Everlasting Cold
I am on day 20 of this cold that just doesn’t seem to go away. Not Covid, grateful for that but the amount of mucus I produce is never ending. Not running a fever but just tired of the congestion and coughing. Is there any use in seeing my doctor considering I am probably just dealing with an ordinary

Hi Once again looking for a little guidance please. I’m currently on 8mg a day using DSNS method of tapering and ok so far.

PAF well controlled till I got covid
hi, I’m new to this forum and hope you can give me some hope. I’ve had PAF for 13 years, well controlled on propranolol 80mg slow release - other beta blockers seem to affect my chest/throat and give me dreadful indigestion and can’t tolerate the newer ones. However in November whilst on holiday in

On Venetoclax, lymph node appeared
Trying not to worry but a lymph node in my armpit swelled up. I feel fine, no colds, fevers or recent vaccinations. Even did a Covid test because I have had Covid totally asymptomatic but negative. Has anyone have this happen and it turned out to be nothing. Hoping this is just a fluke but it seems

Covid 19 vaccine UK
Hi there, I’d welcome any information you have on eligibility for Covid 19 vaccination in the U.K. I’ve looked at the .gov.uk website and in one place it includes epilepsy under neurological conditions, in another place it doesn’t. I did have an in invitation from my GP for flu, but not for Covid.

cellulitis
I’ve been diagnosed today with cellulitis - never had it before and knew nothing about it so it’s all been a bit of a shock. I’ve been prescribed Flucloxacillin but unfortunately, by the time I was discharged from Urgent Care, the hospital pharmacy was closed so I can’t start them until the morning

Thrush 3 days before FET
Hi everyone, I am booked for a natural FET on Monday (I didn't take anything this cycle, not even progesterone) and the Friday before I discovered that my discharge looked like cottage cheese and I may be getting thrush. Which I haven't had in years! Has this happened to anyone else before their FET

Keep getting chest infections
hello I had open heart surgery in June to repair my mitral valve. The surgery was a great success, I’ve recovered well and I am back to working full time. However, whereas before surgery I very rarely got Ill , I now seem to pick up every big going 🤦🏻♀️ And end up quite poorly. I am on statins and

Anyone find cold plunge or sauna helpful?
I'm six weeks in on ADT. Working to stay ahead of fatigue with resistance training and weighted vest walking as I gear up for radiation and chemo in the next few months. Anyone done any cold plunge or sauna to help battle side effects or get better sleep? What was your experience?

Covid day four....U.K
Hi all. This sounds so stupid but I thought it was a regular cold. Just did a COVID test and it's positive. I think it maybe too late to access antivirals now? What should I do? Sorry, just a bit panicked. Thank you in advance.

Thrush but not a bird
I have been given the wrong dose of my inhaler for Asthma. Now have to use two puffs instead of one to obtain the same amount. Will this increase my sore throat and oral thrush burden ? It is something I struggle with. Nothing to be done until Monday. Any advice would be welcome.

Anyone here with cervical arthritis?
I recently found out that the pains I've been having in my neck, shoulders and arms is arthritis. Specifically c4-c5, c6-c7. I don't want ibuprofen, Tylenol isn't working and I'm allergic to sulfa drugs; I'm kinda concerned about all the drugs, but need something to help so I can continue to work. I
