Recovering after hospital stay
I’m wondering if anyone can tell me what to expect next. I had Covid at the end of January. I felt very flu like for a couple of days then okay for a few days. After that I got a cold and a chesty cough. The cough was only occasional. At the end of last week I started to feel flu like again. I decided

Prepping for a frozen cycle
Hello all Could I please ask whether anyone has used the Optibac probiotics for a fresh cycle or a frozen cycle? I hadn’t heard of them until recently. If so which ones did you choose or which did your clinic suggest to use? I’m guessing intimate flora for women which suggest they reach the womb. The

Blagging a scarce Covid booster
Recent posts have asked questions about Covid booster eligibility for those taking prednisolone and being immuno-suppressed, potentially.I flippantly replied to PMRPro recently that I would accept my invitation via the NHS messaging service, book an appointment with my local pharmacist and see if they

Selegiline side effects
Hi All. Due to drug shortages we've been unable to get rasagiline and had to swap to selegiline. Since the swap mum has had lots of unusual bleeding and the GP thinks it may be a side effect of the selegiline. Just wondered if anyone else has had similar problems and if so how did you resolve things?

10dp5dt BFN what more can I do?
hi there so we decided to test this morning with FRER and it’s the all too familiar stark one single line. Not even a glimmer of a second line. I think I’m out. This was our last embryo and was a 5AB. I did an endometrial scratch, I was down regulated on buserelin, my progesterone levels were good and

Covid 19 and thyrotoxicosis
If my memory serves me right, there had been questions in the past about changes in thyroid levels after Covid 19. Today I found this publication, which talks about just that. Here is the link: https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/thy.2023.0626#xd_co_f=ZDI1NTIxNTEtYzdiZi00ZDRiLWI2ZjAtYTVlYjk1YTdiY2M4

steroids and diuretics
we may need to discuss some diuretics with the GP. Mum is currently receiving some respite care and her legs are becoming swollen….they’re not as good as insisting on the elevation as I do at home. I notice there’s a bit of a flag with prednisolone and furosemide due to potassium issues. Has anyone
