Ovulation induction

After dodging Covid for a couple years, today I tested positive. I have a headache, fever, dry cough, chills and sweats. Upon the advice of my doc at MD Anderson, I am going to start paxlovid today and pause my calquence. I plan on getting an oximeter to monitor my oxygen, some cough syrup

Tested positive for Covid 3 days ago after previous 3 days of cold/ flu like symptoms. Temperature (38°C for one day) and deadly sore throat now gone. Continuous dry cough remains. Kept me awake for last 5 nights. Diaphragm now aching and painful when I cough. Tried all sorts - hot honey and lemon drinks

Hello, this is our fourth full cycle (our second in the hope of a sibling for our daughter who was conceived through ICSI 2020 - she was our third transfer from our second cycle). We went into this cycle planning to do an elective freeze all as I've only ever had success with frozen transfers. Out of

So a New Year begins , but rather than hitting the ground running I've hit it with a thud. We had guests for the first Christmas since COVID and one of them had a nasty cough.

Hi. Has anyone heard whether there is likely to be another Covid booster? I had my last in mid September. Happy New Year, everyone. Rachel

I am finding my anxiety about Covid is impacting the quality of my life. I have periods of generalized anxiety where EVERYTHING scares me: from Global Warming to the drought in the western states to my husband dying and leaving me alone. After much thought, I think it all stems from the onset of Covid

just want to give a short update on what happened since my last post. As background info: I have been diagnosed with large vessel vasculitis (mainly general symptoms: fever, malaise, weight loss, increased heart rate) in February 2021. I received Actemra from the start and could thus taper prednisolone

I've just done a rapid antigen test for Covid and it is positive. Some time back when the variant was more serious and the vaccine less effective, I was sent a NHS priority PCR test as I am vulnerable being old and decrepit!!! Should I still use this and is the antiviral medicine that would then entitle

A week before Christmas, both my wife and I tested positive for Covid and it was the first time for both of us. My Primary Care wanted to put my on Paxlovid for 5 days but was concerned about interactions with my Orgovyx and Lipitor. Both should be stopped during the 5 days on Paxlovid and then for 7

I just wanted to share my story and updates incase anyone is travelling the same. I just know that when I went through my first round of ICSI in 2020, I was always desperately searching for daily updates post egg collection. I know you can’t really compare stories given there are so many variables at

Happy new year to you all. I woke up to the first day of what I’m hoping will be the best year of my life only to find I was feeling a bit unwell and have tested positive for Covid 😪 Is there any reason I should be concerned for the health of my baby? I’m 22 weeks and 5 days pregnant with my first and

Need some advice please again. Just getting over Covid. Tested positive on 22nd Dec. Before Covid I was doing a slow 0.5mg at a time taper (DL taper plan 🙏) and was on 5.5mg feeling exhausted and had pain in upper arms and upper thighs etc etc. I was tying to unpick whether this was due to tapering

I tested positive for COVID over Christmas and received 5 days of Paxlovid. I am now testing negative. I understand that once you receive Paxlovid a rebound is possible. I am therefore interested in others that have been down this route and can share their experiences. Can you receive Paxlovid for

Hi Everyone, I started heavily bleeding on Desogestrel after 4 months so I asked to try Provera. The Dr would only give me a weeks worth, enough to try and stop the bleeding for my smear test next week. I thought you could take it for longer than that at a lower dose as an alternative to the mini

Hi all. I know we've all heard enough about having afib and covid. I have to give my take on it though. I've never felt so happy - so here's a positive post about the whole thing of the two together. I've avoided the bullet so far. Tested positive this morning for covid. 5 days of self-isolation with

What are my fellow MSers doing with the newest Covid-19 Variants, XBB1 & XBB1.A, on the uptick in the United States? Do you get a new Covid-19 vaccine every six months? What is the MSers protocol? FWIW, I've read that the newer variants are very evasive to both the original and the bivalent vaccinations
