Covid Tests for Vulnerable People

Solid Organ Transplant recipients, like myself, automatically 'qualify'- as might many 'others' on here. You can

Covid Self Tests, For Vulnerable Folk.
Dear all, The 'Availability' of Free Covid Tests is now 'Limited To Certain Groups', however Sold Organ Transplant Patients ARE Included. If you do want to 'Order' some, then go to 'gov.uk', rather than 119- or the Normal Covid Site. I found this out after 'Chasing My Tail', for about forty minutes.

Haemochromatosis and my liver
Male, now 50. My story starts five years ago when I was renovating my house and tripped down a broken staircase and knocked myself unconscious. I went to A&E and after getting a head scan my GP had me get some blood tests for any nasty tell tale signs to do with concussion and bleed on the brain. Thankfully

Alimta and Keytruda causing major fatigue
Hi all. I am so happy to report that after only four treatments of Carboplatin, Alimta, and Keytruda, my scans and blood work up showed tremendous improvement of NSCLC Stage IV — almost NED but I still have a long while to go. My brilliant oncologist is putting me on maintenance of Keytruda and Alimta

Biopsy Results
Even though I've commented on other posts, this is my first. In July I coughed up blood, saw the GP who organised a chest x-ray. The GP called me an hour after the x-ray to tell me I had a 6cm shadow on my right lung and it could be cancer. After meeting a respiratory consultant, I had CT scan, PET scan

Bone marrow transplant possibility and leriglitazone update
An update to which I had previously posted; ,I went to London and met Doctor Robin Lachmann. He is going to start me on the drug soon then I will need to go bk to London after being on it for 4 weeks so they can tweak the dosage. He views this more of a temporary solution though and I think has concerns
