Pegasys --> Besremi and HCT
Hi, What a great forum - thanks to you all for contributing. I'm a 37 year old male - diagnosed with PV 3 years ago. I recently made the jump from Pegasys to Besremi. I was on 135ug every 9 days without need of supporting venesection (at least for the last 8 months or so). Since switching medication

stopping aspirin temporarily
hi. I’m suffering from really bad sciatica. The orthopaedic surgeon wants to give me a branch block steroid injection (whatever that is) but only if I can come off aspirin (75mg) for a few days. This is because he’s afraid I might bleed into the sciatic nerve, which could be disastrous. I’m seeing my

tetanus booster and Covid vaccine
Hello I had a tetanus booster yesterday and I asked my GP if it was ok to get Covid vaccine next Thursday. He said he didn’t know and to check with primary care. When I saw the nurse she said it’s fine as both are inactivated. Does anyone know about this ? I tried finding out but haven’t managed to

Wary of covid autumn booster
Hi, You can read from my profile that I am aware that there COULD be a link between the Pfizer jab (Comirnaty) that I had in November 2021 and the onset of PMR soon after. I had had two AstraZenica jabs prior to this earlier in 2021 with no adverse effects whatsoever. While on 6mg prednisolone, in

Should I have a Covid booster?
Hi, I’m new to posting on this forum though I regularly read everything posted. I have been very grateful for what I have learned about AFib since it is not easy to find practical information about living with the condition. I am 99.9% certain my AFib was caused by the Pfizer covid vaccine and the electrophysiologist

just need a friend
hi everyone. based on my last posts you know I’ve been working on my anxiety. I recently did an IOP group which I found so helpful.

One Covid/Afib connection
I tested positive for Covid last week, and I was awakened the next night by a strong coughing attack for a few seconds that made me unable to catch my breath. My heart apparently responded the way its does to sleep apnea and jumped into arrhythmia before I could calm it with some deep nose breaths. This

OAB Fluid intake important
Hi. Thanks for sharing your story. I’d like to add or expand here about fluid intake. I’ve just stopped the solifenacin after only a few weeks as I’ve developed breathing issues and hot clammy forehead I was still getting up 3-4 times a night which was an improvement on 6-7 times My Urology Consultant
