Is it GCA or side effect of Prednisone
Has anyone had blurry vision in one eye, no jaw pain, no headaches and eye exam revealed nothing to worry about in regards to GCA. The blurry vision comes and goes. I am tapering down. Started at 60 mg for 1 day in ER due to PMR then 40mg for 2 days and then 20mg for 2 months. Now down to 13mg reducing

Very dry mouth
Since Covid in October 2022 I have had a dry mouth with a sore tongue and sore roof of mouth. I am now thinking it is nothing to do with Covid but maybe related to Mercury thyroxine? I have struggled for years trying to find a brand that agrees with me, ever since the original Eltroxin I by Glaxo disappeared

Results of recent X-ray-Early signs of COPD non acute
Hello Would firstly like to say I feel for anyone struggling with this disease. I personally feel quite shocked that I have probably got it! I’ve recently been told that my chest X-ray revealed that I have early signs of COPD but that it is non acute. I think I had two Covid infections this year

Treadmill pace.
Hi guys. I started couch to 5K a few weeks back and have done weeks 3 and 4 (now 2 runs into week 4) on the treadmill. I set my walking pace between 3.5 - 4 mph and running at 6.5-7.5 mph. I'm managing the runs OK but am bathed in sweat when I get off - am I pushing too hard and likely to struggle with

Just a Little Worried
Hello, I went to the GP in May with a pain in the left-hand side of my chest and some breathlessness. A chest X-ray showed hyperinflated lungs, and a blood test showed elevated amylase levels. I was referred for spirometry to check for COPD, and the GP wrote to a consultant to see if a CT scan

Interferons as the First Choice of Cytoreduction in ET and PV
»Interferons are a group of cytokines with immunomodulatory properties and were the first immune therapies used in the treatment of cancers, including hematologic malignancies. Use of standard interferon alfa-2b for MPN treatment has been limited by its difficulty in administration and adverse effect

Tiopex and night vision
I was diagnosed with glaucoma last March and prescribed Tiopex eye drops, one drop in each eye once a day. Since the nights have got darker I notice that my vision is poor when driving at night Yesterday in the cinema I could not read extracts from a notebook when they appeared on a screen - they were

Psp and cataracts.
Hi friends just wanted to ask if anyone has any experience with a loved one who has psp and has has cataracts. At long last my mum got an appointment with a optometrist at the hospital. They said she has cataracts in both eyes and will need to have surgery. The doctor was quite scary telling me the complications

Dry eyes
Recently, I had an ANA speckled pattern 1:640. They ran all the little subtests and all came out negative. My eyes are so dry that I was thinking I might have sjogrens. Also, I have bad constipation that I take Linzess for. Optician said when I was getting tested for glasses that my glands were blocked

Scalp SLE diagnosed April 2021, conflicting/contradictory medications - any advice?

A Fib again
I have had a fib for 4 years and been advised it will not damage your heart. Cardiology advise that the terrible tiredness I get is due to something else. I cannot take beta-blockers because they lower my blood pressure, making me ill. Fleccanaide has no effect. Following a chest x-ray, (all clear)

GCA questions
Have been experiencing headaches for the past few days (but no other symptoms) and am wondering if GCA is more likely at the beginning of one's PMR experience or can it occur any time? Am also wondering if GCA is more likely at higher doses of prednisone or lower doses? Am lastly wondering if existing

Eye Drops
I think I have accepted that I need eye drops, I have been struggling with dry eyes for a few years now, but I was desperate to try and treat the cause rather than use drops. However even though intermittently they improve, they always return. I’m not sure if it’s related to my thyroid issues or menopause

I wish to express my thanks to Pam Perceval-Maxwell for her excellent letter in the Daily Telegraph 24/8/22, headlined "Living with the Anxiety of losing one's sight for want of an appointment for an essential injection". I meant to post sooner about this. This letter only echoes the Telegraph's
