Sick note
Hello, wondered if anyone could give me some advice. My husband has been off sick from work with Covid for 9 days and he has been quite poorly but back to work now. He only works 3 days a week but needs a sick note to cover him for 2 days. When contacting the GP they told him they don't give sick

Treating PVCS on a virtual ward
I have posted on here a number of times about the burden of persistent PVCs. Anyway, after 5 days of feeling very dizzy and nauseous, I went to see my GP. She sent me straight to my local hospital which is a big teaching hospital. I was seen in the Same Day Emergency Medicine unit who were thorough and

Having no temperature
Hi, having lupus, we are prone to having lots of infections. I do not generally get a temperature with an infection as body does not fight it off. Is there anyone who does get a temperature when they are ill? I’ve currently got the flu and chest pains with a chesty cough. I have feverish symptoms with

Targinact
I have had RLS for over 20 years and have tried most medications, the latest being Pregabalin, which was good but is now not working so well. I therefore asked my GP if I could try Targinact as I read this is now licensed for RLS. He has agreed and I just need to taper Pregabalin. Can anyone

Shaking Body & Cold Clammy Hands
Hi all Fortunately my AF episodes are few & far between 🤞, therefore I just take Flecainide as PIP when it kicks off, which it did at 1am this morning. I got up to go to the loo & when I got back to bed I couldn’t stop shaking, I was so cold, then the AF started. My question is does anyone suffer

Cold symptoms with suppressants
Just trying to figure out how my system is different with the immune suppressants. I recently had a cold but it never got really bad but it is also lasting a long-time. I know someone who had a blood infection and her immune system didn't kick in until it was very severe. She was on immune suppressants

DBS effectiveness.
Was DBS effective in treating your pain, stiffness, dyskinesias? Did it have any affect with freezing? I find myself taking more and more meds, and new treatments are taking to long to get here.

MODERNA SPIKEVAX (2022) COVID Vaccine Availability Autumn 2023 Uk
Hi all, As anyone had a Moderna COVID vaccine (2022 version Bivalent Spikevax) this autumn in the UK, I have a clinical need to avoid Pfizer and that is all that is being sent out at present. I have been in touch with UKHSA, NHS England, local Vaccine authority, Haematologist and GP without any joy.

covid vaccine
My Hematologist suggested I not take the flu or covid vaccine. She is concerned it will trigger another episode of low platelets. I had been in remission for 15 months last year and I thought I had beaten ITP. I got the vaccines last year then about 2 months later my platelets were back down to 1.

Not what I expected!
After feeling unwell, I’ve had a lousy night, tested in the early hours and have Covid! Had the booster 12 days ago and the flu jab on Saturday. it’s Sod’s Law , I was going to say a flare and low adrenal function feels like Covid with Mumps . Hopefully i can get antivirals , they wouldn’t give them

Covid 19 booster and pneumonia vaccine
Hi has any one had any flares after these vaccines. GP Practice slow so will have to chase. Had the flu one OK had to go to pharmacy as Gp had stopped doing them. Bit concerned about Covid one and RA flares.
