Cold cap advice?
Im a very lucky gal whose cancer was caught early (by accident) at stage 1c. I've had surgery and about to start chemo tomorrow. Carbopentin only. They booked me a cold cap as I was originally going to have Carbo + Taxil which usually results in hair loss. Now the risk is lower so not sure whether you'd

itch and bilirubin, long covid
1) since startin* urso I continue to have an itchy abdomen and scalp. My family dr does not think itch is related to PBC because my bilirubin is fine… I think I’m early stage. Enzymes starting to come down but the gi doc says nothing gets added or changed until we see how I do after being on it for a

Covid prior to FET with a positive outcome
Hope everyone is doing ok! I just wondered if anyone tested positive for covid the month before their FET and then had a positive result? I know it’s different for everyone but just making sure it has actually happened and if I go ahead with my FET next month I’m not starting on the back foot! (Well

immunosuppressants and Covid vaccine
I was told by my nephrologist that I should wait 3 months to get the current Covid vaccine until my immunosuppressive medication (rituximab) wears off because I won’t mount a good response if I get it now. Has anyone been told similar advice?

covid vaccination
Thankyou to everyone who replied to my previous post . Most people seem to be having the covid booster . It isn’t the initial jab that bothers me but what it’s doing long term . I had my last one in November and since then I’ve developed polymyalgia rheumatica, another auto immune disease . Who knows

Covid jab, to be or not to be
I really don't know what to think about the covid jab, i have had them all until now, but having contracted covid 4 weeks ago, and ended up feeling terrible, and even now i feel pretty dire, and it certainly heightened my depression, and so i do question if it's really worth bothering. Several people

A question on breathing, possible long-covid ?
Strange thing, and need your help, just to see if anyone else has the same symptom, so Dec 2021, came down with covid, and then had a upper respiratory infection, which lasted around 4 months. During these months, I had wheezing, and at times very bad, but there was one other symptom, which I need

Targinact
I have had RLS for over 20 years and have tried most medications, the latest being Pregabalin, which was good but is now not working so well. I therefore asked my GP if I could try Targinact as I read this is now licensed for RLS. He has agreed and I just need to taper Pregabalin. Can anyone

anxious about CAD - MRI result
Hi all, Does anyone know if a cardiac MRI would pick up coronary heart disease , or at least see some part of the arteries? I’m awaiting a CT scan with dye to look into CAD, but my consultant thinks it’s unlikely as I’m 32 , I am overweight and an ex-smoker so I do have some risk factors. My cardiac

Check your Thyroid
For about a year I’ve been struggling. Fatigue getting worse, frozen shoulder, dry mouth and eyes, aching, brain fog, palpitations. It really got worse after last years autumn Covid booster when I thought I was having a heart attack. Heart all checked out fine. So I talked to my consultant at my clinic
