Barrigel and markers
This Wednesday I am scheduled to have barrigel and markers. Doctor told me to take two extra strength Tylenol an hour before the procedure as well as one Valium. Also, antibiotics. Is the one Valium enough to calm me down as I am pretty anxious about the procedure? Has anyone else who has had these?

Acalabrutinib/COVID/swollen lymph nodes under arm
Hi, I’ve been on Acalabrutinib for almost a year now. I have SLL. Everything had been going wonderfully, my lymph nodes significantly decreased in size, my 3-months follow up scan showed great results, my blood work looked normal, and the side effects were minimal. I recently noticed, however, that

Heart problems and the Covid autumn booster
Just had an interesting thought I'm below the 65 age limit for the covid autumn booster but I automatically get the flu jab each year as I have other problems. After having a heart attack last year would this qualify me for the autumn booster or not I had it last autumn but the goal post for age has

If it’s not one thing, it's another! Update
Following on from the previous post, I had my appointment with the Ophthalmology Surgical Unit yesterday. Basically appeared to be a couple of pre-op tests to take measurements of my eyes. I’ve been given a contact number to call in a day or two to find out where on the waiting list I am. Hopefully

buprenorphine -what next
I’ve been on buprenorphine for about 2 months now. I take 600 micrograms. I have also been slowly reducing from pregabalin by 25 mg every two weeks and am now on 100mg. I had nausea when I started buprenorphine but that stopped after a couple of weeks only to return. I have totally lost my appetite

post Covid setback
Does anyone have experience with b12d recovery setbacks after Covid? I am 2 months into weekly injections, and had really started so see improvements. Then Covid struck. I am 18 days post-positive test…and my leg tremors have become far more noticeable, along with a resurgence of nerve pains in my hands

Covid
I started to have cold symptoms a week ago and took a test which was negative. Felt like the worse cold ever - terrible muscle aches, cough and congestion. After a couple of days I realised I couldn’t smell anything . My daughter who is a nurse said it sounds like Covid so I tested again and this

Asthma during respiratory infections
Hi, I've been asthmatic since I was 2 years old and am now considerably older than that. Despite 45 years of experience I really don't have a good understanding of what to expect from asthma management. I use a low dose Flixotide preventer inhaler every day and salbutamol when required. Day to day you

Pneumonia/cancer
Hi I'm new to this forum but great to hear other peoples experiences. I was diagnosed with pneumonia after an x-ray. Had antibiotics and fingers crossed, not feeling too poorly. Doctor said it was a small showing on the x-ray and that no cancer concerns at all. He said I will have a follow up x-ray in

Greater susceptibility???
Read this, posted in another group: “BA.2.86 may be more capable of causing infection in people who have previously had COVID-19 or who have received COVID-19 vaccines.” Approved COVID vaccine that may make us more susceptible to the new COVID variant? Good grief!

A Fib and Covid.
Hi everyone, I am in the middle of a Covid Infection at the moment and feeling quite poorly. I haven't had an A Fib attack for ages, but am now in the middle of one that has gone on for four hours so far. My question is, have any other members found that Covid has affected their A Fib. Thank you, Jenny

Severe Lung Scarring from Pneumonia

Covid & Flu booster
Hello everyone I recently started on Benapali injections….2nd one this week so obviously can’t tell if it’s helping yet. So far only tiredness as side effect. Do I have to stop for 1 week before having the Covid and flu boosters ? Also I am due my second Shingles vaccination and trying to avoid

Time for booster
I’m wondering is it worthwhile getting a booster jab this autumn. I understand covid is still around and my understanding is it’s now milder then previous strains. I have mild asthma(do take a preventer daily), I am 51 and am sitting on the fence on booster number 5. Any thoughts, experiences, those
