History of my psoriasis
Ariund 1990, |I discovered some strange areas on my right leg. Before I knew it, It was all over my body, and to my horror in my scalp. I was soon launched into a regime of assorted creams and portions. It became part of my life to apply this medication. I didn't have the internet at the time

Thyroid Petition Debate at Scottish Parliament on Tuesday 5 Feb (tomorrow!)
This is edited and posted from an email I had from the TPA (Thyroid Patient Advocacy) although the parliament petition I believe is from individuals, with the TPA supporting them. I hope this does not contradict any guidelines by posting about another organisation. I'm not a member of their group but

Wheres the best pain clinic for internal spinal cord stimulator?
I have been all over the country going to pain clinics and neuro surgeons. I have syringomyelia which has caused lots of pain down my left leg and round the left side of my chest. I have been to top hospitals in Liverpool, Preston and London. Ideally I would want to go to a hospital in the north

Has any female with AMN had kidney problems? I was diagnosed with end stage renal failure early this year. Came out of nowhere.
I am 65 and started having AMN symptoms in my early 40's. I was diagnosed in 1998 after my second one week visit to the Mayo, first visit was in 1991 with no diagnosis. Then the very long chain fatty acid link with AMN was discovered and that is how they finally discovered what I have when I went back

Viral Meningitis- So many effects and so little answers
Hospital did a
spinal
tap
and diagnosed me, then released me the next morning. I was in bed for almost a month. Seem to get a little better/ stronger by end of July and went back to work (desk job) for 2 months only 2 days a week. Oct 6th, turning point again.

Hughes syndrome, clots & headaches
So now I have a papilliodaema which needs treating via a lumbar puncture (
spinal
tap
) which should soon relieve the pressure. I thought i'd share this. as there seems to be lots of APL sufferers who report headaches after anticoagulation. This may be the reason for some of those who suffer!

So tired all the time
They diagnosed me with Viral Meningitis via a
spinal
tap
, kept me over night and sent me home in the morning with pain killers. Prior to this happening, I was getting into shape by doing alot of walking, had quit smoking 8 months prior and was feeling pretty good.

Hello :)
I've spent ages reading the forums - didnt realise they existed until recently! I've been looking for experiences with Xolair, as I have my outpatient appointment at Papworth tomorrow and want to ask them if they will consider it for me. I have severe asthma, with allergies - which I may cope with
