My PMR is basically gone, but now I got shingles on my right side of face.
All the drugs I took, take lowers my immune system. No prednisone anymore, but Methotrexate lowers immune response. About 4 days ago, got shingles on my face and forehead. It is super pain, bad pain. Before the shingles, I felt like my eyes were infected, eyes and skin all red and sore. Pain not quite

Bad cold sore should I wait to inject Methotrexate?
I was at the dentist last Thursday - not my usual one - and she was a bit rough! She split my lip in the corner and it's came out with large cold sores which are not healing! 😔 I'm considering not injecting today to give them a better chance to heal - what do you think? They're sore and I can't eat

Hepatitis B and alcohol
I was wondering what are your views on alcohol use for people with hepatitis B. I am feeling a bit disappointed that my Dr never has discussed this with me. I try not to drink at most of the times. However, I would have a few drinks on special occasions, such as birthdays or holidays. Should I go tea

FET in 4 days and nasty cold
I am so worried now, our FET is this Thursday and some nasty cold got me this weekend. I am afraid to take any cold/flu meds so it won't mess up with my lining etc 🙈 Has anyone been not well before or during transfer and it affected the outcome?

Inhaler post pneumonia, awaiting lung scarring diagnosis?
Hi first time posting - hoping someone can help!

Methotrexate and sinus/nasal issues
I've been on MTX for a year now and over the months I keep saying I feel like I'm coming down with a cold but it doesn't happen. I get a blockage in the back of my nasal passage and that causes post nasal drip and a sore throat. I was taking sulphasalazine but have stopped that as I felt so tired on

Another cold type virus
Posted in January about respiratory virus which I recovered from about 2 weeks ago. Blow me down, I have a sore throat, runny nose, feel flat and no energy again. This is the 3rd cold/flu type bug I have had in 3 months. Is this due to suppressed immune system or overdoing it or just bad luck? @

Glandular Fever virus and PMR?
Hello everyone, Does anyone know if the Glandular Fever virus could be linked with PMR? I contracted GF and Hepatitis B of the Liver in 2005, it took me 3 years to get over it and live my life normally, I took no drugs, it really was a case of rest and gentle exercise, the Drs warned me if I didn't

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

Trelegy and pneumonia?
In April this year, I was prescribed Trelegy after an exacerbation that resulted in respiratory failure. I have read that people who are on Trelegy are a lot more likely to get pneumonia but I had the vaccination a couple of years ago so I am a little confused. Does anyone know anything about this?

Illness and taking T3 - something to consider?
just a thought I wanted to put out there and see what everyone else thinks… I am now prescribed T4 and T3 and it has been a bit of a life changer for me. Previous to the T3 being added, I was on mono T4 for years. To get out of bed and function, I had to have my T4 over range, whilst my T3 was scrapping

Recovery from pneumonia
70 YO F with bronchiectasis - I developed double pneumonia 3 months ago and completed 2 weeks of IV antibiotic treatment in hospital and at home 2 months ago. Is it normal for recovery from pneumonia to wax and wane, to be "nonlinear"? I was getting better 2 weeks ago, the fatigue was starting to lift
