Kidney transplants and meloxicam
My husband is 18 years post kidney transplant. Due to severe pain in “private” areas we went to the ER last night where they prescribed meloxicam. Does anyone have any knowledge on whether a kidney transplant patient can take meloxicam?

An update on my tocilizumab experience.
Hello Everyone, from Downunder, I have now had my 12th jab of tocilizumab and my inflammatory markers have reduced to “normal” levels. I feel strong, full of energy and mentally positive for the first time in some months. My pred is down to 6.5mgs, Rheumatologist thinks I could reduce more rapidly,

Just when it's now safe to go out, a note of caution.
All those who have received a liver transplant (like myself) or who have a suppressed immune system will know how important skin protection is at this time of year. It can feel like we are having to doubly protect ourselves. Having got through the self-isolation due to the pandemic. We can finally go

Stem cell transplant anniversary
It is now exactly 12 months almost to the minute since I watched the bag of stem cells slowly drain into the Hickman line. It's been a very eventful 12 months to say the least. Since my last post 9 months ago I had a difficult end to 2019. I was hospitalised for pneumonia in October which turned out

Kate Gilbert’s book. Polymyalgia Rheumatica and Giant Cell Arteritis: a survival guide. 2nd edition.
I just had to write to say how good this book is and I couldn’t recommend it more highly. I know many of you will already know it well but I’ve only just read it and apart from finding it full of useful information I was surprised at how enjoyable it was to read. I hadn’t bothered with it earlier in
