Supplements while on chemo
Hi. Does anyone have a comprehensive list of supplements that should not be taken while on chemo? If I ask my onc he says to take nothing, whereas naturapaths recommend various things to mitigate chemo side effects. I take a probiotic and omega 3, plus a selection of other vitamins and minerals. I have

Pain so bad. Is A&E worth it?
Had to come home from work due to debilitating endo flare up pain. I am now in bed. I take my mefenamic acid three times a day but it does NOTHING for me when I have a flare up. Also had peppermint tea and have a scolding hot water bottle and wheat bag. Has anyone been to A&E in the UK with endo pain

Hi all, Flew 8 hours from Canada to Switzerland last week to find out if I can ultimately receive FUS PTT. It turns out that yes, except for low skull density ratio (SDR) of 0.34, measured with CAT scan during assessment. Soooo, husband was wrong all these years, I am not hard headed after all! It

Quinoa and lentils with spicy courgettes and mushrooms.
Hi everyone, Here's what I made for dinner tonight, I love quinoa and its a complete food as it contains all the vital amino acids that our bodies need. I also often cook it with red lentils as they both really compliment one another. I sautéed onions mushrooms home grown courgette and home grown tomatoes

HIV transmission through scratching
Hi. I’m HIV positive and has reach undetectable viral load on March this year (2020). Just now i was playing outside with my 5 year old sister and she accidentally scratched my arm with her nails and I noticed the scratch has caused an open wound. Can she get HIV from this? I’m really worried.

I have my first Rheumatologist appointment on Wednesday re my preliminary diagnosis of GCA - (That will be day 15 of starting Pred). An artery biopsy has been requested and I hope to find out today, when that might be. I have kept a note of symptoms from the outset but want to be sure I ask all the right

No medication seems to be working to ease some of the pain
Me again. No medication seems to be working. I'm currently on 3 gabapentin, Naproxen, 2 Omeprazoles (stomach was slightly damaged in early may as I wasn't aware that you had to have a stomach lining tablet with naproxen... Dr didn't give any Omeprazole with the naproxen so was advised to take 2 of them

Genomic analysis reveals many animal species may be vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Humans are not the only species facing a potential threat from SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19, according to a new study from the University of California, Davis. An international team of scientists used genomic analysis to compare the main cellular receptor for the virus in humans

I need a new back.
Hi, I have had my telephone follow up appointment, ( for those of you who don't know, my clinic one was cancelled ) I have been told, that because of the current situation with Covid-19 it is not worth the risk to my health to bring me back to clinic for another six months. I will have a face to face

Generic alendronate vs brand Fosemax
Hi Everyone, I have finally reached the point where my doctor has recommended that I begin treatment for osteoporosis. The hope is to take bisphosonates for 2-3 years then a drug holiday if all goes well. I have read a number of articles that state while generics are fine for many other conditions

Excruciating back pain
I’m waiting for my appointment to go through with gyny and have a scan on Wednesday. I’m on codeine and mefenamic acid. I’m very constipated lol. I’m still getting cramping and ovary pain. The pain has moved right across my lower back for the past week and it’s excruciating. Is this common?

Can Prednisolone Cause Extreme Fatigue?
I am awaiting a biopsy for confirmation of a diagnosis of GCA and started 60mg Prednisolone daily 5 days ago. I take them straight after breakfast but am getting absolutely crushing fatigue around lunchtime and the first half of the aftenoon. This is worse than the fatigue I was experiencing before starting
