awful cough
I’m just wondering if I can get a bit of advice. I was diagnosed with bronciactasis a few years ago but have been fine until a couple of weeks ago I have this awful cough I saw the doctor last week and she said my chest was clear and gave me some antibiotics but I’m still having really bad coughing

Please someone reassure me that this is another IBS flare up
Last year I went through a bad phase with my bowels, had numerous doctor visits and blood/stool tests. The doctor said IBS again due to negative results and also based on my previous history of negative tests along with normal sigmoidoscopy. I've been having sporadic bad IBS flares which appear different

The forgotten half million?
We went from Shielding to being High Risk to being Vulnerable. Are we now the Forgotten? I ask, because we were told that the Autumn vaccination programme was starting on 18th September, and I started to hear of people getting appointments and inoculations but from my knowledge of their condition and

Covid & Flu Vaccinations
Can anyone please tell me if you have had both the flu and Covid vaccinations at the same time please. If you have did you suffer any worse side effects from having them at the same time? I have both booked at my GP's but am not happy to have both together as I think this is a first time it has happened

evening update
I don’t have head lice or covid! My nurse checked my head and I took a covid test this morning. I am congested but I think it’s just allergies. I’m a little nervous though bc my temp has been around 99 all day today. Usually I run a little cooler. Today felt much better than the past few days, so I hope

anxious
I woke up feeling somewhat less anxious this morning, which is great. However, my head started really itching so now I have to go to the school nurse to check to see if it’s head lice. My boyfriend also texted me saying he’s stuffy and his throat hurts a little. I really don’t want him to have covid.

Candesartan for high BP
Has anyone taken Candesartan for high BP? I've recently taken Doxazosin, and Peridropil, both of which made RL much worse. My GP has prescribed this to start today. I'm hoping for better luck with this.

Off meds because of Shingles, but maybe answers to other concerns…..
So about 18 months ago I started feeling nauseous occasionally. Moved taking my mtx tablets to the evening, and upped folic acid from 1 a week to 3, then 5. Not making much difference so moved to mtx injections. Still feeling nauseous but RA team reluctant to pin on Mtx as nauseous is generally after

Covid booster and thyroid blood test
I am due to get my annual thyroid blood test in October. Have just realised that I get my autumn Covid booster the day before. Is it likely to have any effect on the test results?

Flu, antibiotics and Levo
I’m recovering from quite a bad flu I’m having to take antibiotics 4 times a day, now this is my question. I’m having very severe headache they are worse after my dose of levothyroxine which I’m leaving the 4 hour gap with. Could it just be the antibiotic hasn’t knocked the headache part of the illness

Covid booster this autumn and AF
One month ago I had a successful cardioversion having been in persistent AF since Easter and am feeling much better for the first time in months. Ive also had MRI and CT scans of heart and various heart investigations which showed I had myocarditis probably caused by catching Covid and still suffering

Pneumonia recovery / Bronchiectasis - what is what? Questions! Thank you
Hello everyone ! Background: I am five weeks post-pneumonia diagnosis. Mild bronchiectasis was diagnosed in both lower lobes (but only partially) one week post-infection. Had pneumonia also 11 months prior - many chest infections in previous years. Questions: Could the mil bronchiectasis be pseudo-bronchiectasis

I have severe asthma which bag at 40 yr old I’m now 62. I have lots of medications tablets and inhalers etc I’m currently awaiting further tests to check copd and possible suitability for biologics. The only thing that really helps well is steroid tablets which I have at big flare ups from time to time
