Asthma not well controlled
I'm worried that my asthma is not well controlled, I'm on highest dose of Fostair which was switched from Flutiform earlier this year as my Asthma nurse believed I needed a higher dose of steroid to control my asthma as I frequently need Steroids. I also have Spiriva, Carbocisteine and Montelukast but

reoccurring thrush on dienogest
Hello everyone, just thought I’d ask for some advice as I’m struggling with reoccurring thrush at the moment and although that doesn’t sound awful, on top of all the other pain it’s the last thing I want. Little bit of back story, I was diagnosed with endo last year. Had a laparoscopy and ablation

Shingles following AF
hi folks - seen a few posts recently about shingles and wondered about my own experience and if anyone had the same. I had an episode of AF in February which lasted 5.5hrs HR up to 182, next day a rash appeared on my collarbone and it turned out to be shingles. Cardiologist said it’s quite possible that

Famotidine
I have been on 20mg of Famotidine for about a year, over the past 6 months while taking Famotidine I seem to have developed heartburn has any one else suffered with heartburn while on Famotidine? I was on Omeprazole previously for nearly 3 years without any problems but a blood test revealed low sodium

Feeling despondent
Hi I last posted when I was waiting for my first biologic Imraldi which turned out to be Hyrimoz another bio similar. Before getting my first biologic injection on 7th June, rheumatology did in fact give me another steroid injection 80mg in the bum 19 days previously ! That eased thing’s slightly

Shingles vaccine and atrial fibrillation
Hi, My GP is recommending shingles vaccine. I am just concerned if it will cause atrial fibrillation. Any one had shingles vaccines with no adverse effects like atrial fibrillationThanks Padma

Shingles
I posted over 9 weeks ago about my shingles outbreak. I still have horrible pain and can't stand clothing even to touch me. I have had 2 epidurals for the pain and they didn't even help at all. Someone wrote back and said that they had shingles since last December and I couldn't find the post. If you

Next instalment. I thought I`d better do this now before I start working.
In fact, I don't remember ever seeing my dad drunk, except for one occasion when he had had, perhaps, an excess of drink. We were on a family holiday in Ireland, in a horse drawn caravan, which in itself was an experience, especially for the horse as we had no prior experience whatsoever of the care
