nose bleed
was rushed to hospital 2weeks ago for pneumonia. Was discharged after a week. Wasn’t home 24 hrs. And out of the blue my nose started bleeding. It hasn’t stopped. Has this happened to anyone else and what did the doctors do to stop it?

Anyone recent experience Carlisle NHS endos?
As a continuation of post the other day re high HR with Long Covid: Gp wants an endo involved to give blessing to his desire to reduce my levo. My private endo who I have seen by zoom during covid is rather expensive and needs paying to get an advisory letter from ( now use Roseway Labs prescriber scheme

W1R1 again!
Here I go again. After another dose of Covid decided to start again. Determined Long Covid won’t hit again after a 21 month battle with it before. Going to take it really slowly this time. 68 in 2 weeks and would love to get back to 10k again by the time I’m 70! Any tips?

Summer COVID UK
Hiya, I have ET JAK2 and several of my friends have come down with COVID. I was wondering if anyone knew if we were eligible for free COVID tests in the UK and how to go about it ? Can we also get the anti virals if the worst comes to the worst and I do get it? I looked online and couldn't make much

Medicare won't cover Paxlovid twice within 6 months
I figured this is worth sharing - as I was shocked to have gone through this, but I found a solution worth sharing that even my pharmacist didn't know about. Yes, I think we all know by now that if you have CLL its important to get Paxlovid if you get COVID (and it really works well). I had COVID in

Post lurgy and niggles - update
Well Covid got me and the runs had to take a back seat for a while. I tried a short run the week after and it was such a puffer I had a word with myself and took another week off for recovery. When I next set out for a 20 minute session at a slow plod (I should say, even slower than usual 😀), I started

THANK YOU TO ALL RE: Covid Anti Viral Meds.
Thank you for all your helpful replies. As I had telephone appointment already scheduled I spoke to Haematologist about getting Anti viral meds. Apparently things have changed and these Covid meds cannot now be sourced through Haematology. On ringing my GP the receptionist understood right away and went

Gut problems with Pavlovid
hiya, never posted before but just seeking advice. I have GPA was diagnosed at the start of COVID. I currently take azathioprine. After avoiding it for all this time COVID finally got me and I’ve finished a course of Paxlovid. Despite some residual symptoms mainly breathing difficulties I have recovered

COVID
I have Covid! I don't recommend it -- I feel terrible. I hope it doesn't cause a flare. I am down to zero prednisone and my adrenals suddenly caught up so I was feeling normal. Still on the Kevzara, however.

Covid Update
Hi all, a quick update to my previous post. I have had a couple of days of negative tests for Covid so holiday plans are going ahead as planned (as at this time!). It's been an "interesting" few days but I am feeling a huge amount better than I was, not 100% by any means but leaps and bounds better

Covid. Do we still have to receive Antiviral medication?
I have just tested positive with Covid after Husband started with symptoms. I went onto NHS website to report it but it informs that this is no longer necessary. I wonder if we still have to request Antiviral treatment through 111 or GP. I have ET JAK2 Pos.

To share interesting experience!
Good morning my MPN family, Yesterday my husband tested positive for Covid, then I decided to take test too and was positive. After that I went to contact my MPN team and request antiviral Paxlovid medication. I was not able to get through my MPN team as I was hoping then I called 111 and as I was talking

"Oral Nirmatrelvir–Ritonavir [ Paxlovid ] as Postexposure Prophylaxis for Covid-19" -- does not do much
"... In this placebo-controlled trial, postexposure prophylaxis with nirmatrelvir-ritonavir for 5 or 10 days
did not significantly reduce the risk of symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection
." [That sort of has been the suspicion since the very beginning.] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39018532/

Probably nearing treatment -some questions
My haematologist has sent a letter to my GP that she will be asking me to meet with her in several weeks time "with a view to starting treatment given the evidence of cutaneous progression." I missed my last appointment with her because she was ill, so had a phone appointment with another of the consultants
