My story
Hi, it all started by going into hospital for day surgery for Hemorrhoids. Within 36 hours my wife had taken me back to A & E with a high heart rate and low blood pressure. I was also in a lot of pain, which I put down to the surgery for Hemorrhoids. I was soon in majors and within a few hours I was

Greater use of Benlysta, Saphnelo seen in US, EU to treat lupus
Goal to reduce long-term glucocorticoids use to prevent side effects
In both the U.S. and Europe, clinicians want to limit treatment with glucocorticoids — steroid hormones whose long-term use for autoimmune diseases is tied to serious side effects — among people with moderate to severe lupus

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

Sharing my experience of having the flu with Parkinson's...
Hi everyone. I just wanted to share my experience of combining a severe flu with my Parkinson's symptoms. I've had Parkinson's for six years and I'm generally doing relatively well. But recently, I caught a severe flu while traveling in Italy with my wife and it made my symptoms much worse, with massive

Flare up after ear infection
I've had ear infection which the doctor gave me antibiotic spray for, thankfully ear pain had gone after a few days, but left with jaw pain, headaches and extreme exhaustion, as soon as I feel a little better I feel I have the energy to do a little bit, then I'm straight down again after the slightest

Pessaries versus injections
Hi there on my last icsi cycle I tried the injections instead of the pessaries and felt they worked better. We are due to try our third and probably last cycle of icsi at the end this month and the doctor has prescribed pessaries again. I advised I’d had injections last time and found them better and

Pituitary gland not producing TSH
Oct 14, 2022 I had a 3rd Covid Booster shot. The next day I had the "normal" flu symptoms. Oct 20, six days later, I felt I had been hit by a bus, hurting literally from head to toe with different kinds of pain along with heartburn and leg swelling. I figured this was just a reaction that would subside

Anyone had hand therapy for Chronic repetitive strain injury of the wrists?
My question is has anyone ever had hand therapy for chronic tendonitis or like a chronic repetitive strain injury in your wrist? And if so did it help with the pain? This is the only thing that I've not tried besides obviously I've not tried surgery and I asked my orthopedic hand dr about it and he doesn't
