Seeing infectious diseases consultant this morning.
I have had symptoms for decades. It feels to me like more minor recurring meningitis. Five years ago at this Infectious diseases clinic, They diagnosed me with CFS/ME. It was the only thing they had left. Five years ago I didn’t know about recurring meningitis. Know that I do I am going to ask them

Gum boil and surgery
Has anyone here had a gum boil that required surgery? My situation has developed as the result of a fall back in the 1980s that broke my jaw. Now I have severe bone loss in the area around a tooth near the jaw break and have developed this gum boil at the surface which implies infection underneath.

Any Treatment Options?
I was diagnosed 3 years ago with Lupus/Sjrogens/Hughes (already had Hashimotos's) This came on or was triggered after being hospitalised with severe Neurological Lyme Disease where I was hospitalised for many months and with nursing care at home for nearly 2 years back in 2009 - I never really got better

Chickenpox
I’m a nanny and at work today I had three of the children off with chickenpox. I’ve never really given it much thought, I’ve taken care of children with chickenpox before. But should I be concerned? Am I likely to catch it? I had it as a child so I’m assuming I’m immune but googling hasn’t set my mind

PMR and the shingles vaccination
Diagnosed with PMR in January this year having had symptoms from last October 2018. On 30th August 2018 I had the Zostavax shingles vaccination. Having looked on line I have found a Safety information for Zostavax from Merck vaccines who produce the vaccine. It states 'serious vaccine- related adverse

Splinter
i recently pulled a splinter from my index finger, now it's swollen and has been for several days. I applied ice to the finger and the swelling has not gone down. What should I do?

Chicken pox and auto immune disease?
Hi all. My son has woken up with a few spots and I'm obviously concerned it is chicken pox. Though I don't think this IS on this occasion (though I'll be monitoring) it did raise the possibility of him getting it in future (he is 6). I never had chicken pox growing up and I realise that it is serious

Still no treatment (UK)
Hi Everyone In my last post I thought my partner was about to start treatment, but after a 10 minute consultation at Kings he was told he seems to be managing without ( despite meeting the criteria for treatment) and the next appointment was put out 5 months. Since then his blood results have arrived

The journey to recovery (viral meningitis)
Hello and this is my story....I’m about 2 months post viral meningitis and this has been a slow journey to recovery. I had the same experience as most of you, several trips the the ER and my primary care provider and no relief or diagnosis. The only symptom I had that really stood out was the headache

Does anyone know what these marks are??? First one appeared I thought it was a burn even though it was on elbow. Leaves a scar behind
Any idea? First one appeared about 2 weeks ago. Convinced myself it was just a burn. Took ages to heal. No itching like a bite would and no pin mark in the centre. Almost boil like without the boil! The second photo I tried to take was of the scar it left behind. Not great I know 😏

Does anyone know of a good doctor here in the United States that is familiar with meningitis?
I live in the United States of America and so far the doctors i have been to are baffled and their idea of testing for meningitis is by touching your chin to your chest and asking if it hurts if it doesn't hurt than they automatically rule out the possibility of meningitis without actually doing a screening

Hypothyroid - problem with nails?
Hello lovely thyroid warriors. It's been a while since I posted but am having a problem with my nails and wondered if anyone had experienced similar. My latest test results are as below.
