I am a little concerned that it's Kenalog, which I thought was banned in UK. Although I am desperate to get rid of the

How can I help my intubated father in ICU?
I am desperately frightened as my father is fighting for his life, he has septic shock due to a liver abscess which has resulted in complications to his kidneys, brain and liver. Yesterday I saw him and he was so sleepy he could barely open his eyes and speak, although he was able to tell me he was in

Post Covid for a Cllier
Came down with Covid 7 days ago - like a horrid bout of flu. Managed to get anti virals sent by the hospital on the second day at 10pm- great service Chelsea and Westminster hospital. Now tested negative yesterday but still got heavy cold and sore throat and feel weak. When will it go away??

A reply to Wasabigirl’s post about PID (?) which has since been deleted
You could ask for an MRI of the lower pelvis and muscles there. A sonogram generally cant see those areas (nor a laparoscopy or laparotomy) and pain in those areas can refer to the groin. I had an infection and was only treated with tetracycline for 5 days (many years ago). Then the terrible burning

CGA and urogram
Hi All good advisers. Have been on pred for CGA since July 2023, starting at 60mg. now at 12 mg with very slow taper. I am having a kidney urogram this April. I am also on metformin 3 x daily 500 mg. I have read that I should stop taking metformin before this procedure. How many days before should

Covid
Has anyone had Covid recently and found it’s hit them much harder than previous bouts? I’m wondering if it’s because it’s been a year since I was last vaccinated? Currently 2 weeks in, on steroids and think I probably have a chest infection too!

After 25 years they have stopped my B12 - what can I do?

A few days later rang me to come to the surgery immediately where he injected B12 himself. Apparently I had dangerously low levels of B12 that indicated I
