Doctors with Long Covid
Just saw the news item this morning about doctors suffering Long Covid. When COVID happened I must say I thought ‘they’ (doctors) must be prepared for anything due to their choice of job. (Perhaps a little uncharitably due to my anger about my own situation at the time). They are presumably exposed

mucus plugs (plastic bronchitis)
Hi, sorry for gross question but... A long story short: I was in hospital for a severe asthma flare up in September for 12 days (when I was first diagnosed). I was on oxygen and not improving. They gave me a lot of saline and salbutamol nebs. What eventually worked for me was that I coughed up a lot

Not impressed
Decided to go through my medical notes such as they are, and blood tests again now I'm more sensible again. All hospital consultations are missed off and consequently diagnoses. Oh, and there is a gp consultation noted that never took place. Basically my notes appear to be a mess. What really

NSR with supraventricular ectopy!
I just woke for a wee and my heart felt weird with odd pulse so used my Kardia and got this. I’ve had a nasty cold and cough for about a week - might that be what’s causing it. Last time it happened I’d taken something that contained caffeine so haven’t had it again and did have some cough medicine yesterday

Cramping at 10 weeks
Hi everyone I’m currently 10+3 after a successful ICSI cycle. I am getting a bit worried about cramps that have started today and have continued all day. I have had the odd twinge and cramp along the way, but they haven’t really lasted long - whereas these cramps have lingered today. I contacted the

Slight Cold and Actemra
I caught a slight cold over the holidays which I’ve had for about a week and a half. It’s been nothing more than a runny nose and congestion. Very mild. I decided to skip my 6th Actemra dose last Friday until it clears up. It’s almost gone but has settled in my sinuses. Tomorrow is Friday and that’s

Advice please with cold and PMR
For the first time in nearly a year, I have a cold and where I before just go on with it, I am feeling terrible! My body aches so much from my shoulders to the groin and neck and wondering if is this normal when having an autoimmune disease. Should I increase my prednisone until this passes as not sure

Does anyone here continue to have blood in their phlegm after recovering from pneumonia?
I finished taking my medication a week ago, and I haven't been getting much phlegm these days. But now I see blood spots in the phlegm, I have an x-ray tomorrow.I am very worried, my mind sometimes drifts to dark thoughts.

GCA flare
Diagnosed April 2018 with PMR. Three months later GCA. I am currently on 3mgs prednisolone. Over the last two days have scalp pain on right side only … no jaw pain. It feels a bit like I am getting a cold sore but no cold sore showing up. Could it be a GCA flare? Thank you to everyone who replies.

RLS and Covid vaccine
Just for everyones awareness, my RLS was way worsened by the covid vaccine and so far it seems to have been a permanent side effect. I had RLS since I was a kid but tyically lasted 10 to 30 minutes each night whereas after the vaccine (within days) it shot up to 2 to 3 hours. I wanted to make sure I

Devestated - empty looking sac at 7 week scan
Hello, I’ve had a whirlwind of a few weeks which included a totally unselected BFP following our last round of ovulation induction before moving to IVF in the new year. Of course I was anxious but really thought this could be my lucky break and naturally got carried away imagining future baby. Today

Rejected for anti virals
Hi everyone I tested positive for Covid on Tuesday and reported it to my GP surgery on Wednesday. I heard from Chelsea and Westminster Hospital on Thursday.

Chest infection without steroids
Hi, I am recently diagnosed with asthma - back in September with an awful 12 days in hospital after a cold became bronchitis. Was on oxygen etc. I am a man in early 40s.

Covid and flu jab
What’s the experience of anyone who has taken covid vaccination and flu jab at the same time? I have heard(whether it be true or not), that having the jabs 2 or 3 weeks apart could mean feeling less poorly etc. What’s been the experience out there, especially for those who have had jabs(covid and flu
