Saline nasal rinse and glaucoma
I suffer with allergies and used to use steroid nasal spray. Now I have glaucoma I now know that these sprays are bad news! I've been looking into saline nasal rinse kits as an alternative to help me with the chronic catarrh in my throat but can't see any information about if these are safe to use for

Problems with neck causing shoulder and arm pains
I have been back and forwards to the doctors over the past couple of years with a suspected torn rotator cuff in my right shoulder. I had a ultrasound on shoulder 2 months ago and was told my shoulder is fine and I probably have a neck problem which is causing the pain. Contacted doctors again and was

PEG/RIG feeding tubes
Hi chaps, question for you. My wife has now had MSA since 2016 so is a fair way into it. She has the usual problems and is now too late for PEG tubes, however, it still might be possible for a RIG set up. She no longer eats much so I make her diet high in calories etc, drinking is sort of ok for now.

Aching face
Diagnosed with PMR in March 2023. Started on 15mg Prednisolone and got down to 12mg in July but not able to go down further. Pred relieved most of my symptoms and allowed me to lead an almost normal life with not too many side effects. Since then, I seem to have gone backwards and had to return to 15mg

Uvitis when tapering prednisone
My eyes became very sore a month ago, on Christmas day actually. I had headaches around my eyes. They were very red and stingy. There was no discharge or stickiness like you get with conjunctivitis. Nonetheless, I was diagnosed with viral conjunctivitis by a GP. The condition got better but I still have

Prontogest injection site

Mixing medications
Apologies if this is a well repeated question, but not sure how to search for old posts where l’m sure there is an answer! Does anyone know of a good site where one can search for drug interactions? Have tried the pharmacy which is okay if you can get them to answer the phone and I won’t start on problems

individual eye drop units
At last I have read the patient information leaflet properly ! It seems counterintuitive but the Thealoz Duo UD and especially the Thealoz Duo Gel are so easy to use when first shaken UPSIDE DOWN so the fluid is above the opening, then carefully remove the end plug and the medication will easily drop

Itchy tear ducts- not dry eye
Anyone? Every so often I get insanely itchy upper tear duct in my left eye, sometimes a little bit in the lower one. Occasionally the right eye too.It never makes my eyes water, feel gritty, or uncomfortable; it is specifically itchiness. Sometimes I give in and rub it, but then a cycle starts and

Never give up .
Hi all I just want to say what a brilliant site this is and seeing all the different posts with information and experiences people have had is really helpful. I had sort of given up hope of my vision returning in my left eye due to cornea damage after many procedures due to Glaucoma and Uveitis and

I have chronic myeloproliferative disease - between ET & prefibrotic myelofibrosis, on HU 500mg per day and 1000mg on Sundays, plus 75mg Aspirin. This is of course on top of all my usual pain medication. I was undiagnosed for 5years until this year in May, my high platelet levels were picked up by chance

Gallstones
Hello again 👋 Well I didn't expect this! I'm just out of A&E after a gallstone attack. Excruciating, until the morphine kicked in. I've been given strong painkillers and antibiotics. I'm a bit miffed, as I've been following a Low Fodmap, anti- inflammatory, pescatarian diet for as long as I can remember

Painkiller advice for Anagrelide headaches.
Started Anagralide 7 days ago, & took horrendous headache today. Took Solpadeine Max, & this helped, but only to be used for 3 days, & are expensive. Can my GP give me strong painkillers, or should I jut stick with Solpadeine? Would Paracetamol maybe help? Again thank you for any response.
