My dad graduated from ICU today! Severe Pneumonia
Hello, Everyone: I have posted here about my dad who is in his late 70s. At the end of August, he was admitted to the hospital to remove a small benign cyst from his throat and two days after the surgery, he choked on water and yogurt that were served and developed aspirational pneumonia. Since it

P.AFib and Covid
no doubt this question has been answered a few times but since showing positive with Covid this morning I have had two episodes close together which is unusual. Should I just go with them until my Covid test is negative and then see what happens? All your experiences will help me decide. Thank you.

unsure
thank you all for your responses on my last post. I am feeling better, but still congested. My boyfriend wants to come over but I’m so fearful I’ll get him sick, or that I actually have Covid and I’ll give it to him. I could go buy more Covid tests, but my friends told me that I shouldn’t because then

My Grim anniversary, Vaccine Type and Timing
With multiple fall vaccines now in use it seems timely to share our experience and advice on the timing of them. This has been discussed briefly in various threads. I invite comments on the below: In the past there was just an annual flu shot and its timing was just "sometime in the fall". No other

4dp5dt and have cold/flu
so I’m just being majorly paranoid and looking for reassurance as yesterday I started developing a cold that seems more like the flu now. Now just overthinking things being like it definitely won’t work now 😳 anyone else managed to get a positive despite this happening or got any stories of reassurance

Being taking off Pegasys. :( Looking for alternatives
Hi all, I have ET & PV with Jak2. I am 40. I have been on aspirin for over 10 years, but had to start Pegasys 3 months ago. I haven't tolerated it well. Severe shortness of breath etc. My hematologist reduced my dose to 30 per week, but I am suffering with hypertension (150 to 69/96 on average) and

covid?
I was really congested so I took a Covid test. Unsure if there’s a faint line in the first picture. I took another test and was negative. I’m supposed to see my boyfriend but I’m so worried. I don’t think I can handle isolation again. Do you see a faint line in the first test?

prednisone and antibiotics
Has anyone had a problem with antibiotics wiping out prednisone. Was down to 2.5-lowest in 8 years. Took antibiotics (Bactrim) and all old PMR symptoms came back. Hurt all over. Read Bactrim and Cipro are quinolones and do not work well with Steroids. Neither Dr or pharmacist knew this. Not sure how

flu and covid booster
I had several texts from the NHS inviting me for both flu and covid shots due to my medical condition. My only condition is AF. I booked in with my local pharmacy today, but he would not give me the booster as I am now on Flecanide and he said under new guidelines it is not recommended. I am very confused
