Hello well I've not posted for a while as I've been having blood tests and ferritin level tests for my RLS. Well on my first blood test gp forgot to test for the ferritin level. But gave me ferrous sulphate tablets 200mg 1 a day which gave me severe constipation (is this the same as iron?) and I put

Starting Acalabrutinib
Due to start Acalabrutinib on Friday. Has anyone any advice as to whether to take it with food or away from food? Also, there are other drugs that I'm supposed to take too - Aciclovir, Allopurinol, Co-TrimOxazole. What puzzles me is, if there are any side-effects, how to the docs know which drug is

Very mild exercises causing exacerbations?
Short Version: Has anyone got exacerbations (from bronchiectasis) after even very mild exercising? (meaning that during the exercise I had no or little breathlessness) (e.g. running for a few minutes or swimming for less than 200 meters) I observe that I had these and wonder if this is common. I feel

Broken my shielding
Well I haven’t seen family since lockdown and haven’t been out of the house since January but the last two days everyone has been. My husband collapsed and there was no way I can manage him on my own so my family as well as sorting out the medical side of it came and did all the practical things.

WEATHER IS CAUSING HAVOC TO BODY
Flippin weather. When the humidity started last week I could give Popeye a run for his money . Swelling more manageable but... yesterday with all the storms I became stiffer and this morning every joint and ligament is stiff and painful had to take co-codamol just to get out of bed. I can’t take any

GP Ignoring Me
I'm female mid 50s. I found out I had wildly fluctuating BP over 24 hours, a brain aneurysm, autoimmune thyroid disease, low Vit D (less than 20, UK measurements), raised parathyroid levels - all last year. I lost my 1st baby at week 17 due to placental abruption, 'severe' pre-eclampsia 2nd pregnancy

Can't honestly cope with the brokenness of me, completely and utterly at the end of my rope
Hi everyone, I have just joined this community. I have had M.E for 10 years now, and along with that comes the depression of having this debilitating illness steal my life, but these last three weeks have been just unbearable. I am so used to living with pain, and have also been suffering with PTSD

So I had my laparoscopic surgery to clear cysts for my stage 2/3 endometriosis. I had the mirena coil put in but I am still having to take co-codamol for prolonged and tiring pain in my pelvis and hips which makes the tops up r my legs ache. Anyone know if it’s worth going back to the gyne or if it’s

30+ years of worsening dysmenorrhea
Hi, I'm going to apologise in advance for the long one, but I guess I want to vent and see if anybody has experienced the same symptoms but had different treatment offered, or even a diagnosis? I half wonder if it's adenomyosis but until now just think it's "one of those things". What are my rights as

My blood pressure varies enormously during the day, but nearly always in the normal zone of 120/80 to 90/60 is this anything to worry about?
My heart failure nurse has loaned me a blood pressure monitor so I can take my own blood pressure. I have been experiencing dizzy spells. I also have rheumatoid arthritis, this has flared up really badly during lockdown and I've not been able to access timely treatment. I've been in terrible pain

Arm/wrist
I've got an apt 8the june with a rheumatologist. I've got a positive ana, raised esr, high rheumatoid factor and positive ccp. I'm petrified this pain is something like cancer. My right wrist started hurting and then left 2 lumps. Now I don't know if it's the lumps that are hurting or my actual wrist

Hi I'm here to ask how should I stagger my medicines. I have hypothyroidism, I'm on levothyroxine, which I take first thing and have started HRT 6 mnths ago plus anti histamines, basically I take them all together in the morning. And I used to take cod lever oil capsules after dinner, now I'm adding
