Hi Im hoping for some guidance. I have Graves’ disease treated with radio iodine 23 years ago. Since then I’ve managed on 125 mg levo. A year ago I got Covid and went from being extremely fit and active to struggling with low energy. I have long Covid. On top of this my GP said my blood tests showed

Repeated infection.
Here I am another chest infection. Back on amoxicillin and prednisone. How much longer can I go on. This time as always it's due to covid. I must have picked up every variant since this wretched virus began. I also have long covid and only one lung. Virtually housebound now. It's only amoxicillin keeping

Nerve root block?
One of the options to treat my now diagnosed spinal stenosis and sciatica is a steroid injection. Is there any contraindication being on 2 mg pred? Any experience of this injection?

My husband has Covid
Well, gang, after four and a half years of avoiding the dreaded plague, my hubby got a scratchy throat and a little cough...and tested positive for Covid. I called the doctor and got him some Paxlovid right away (within 36 hours of first symptoms, so that's something.) He hasn't gotten the updated vaccination

Autumn booster Covid vaccine
hi Does anyone know which vaccines will be offered in the Autumn for Covid. I want to make sure is not last years stock and therefore would not protect against the new variants. Thank you .

Covid, Paxlovid and vomiting
Hello all. I tested positive for Covid, got prescribed Paxlovid and it's causing vomiting. Obviously a big problem with my other lupus meds. I've contacted the doctor but was wondering what your experiences were? Carry on taking or desist? Thanks!

Vaccinations and prednisone
I know that there is concern about whether or not to take the COVID-19 vaccine. My experience has been good. Yesterday, having an appointment to get both COVID and flu shots, I took 10mg of prednisone after breakfast (I have tapered to 4.5). I got the shots, had no pain or sensitivity afterwards, and

My PT.
I was interested to read all your posts about your experience with the big T! In the beginning I researched it until I was blue in the face! My GP - a newbie - was quite happy to tell me that in some cases catastrophic outcomes 'could' occur as a result of PT....I won't go into it, but I spent weeks

Covid vaccine and Prednisone
I plan on getting the fall Covid vaccine soon. Should I adjust my dosage (37.5 mg. for GCA and PMR), or continue as is? I know this has been addressed before on the forum, but I can't seem to find it using the search button. Perhaps I need a refresher on how to use this website. I know this has also

Covid/flu vac.
I’ve just been recalled by GP for Covid/flu vac. Coincidentally I’ve just had Covid so I know I need to wait 6~8 weeks before booking appointment. This will be my fist vac since contracting PMR diagnosed in May this year. Is there anything I should be aware of? I assume I should still have the Vac?

Tinnitus - where did it originate from?
Hi there! Have seen various posts lately on where members thought theirs had originated from . Mine is fairly straight forward. Last Autumn I had the Flu jab and the latest Covid jab at the same time. Tinnitus started within two days. The ENT Consultant at my hospital says there is empirical evidence

Allergy masks?
Hi all, hope everyone is okay. I know there was a lot of debate during covid about mask wearing and it is still a very individual thing but I’m seeking some advice. I have worn 3 layer tight cotton weave masks since covid because I can’t wear the disposable ones (tried several types and broke out
