Hi, I’ve just joined as I’m currently under investigation for EDS, but we are unsure what type. I have a rheumatologist appointment on Tuesday and it seems it is with a really good Dr, he is also a medical director or something fancy like that. I’m just wondering what may happen? My GP completely

Preventing colds??
Hi all, yesterday I felt I was getting a cold, today I am not so sure, thank goodness. These days I dread them. I don’t take things like vitamin c or zink and such, but maybe I have got that wrong and it is worth doing? Obviously I do my best to avoid getting colds. What do the rest of you do? I welcome

Spinal cord stimulation process
I finally have an appointment to meet with a member of the Neuromodular team at SGH on Monday. I just wondered if anyone could advise me how long I will have to wait to have a trial if they assess me a suitable candidate?

Higher the ANA more likely it’s Lupus?
I have gone from being treated for Lyme disease to being referred to a Rheumatologist because my ANA is 1:1280. When i’ve read up about Lupus it’s such a strong possibility. With a level this high is it more likely to be Lupus? Anyone else with ANA at this level i’d be interested in your stories. Thank

Food Reaction Tests
My early symptoms for what they were are in remission. I still have a swollen finger, but the generalised pain has gone. My ankles and knees are occasionally a bit achy, but my stiff hands in the morning have gone away. I can drive without discomfort and don't have to remove my shoes in the office.

White tongue
Hi I am on Humira and Metoject. 2 weeks ago I'd the flu jab ever since my IBS is bad and my mouth is covered inside my lips with cold sores, so I looked inside and to my horror my tongue was heavily coated in yellowy white and mouth ulcers. Rheumy nurse said buy nysatin but does it work and what will

Taking cod liver oil and fish oil
Hi, my name is Scott Hughes. I was hoping someone could help me answer a question that is bugging me. I have ordered a packet of omega-3 fish oil capsules and a packet of cod liver oil.
