Dentist and antibiotics?
Hi - I have a question regarding dentist/hygienist and the need to take antibiotics afterwards (newly diagnosed with ET/JAK2 and still bringing down platelets with Hydroxy). My haematology team recommend antibiotics after any major work, and for the dentist/hygienist not to use too much pressure. The

MODERNA SPIKEVAX (2022) COVID Vaccine Availability Autumn 2023 Uk
Hi all, As anyone had a Moderna COVID vaccine (2022 version Bivalent Spikevax) this autumn in the UK, I have a clinical need to avoid Pfizer and that is all that is being sent out at present. I have been in touch with UKHSA, NHS England, local Vaccine authority, Haematologist and GP without any joy.

covid vaccine
My Hematologist suggested I not take the flu or covid vaccine. She is concerned it will trigger another episode of low platelets. I had been in remission for 15 months last year and I thought I had beaten ITP. I got the vaccines last year then about 2 months later my platelets were back down to 1.

Not what I expected!
After feeling unwell, I’ve had a lousy night, tested in the early hours and have Covid! Had the booster 12 days ago and the flu jab on Saturday. it’s Sod’s Law , I was going to say a flare and low adrenal function feels like Covid with Mumps . Hopefully i can get antivirals , they wouldn’t give them

Scared my AFib will come back due to very nasty cough.
i had an Ablation in September and have developed this horrendous cough, that’s causing me to nearly throw up. My AFib started in 2014, when I had a nasty coughing virus, so I’m scared this coughing virus will bring it back. This one seems much worse. Has anyone else had this horrible cough. ? Any tips

Hanging on
Remarkably mum is still hanging on through sheer grit we think.She's very weak and frail, had another couple of falls. Been in hospital with pneumonia before xmas and had pneumonia again 2 weeks ago. The care home are great but the frustration is the loss of speech for over 2 years now, no way to communicate

Hello, I have just been in hospital for a week with a bad case of pneumonia, which came out of nowhere. I am only 44 and have no history of respiratory problems. The CT scan also showed mild bronchiectasis, which I am now finding out lots more about thanks to forums like this.I am now being bombarded

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
