Cold cap advice?
Im a very lucky gal whose cancer was caught early (by accident) at stage 1c. I've had surgery and about to start chemo tomorrow. Carbopentin only. They booked me a cold cap as I was originally going to have Carbo + Taxil which usually results in hair loss. Now the risk is lower so not sure whether you'd

Pneumonia
It turns out that I thought my extreme fatigue was due to having tapered to 4 mg, that I have pneumonia. So I have been on an antibiotic for two days and am much better. I had a cough but no fever but it was not improving so finally my dr did a chest xray. He told me to stay at 4 mg for the rest of

Cough after embryo transfer
Hi All, I had my 6th embryo transfer yesterday and this time I’m being treated with an immune protocol including steroids and other drugs. I’ve managed to pick up a cough and it seems worse after the transfer. Has anyone experienced a cough/cold after transfer and had any successes please? I don’t have

The problem I have is every time I’m ill i’ll pass out multiple times a day. Most recently I have a cough/cold virus not nice but also nothing serious

4dp5dt and have cold/flu
so I’m just being majorly paranoid and looking for reassurance as yesterday I started developing a cold that seems more like the flu now. Now just overthinking things being like it definitely won’t work now 😳 anyone else managed to get a positive despite this happening or got any stories of reassurance

Scared my AFib will come back due to very nasty cough.
i had an Ablation in September and have developed this horrendous cough, that’s causing me to nearly throw up. My AFib started in 2014, when I had a nasty coughing virus, so I’m scared this coughing virus will bring it back. This one seems much worse. Has anyone else had this horrible cough. ? Any tips

Hanging on
Remarkably mum is still hanging on through sheer grit we think.She's very weak and frail, had another couple of falls. Been in hospital with pneumonia before xmas and had pneumonia again 2 weeks ago. The care home are great but the frustration is the loss of speech for over 2 years now, no way to communicate

Thoughts on Lignosus
Hello, I have just been in hospital for a week with a bad case of pneumonia, which came out of nowhere. I am only 44 and have no history of respiratory problems. The CT scan also showed mild bronchiectasis, which I am now finding out lots more about thanks to forums like this.I am now being bombarded

Sharing my experience of having the flu with Parkinson's...

Pneumonia and Pleurisy- pain
Hi. I'm new here. I haven't been well since before Christmas. Initially I had a bit of a sore throat which I thought then turned into a virus- cough and sinus symptoms, shivers etc. A fortnight ago I felt pain in my chest- centre and at left hand side along ribs and behind breastbone area. Also at

Having a cold whilst stimming
Hi everyone, hope you're all well. I'm on day 10 of stims and just getting over a cold. Has anyone been ill during it and still gone on to have a good number of eggs collected and the quality being good too? Does being ill have an affect? Thanks.
