DVLA Esterman test
I am 73 and as my licence was coming up for renewal I received a letter from the DVLA to apply for a new one. In the letter it stated that I could simply complete the online questionaire or, if I had any of the listed conditions (one being Glaucoma) I should complete the form and return it to them

Post Preserflo implant
I recently had a Preserflo implant and have been applying the steroid and antibiotic drops. Is it okay to use dry eye drops as well? The eye is itchy and it could do with some extra lubrication.

Lupron - are there heart risks?
My father , 83 , recently got diagnosed with Prostate cancer with mets to some bones , as per PSMA test. We have not done a biopsy as one doctor said there is no need to do it as treatment options won’t change but another doctor says it’s good to do it in case later down the line we need to add treatments

Musical Ear Syndrome
Hi. I've been looking through to see if anyone has posted about hearing random music with tinnitus. It is very distracting and making me feel isolated and desperate. I developed sudden hearing loss and tinnitus in my left ear in winter 2022, then recently an ear infection in my right ear made the tinnitus

Headsets
Hi there, I have had tinnitus most of my life but since developing Meniers disease last year it is unbearable at times. I have managed to adjust but I am finding work very difficult. My job is helping very vulnerable people over the phone, calls can last anything from 20 mins to 3 hours. I wear a headset

Advice please re steroid dose following fall, facial lacerations, broken nose etc…
Hi all, yesterday I stupidly trotted across a road, my leg gave way and I ended up sliding across on my face, hitting my cheek/nose on the kerb. Been to A&E, all sorted apart from sore shoulder which is a little better today. The pain feels very specific in that I feel it only in certain positions or

Droxia vs Hydrea
I've been treated with Hydroxyurea (hydrea) 500mg for PV since December 2021. Due to stomach issues in March 2023 the HU was decreased to every other day. I did fine on this dosage. My #s stayed pretty much normal & eventually my hemoglobin and hematocrit were actually on the low side of normal so

itch left upper back
a while back someone posted the name of a condition relating to autoimmune illnesses where you have itching on your upper back, left hand side, no rash. It sometimes accompanies autoimmune illnesses. I use Sarna lotion which is what I seem to recall the poster using as well. Anyone remember the name

Hunger pain
Does any of you experience hunger pain? Mine is the worst when I don’t eat a lot of calories. I think a healthy person would not have any symptoms eating as much calories as I eat on these “low- calorie” days. I even get very bloated from the hunger.

Hearing aids and work
Hi, I started using hearing aids earlier in the year (moderate to severe loss, with profound at the highest frequencies). I’m only in my mid 50s and have close to 10 years working left. As with a lot of office workers I’m now spending an awful lot of time on MS teams. I’m really struggling with headphones

Photosensitivity, eye pain and headache.
I have been photosensitive for about three years now but this year I seem to be struggling with quite intense eye pain and subsequent headache (around the forehead) when outside. The headache goes upon going into deep shade or into the house. I do however, find myself squinting even in the home. I do
