Asthma suddenly worse after 30 years of being well
Hello everyone and happy new year, I'm hoping to get some advice. I had bad asthma in childhood but it's been well controlled with a preventative inhaler since my teens, with only occasional use of my blue ventolin puffer. I'm 51 now and caught a bad cold at the start of December (despite a flu jab

BCG success
Hi nice to have some good news for once, after my Husband finished the last of 3 sessions by 6 treatments the last biopsy showed that he was clear of his BC Cancer, It was wonderful news for Christmas. The report did say however that he still has a few polyps that were not cancerous but could become

Confused by what nurse told me
After years of wheezing and then struggling to breath I was told I had Asthma, but the inhalers had little effect. I moved doctors and when I asked about a program for my Asthma I was sent to the practice's nurse. I had several tests and then more tests a couple of months later, I had to blow in to a

Stopped T3 - feel dreadful!
Hi everyone! I'm after a bit of advice. I went to see an endocrinologist a few weeks ago and my T3 level was pretty high (I've been self-sourcing after another private doctor told me a couple of years ago my levels were 'disastrous'). The endo suggested that I stopped T3 and just carried on with the

Flu jab
I was meant to have the flu jab a couple of weeks back and I didn't. I had it last year the day before Christmas Eve and felt so ill. Even putting the pressies round the tree the next day brought me out in a sweat...and I felt fluey all over Christmas which obviously spoilt it a bit with fibro on top

Do undertreated Thyroids make things like flu and colds worse do you think
So I’ve had the flu, no I don’t mean cold, I mean flat out in bed for a fortnight unable to move feeling like death flu. The other half has said that they have never seen me look so ill even after I had my appendix out, Mind you the fact that my TSH is 58 at the moment I don’t suppose is helping, yes

Flu jab.
Yesterday I had my fourth cycle of chemo and avastin. I was advised by the chemo nurse to get a flu jab. I phoned my doctors surgery this morning and they said they're so sorry but I'm not eligible. I need to get it done at a chemists. It's not the money I'm bothered about but the principle. Surely

Flu jab?
Hi, I was just wondering what people's opinion/experience with having the flu vaccination was? I am offered it for free at work, but as person with fibromyalgia I am worried this could cause problems opposed to helping! What do people think?

Low Platelets
I just got back from my visit to MD Anderson and had a platelet count of 89. My last readings from about 4 months ago were 166. I was very shocked by how low these levels were. Dr Keating was not worried about this at all. He said it could be from having a cold which I had a couple weeks ago or from

How to prevent chest infections?
I am a 67 year old W and W er in the UK possibly looking at some form of treatment next year. I am otherwise fit with no other symptoms other than every time I get a cold it almost inevitably ends up with me at the GP getting antibiotics to combat a chest infection. I know my immune system is compromised

Starting methotrexate
So I had my 6 month check up with the rheumy today. She's totally lost knowing what to do with me - I've had to come off plaquenil again as it's just making me so sick and such bad stomach acid I just can't cope with it. All of the other treatments we've tried I seem to react to - which we now know is
