Sinusitis side effect with Atrovent and Spiriva
Hi, after a flare up of asthma I was given Atrovent in addition to my Fostair, prednisolone, antibiotics (I had a raised temperature) and anti histamine. After a few days I developed sinus symptoms (which I’ve had on and off for years). I feel awful whenever I get this, not intense pain, but a pressure

A bad cold or a flare?
I was diagnosed in May 2019 with PMR and GCA. I was started on 40mg of pred and am currently on 7mg after a bit of a struggle coming down from 8mg. I have had a really bad cold for nine days- a present from my granddaughter. On day 3 I couldn’t do a thing. Total fatigue. Then the following 3 days just

A strange question?
I have a cold sensation going down my left leg, only my left leg. It’s driving me mad. It’s there all the time, particularly bad when exercising. It runs down the outside of my leg. It feels like my jeans are damp or I’m sitting in a draught. It’s even there when I’m in bed, it’s like icy cold but when

I have Pleurisy and feel dizzy all of the time
1 month ago I explained to my doctor that I had a hacking dry cough for several months that was getting worse. I also had a tightness in my chest, but I do have mild stable Angina. He arranged an x-ray. When I had the x ray they asked me to stay at the hospital. They drained two litres of clear, urine

I’m freaking out that having a cold could affect things. Any advice, words to calm , previous experience of this would be hugely appreciated. Thank

Gazyva reaction
Had my first 2 gazyva infusions last Thursday and Friday. Had a brief infusion reaction both days which resolved. Now 4 days later have muscle aches like the flu. Already had my flu shot and don’t have any other symptoms. My Oncologist says that you can get muscle aches from the Gazyva. Has anyone

Long covid and cognitive problems
I've been home after having covid pneumonia and bring in CCU since 30th December. My vitamin D was in my boots, that's now sorted. I'm really struggling with the cognitive side, I can't think of words or phrases, forget things, I've ordered things that are wrong and the list goes on.... Has anyone else

Covid symptoms
Long covid symptoms seem to be the same as I am suffering from 6 years after sepsis and pneumonia is there a connection can anyone help. I think it is more to do with being put into a coma than the infection is this a possibility

Positive for the LRRK2 gene
I am positive for the LRRK2 gene. My father has pd and so did his Dad, as well as my mother’s Mom. I have two girls and 3 sisters. This news can be a curse or a blessing. If you have any words of wisdom I would really appreciate hearing them
