Panic (in the streets of Birmingham)
Couldn’t resist this allusion to a song by the Smiths and I do live in Birmingham (not Alabama!). I was surprised when asking for a search to be done on our site how few posts there were with Panic in the title. I’m panicking quite a lot recently due to obvious progression of the disease. I’m panicking

Shingles vaccine to have or not to have
My rheumie has recommended that I have the shingles jab. and informed the vaccination centre. A lady from there phoned me regarding this and I said I would prefer the non-live vaccine as opposed to the live one. She said that I could not choose as the nurse would decide after seeing me. I was diagnosed

DBS Surgery #2, a personal essay

Lumbar injection after shingles CLL
Hi everyone, I had shingles six months ago, leaving me with nerve problems in my left leg. I have received an appointment for a lumbar puncture which has left me a bit worried, is this because they think something is going on with the CLL in my spine? I can't ask the specialist as I have no follow-up

I saw my first neuro after over five years
Today I saw the MDD who diagnosed me in august 2017. Before him I saw other doctors who could not figure what I had. So after over five years I saw him again. That time my score was 17 and today 23. He was surprised to find out my progression was very small. I told him I think the Thiamine helped me

Coping with heat
I need your advice my friends. We live in the north of England and rarely get a heatwave but this summer we had 2 and my HWP, who is in his 29th year of diagnosis, really suffered. I looked on HU and saw this can be a problen in PD. I told him what I had read and dealt with it with fans and cold packs

Normal Meds: is this it?!
I say normal because up until recently I’ve used a cocktail of normal (Rasagaline, Requip and Madopar) alongside Mucuna. The Mucuna was my go to stuff if I needed an immediate lift as it worked so quickly. But I promised my neuro that I’d leave it out: it’s difficult to measure and rationalise when he

Is it possible to have a flare up of PMR without a change in predisolone dosage?
I have had PMR for over 2 years & I'm currently on 12mg of Pred. I have seen a Rheumatologist & started Methotrexate on 15th September10mg once a week but I have not started reducing the Pred yet. For the last 4-5 days I have been feeling cold, tired & aching all over & feel like I've got the flu.

DBS for OCD?
Hi - I suffer from OCD, but I am also a physician. I'm looking to interview patients who have gotten DBS for OCD to better understand what the experience is like, and to be able to better describe it to the medical community. If you've gotten DBS for OCD and are willing to talk anonymously about it,

How did we arrive at Disease?
I’ve often wondered how I ended up with Parkinson’s. Well the advent of Cov-vid may have inadvertently shed a light on this question. I began reading anecdotal reports, and articles saying that some people getting the cov-vid shot were experiencing a metallic taste in their mouth immediately following

shingles question
Hi, just wondered how dangerous it would be to if I were to come into contact with someone with shingles? My disabled daughter who lives in supported living has shingles and I’m due to see her soon. I’m now on 6mg prednisone- am I less compromised as it’s a lower dose? Thanks

Tetanus shot?? Any interactions with Imbruvica?
My husband got a tetanus shot because he was cut with something rusty and hadn't had one in at least 10 years. I haven't had one either, but if I do get cut, or otherwise need one, am I able to get it without a reaction because of CLL or Imbruvica???? Googled it but I didn't get any good results.
