Imnusupressants Post Transplant
Hello,Im wondering how this whole suppressed immune system works? My husband and I have got covid (6 weeks post TP for him). The whole household has pretty much had it all at the same time, but how will hubbys recovery differ? Is he less likely to recover as quick, more prone to secondary infection

Tacrolimus vs cyclosporin
Hi, I am currently working with my rheumatologist to plan for second pregnancy. My daughter is 3.5 years old and I was on tacrolimus during my pregnancy (I usually take MMF). I remained relatively well and stable throughout but there were alot of issues with maintaining the tacrolimus concentration

Good News!!!
My dr. approved the buprenorphine for me. I am thinking positive that it will work. She is giving me the patch. I am excited. I have to discontinue the horizant though which surprised me and of course discontinue the oxycodone. Hopefully now you won't have to listen to me complaining and I will

itching
I had a transplant 18 months ago and 6 days ago the hospital reduced my Tacrolimus and increased my Prednisolone to improve my kidney function (although it was no worse than it has been since the transplant). I’m gradually increasing the Tac and decreasing the Prednisolone but today lve started itching

Sigmoid colon stuck to small bowel due to endometrial scarring.
Hi all. I'm 5 years post hysterectomy due to stage 4 endometriosis and adenomyosis leaving ovaries.

Long story short, after a mri scan to check endo hadn't returned, it appears that my

GP visit
Hi there. I've had PMR/GCA for 10 years which once diagnosed was reasonably managed until 2018 when having tapered to 3.5 mgs, I was told to stop Pred within a fortnight by my rheumatologist who was confident it had gone. The resulting flare was worse even than the initial onset and after a good deal

FND and hormones
Hiya everyone, I was diagnosed with FND in 2021, my symptoms started in 2018 after many stressful life events. I’ve noticed my symptoms get worse just before my period. I’m perimenopausal so I started HRT (oestrogen gel and progesterone oral capsules). The progesterone seemed to cause a massive relapse

Tibolone or sequential hrt?
I had a hysterectomy 5 months ago for Adenomyosis/fibroids. They now think I have Endometriosis as my pain has flared up since starting hrt. I'm on Tibolone but I'm still in so much pain. Has anyone had experience of this and have they found sequential hrt better? I don't think the Tibolone is strong

breast pain
I’m currently off work, waiting on spine surgery since last October, but the last few months I’ve been getting pain in my left boob. I don’t know if it to do with my back, or if it’s manopause, HRT. Some days it’s quite bad, then another day nothing. But it’s there, more than it’s not. I don’t want

Back home & overthinking
After 12 days in hospital I am back home. I now have to wear morphine patches, (butec), take oramorph, cyclizine and various other medication. I've started my prostap injections so I'm mindful of monitoring my mood. I take HRT gel and tablets. It's a drain. So I decided not to to with the emergency

Introduction and help navigating our NHS for Thyroid hormone replacement. Tips and support needed as it's a very tricky business.
Hi everyone. Been on my autoimmune thyroid journey for a few years now, was on 125mcg teva for a while, this dose almost suppressed the tsh, lowest was 0.003, it did however rise to 0.03. Gp reduced dose to 100mcg and TSH has now risen to 2.1. However (my bio gives loads of symptoms) I'm feeling steadily

A bit shell shocked by Hysterectomy recommendation
I was originally diagnosed with Endo in 2007 after a diagnostic laparoscopy. In 2015 my symptoms started to rear up again but I kept putting off going to see someone. Last year the heavy bleeding and pain got so bad I went private to see someone and had a further laparoscopy in December 2023. During
