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

Less eggs than hoped for but Fresh Transfer planned. (5 days) Any tips to prepare? ICSI
Hey Everyone, Second ICI cycle. I had my egg collection today - 4 eggs collected which is better than 3 first time but i'm also a little bit disappointed as I was hoping for 5/6. Still, we move. All we can do is push on! It’s a strange feeling. I am very cautious, and really don’t want to get

Has anyone had liver issues following covid pandemic
Hi all, this post has actually been prompted by being contacted by a member that has seen one of my previous posts, apart from that I've been away from the forum for a while. I've been experiencing issues since January 2020, and I'm yet to find out what is causing them. These included RUQ pain, itchiness

Reading my symptoms
I have been stuck on 5 mgs of Pred for a very long time. I attempted to reduce by half a mg. I immediately felt really ill, deathly sick and dizzy with nightmares. I have had a very painful neck for about 6 weeks. I took a Covid test because I felt so viral. I didn’t think my one sided neck pain was

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

Covid finally caught me!
After being so careful for over 3years Covid finally caught me! My husband tested positive last Monday and despite keeping well away from him tested positive on Thursday. I contacted the NHS Covid helpline in the morning and had anti virals delivered to my door by 4pm. I am still testing positive today

PMR and Covid vaccine
Hello. I was diagnosed with PMR in March 2023 but had pain from October 2022 which GP put down to deferred pain from hip problem which I had seen a physio who gave me excercises which with hindsight cured the hip pain. I had Covid vaccine in early October and I didn’t make the connection at the time

Cold cap advice?
Im a very lucky gal whose cancer was caught early (by accident) at stage 1c. I've had surgery and about to start chemo tomorrow. Carbopentin only. They booked me a cold cap as I was originally going to have Carbo + Taxil which usually results in hair loss. Now the risk is lower so not sure whether you'd

Weaker left ventricle function (LVEF)
Hello all. I had a routine ECG for something else and they picked up I have a weaker left ventricle function(LV EF). This is 45-50% and apparently 'normal' is 50-75%. I am a very fit 50 year old woman, I have no symptoms - feel fit as a fiddle!. I have no background history of that might be causing this
