on 2.5 mg daily pred for about a year but unbelievably resistant to even

Otomize ear spray
HiI have an outer ear infection in both ears and I've been prescribed Otomize ear spray but it's making me feel really sick when I use it, has anyone else had this experience? I don't know if it's helping my tinnitus as I only started taking it yesterday afternoon. I'm currently using a hot water bottle

Anybody left with servere virtigo after covid ?
I caught covid after visiting the hospital for an MRI to look at my gastric issues. The virus hit my balance to the extent I wasn't able to walk unaided which I have to say was very disturbing to say the least. Since the virus has cleared I have suffered a few events of vertigo ! I am not the steadiest

Sharp pains in head - lupus related or something else?
Hi all, I have general nerve pain in my head ever since I had concussion and whiplash seven years ago - so I'll get fibromyalgia shoulders and pains travelling up my scalp, particularly the right side. It's not that troublesome. But since I had my Covid jab three weeks ago I've had a few episodes

Bloody Covid can sod off!
Hi All, Had heart attack/ stent fitted 10 weeks ago & still struggling with side effects of medication. Dropped down to 1 Bisoprolol instead of 2 & this temporarily stopped the dizzy spells & light headedness. But within a couple of weeks they were back again & I just feel like crap most of the time

My story
Hi, it all started by going into hospital for day surgery for Hemorrhoids. Within 36 hours my wife had taken me back to A & E with a high heart rate and low blood pressure. I was also in a lot of pain, which I put down to the surgery for Hemorrhoids. I was soon in majors and within a few hours I was

Hello,, everyone! Just thought I'd pop in and say 'Hello!' as i've been really busy lately and not getting much chance to look in at the Forum. I sometimes get chance to read but not much time to respond - only to very few! I had COVID again a few weeks ago which has left me with an aversion to certain

Greater use of Benlysta, Saphnelo seen in US, EU to treat lupus
Goal to reduce long-term glucocorticoids use to prevent side effects
In both the U.S. and Europe, clinicians want to limit treatment with glucocorticoids — steroid hormones whose long-term use for autoimmune diseases is tied to serious side effects — among people with moderate to severe lupus

Steroids
Hi I have PMR ( diagnosed in April this year ) My rheumatologist gave me a steroid injection 3 weeks ago in shoulder for pain ( she was reluctant for me to go back on oral preds because I’m diabetic type 2 ) Anyway the steroids reduced the pain for a short while . Then it was agony ! Finally spoke

Rituximab
does anyone have any advice about the effect of the COVID vaccine on Rituximab. I had my first infusion in July which has been successful for me and given me a pain free life. So don’t want to ‘mess it up by risking Covid vaccine if it has a negative effect. thanks

anti NMDA encephalitis
Hi! My husband had HSV1 encephalitis in March-April 2023, then anti NMDA encephalitis May-August 2023. He had the steroids, the plasma exchange but it was the Rituximab that finally got it sorted. I’m just looking to connect with anyone that has suffered with it or their families?! We don’t have
