Accidently posted this in a different group earlier- whoops! Sorry for the unpleasant photo! My nails have become really ridged and pale. Not sure if can see the ridges in the photo, but the ridges are like a darker colour than the nail and weirdly my nails seem to have an almost purple band at the

Sorry for the unpleasant photo! My nails have become really ridged and pale. Not sure if can see the ridges in the photo, but the ridges are like a darker colour than the nail and weirdly my nails seem to have an almost purple band at the nail bed. Does anyone else have the same thing? Is there a reason

Chickenpox!
On my way to visit my grandchildren and have just been told they possibly have chickenpox! Now I had chickenpox as a child but wondered is it safe to be in contact with them whilst I’m on steroids. I have googled it but still unclear. Due to arrive with them tomorrow afternoon.

New results and an update - Vit D, early Lyme Disease and what looks like vitiligo
Doc called this morning to check in (looks like throwing my toys out of the pram made a big difference!). Results came back and she said I'm severely Vit D deficient (result 22, didn't get the range but "severe" is good enough for me) and tested positive for "early" Lyme Disease. The D3 I bought is

Ringworm Problems
Hello, I’m new to this forum and I need some help regarding Ringworm. I work in a hotel which requires me to pick towels and bedding up quite frequently, and I have eczema on my hands which leaves me with cuts on my hands quite often, and I imagine I caught ringworm from picking up towels etc without

Parkinson's and Lyme Disease
Hello. I am very new to the site. First post ever! I would like to know if anyone here has heard of the correlation between Parkinson's symptoms and Lyme Disease? Were you ever tested and diagnosed with LD? And if so, after taking antibiotics, did your Parkinson's get any better?

Thank you all for your replies, do look at having the shingles vaccination
HI My Friends, first I would like to thank you all for your replies to my passing out on the toilet post, a couple of days later I got shingles I did not know about this trouble painful disease, If you have had chickenpox you have the virus in your body and when your immune system is very low you can

Anyone experience increased allergic reaction to bug bites since having VM?
I had VM last May and It has taken best part of a year to feel back to my usual self. I moved to a hot climate last October and since then have had 5 episodes of cellulitis from bug bites. Could just be bad luck that I’m so allergic but wondering if the impact on my immune system from the VM could

Shingles
Oh wise ones - please give me some advice. I am due to spend my usual Wednesday with my almost 98 year old mother tomorrow but I’ve just phoned her to confirm arrangements only to be told she has developed shingles, poor thing. Now, I’ve just been reading up about it and it seems to me that you can’t

If it's not Chickenpox or Shingles...
I was diagnosed with phoritic RA ( as well as all the other arthritis ) put on a high dose of mexitrate by injection . Anyhow, broke out in a horrible rash on my hands and arms. Went to the chemist, they said heat rash and flogged me antihistamines. Rash continued to be really painful and incredibly

Newborn and chickenpox
Can newborn babies catch chickenpox? My baby is 3 weeks old tomorrow and my cousin has been round with her little girl today and has just rang me to say she’s got chickenpox - she’s only noticed when she’s got her changed - I’m panicking now my baby is gonna catch them!

Surgery Tomorrow
Hi fellow warriors, I’m planned to have a total abdominal hysterectomy tomorrow & I was already feeling anxious etc but now tonight I’ve discovered the biggest horrible boil on the top of my inner thigh. Thanks to Lupus I do often suffer with boils on my thighs but why now???? It’s going to be so embarrassing

Effects of meningitis
Does people with the TB meningitis get (chronic granulomatous lymphadenitis) swelling in the neck forming pus. Does it will cure on it's own? Or it needs a surgery
