Can I swim in sea in uk summer while pregnant? (Cold water minimum 15 oC - max 18 oC)
Hello All, I am 27 weeks pregnant - IVF pregnancy with no hiccups so far touch wood. I am going to Cornwall on Friday for my Summer holiday and usully enjoy a swim in the sea there in the little bay, not miles from shore, in my wet suit. The water is cold even in Summer but not freezing obviously.

As some of you know who have been active in my recent posts, I started seeing an Immunologist a few weeks ago. She encouraged me to get the third shot, and began blood tests different from what our CLL Specialists give us. I had the first Pneumonia vaccine shot sometime earlier this year, or maybe

Starving the bacterium that causes pneumonia
The invitations, decorations, candles and the cake – there’s a lot to remember when you organise a birthday party for a five-year-old. One thing we thankfully take for granted in Australia is that our five-year-olds reach this milestone at all. But close to half a million children infected worldwide

What dosage of calcium supplement is recommended when on prednisolone?
I'm on 7.5mg of prednisolone. At my rheumatologists appointment today I advised him that I wouldn't be taking up his recommendation of Alendronic Acid despite having a very small amount of osteoporosis in my lower lumber region. I advised him that I was taking Caltrate which has 600mg calcium/200 IU

Cough linked to Aledronic Acid?
I have been taking 70 mg Aledronic since September. Recently I have developed a slight cough . I also take Omeprazole for heartburn due to a hiatus hernia. Has anyone experienced a cough and a feeling of wheezing?

RSV: what is it, and why are child cases surging in the wake of COVID?
Hospitals in the UK are seeing a rise in children suffering from severe respiratory infections. This includes an unseasonal surge in an infection called the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), in children as young as two months old.

Health outcomes differ between UK and US children with cystic fibrosis.
Most people with CF die prematurely from their disease through

Chest cold
Hey All, Me again looking for advice about my Mum who has COPD. Any recommendations on how to tackle a chest cold please? She is on blood pressure meds, so all of the Lemsip products we have are unsuitable! So scared about this developing into anything worse - don’t seem to be able to get her fully

How did I catch a cold in lockdown?
More than half of Australia is in lockdown in an effort to stem the current Delta strain COVID outbreak, with vast numbers of us steering clear of workplaces, school, retail shops, public transport and other busy places. If, despite all that, you or your children have developed a sniffle, tested negative
