Another day another other saga!!You couldn’t make it up!
Thanks everyone for your advice yesterday. It’s been a learning curve & I will be able to navigate better next time. I went to A & E first thing & in triage the nurse said it’s sounds like you have flu. So she did a nasal swab. She asked me to wear a mask & I said oh I’ve done a Covid test. She said

walking aids???
has any used a walking aid to improve balance as I walk looking at the ground and I can’t look to the side without stopping first .. flat ground is the best and uneven or incline causes pain in my old hamstring injury and the new hip pain I have developed .. I also still walk slightly to one side

Diagnosis
This is my 4th week in hospital. I’ve had 3 chest x-rays, ct scans and mris of all the bony bits of my body to try and find the source of infection that was showing with spikes in temperature, they told me I’ve got pneumonia!

painful heavy legs …. This has helped me!
I have RA, I also had a DVT 8 years ago following surgery. I have a job which keeps me on my feet all day and I’m in my mid 50s. I had started to get very heavy aching legs. Compression socks helped, but on a whim I bought an electronic circulation booster (the type of thing advertised on TV by

BFP last week but now ill with suspected COVID.
Tested positive after my FET but ever since I’ve been feeling poorly with covid symptoms. Persistent cough, fever, headaches etc. I’m worried that this will impact the pregnancy because it’s so early on - any advice? My viability scan isn’t until 22/12 and I feel like I’m going to be an absolute mess

Constant uncomfortable feeling
I'm hoping anyone out there can reach out. I was diagnosed with endometriosis 10 years ago and had 3 laparoscopies with the last one removing my left ovary and tube over 3 years ago. For the past month or so the pain is gradually getting worse. I'm worried that this will be the norm as its feels too

Finally got flu vax!
After 4+ months of waiting told 'on the list' many times, nurse from gp surgery came. Says don't know what district nurses are doing lately. 🤷♀️ Also gave me pneumonia vax- never had or been offered before🤔 No Covid as run out. Can I sue if I contract Covid or is it all forgotten about now? Yet I

What would cause spontaneous prostate stimulation?
What would cause spontaneous prostate stimulation while lying on my back? When I lie down, in a few seconds it feels like someone is manually stimulating my prostate. This lasts for hours at a time and I cannot sleep. This started immediately after a nocturnal emission, and I haven't had one since, even

Free Genetic Testing Promise Trial
When I was diagnosed with this cancer and looked into this forum for guidance the topic of genetic testing and its potential applications sounded like something I should investigate since I had no info on my biological father’s medical history and my mom died of cervical cancer. My local urologist wanted

egg collection and bad cold/flu
Once again I’m a cheap date and after only one week of stims I’ve triggered last night for egg collection tomorrow morning (Thursday) everything looks about the same as last few times about 7-8 follicles ready (between 17-22mm) and some others not far behind. I am really worried though as I had a bit

Vitamin A - retinol.
Dr. John Campbell posted a video about how low vitamin A (retinol) levels predispose a person to experience pneumonia from the Mycoplasm pneumoniae which is currently at near epidemic levels among children in northern China. No surprise here to be honest considering the severe lockdowns. Children have

late diagnosis-too old?
hi. I have RA but this is a post about my dad. He is 73 and suddenly developed lots of swelling in his hand, pain in shoulders, pain in groin and just pain! His bloods showed RF greater than 200, inflammatory markers over 100 on each and he had a wrist ultrasound which lit up like a Christmas tree with

drugs repurposing: another promising path!
not yet tested for prostate cancer (I think) but still… “But two years after starting a treatment regimen that combined ruxolitinib with the checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab—a current standard of care—87% of patients were still alive, and 46% stopped exhibiting signs of cancer progression altogether.”
