38 weeks planned c section - Steroid injection?
I’m currently 34+1 with our IVF miracle and having a planned c section at 38 weeks (had complicated emergency c section with first child) but they’ve said they offer an optional steroid injection if you deliver planned before 39 weeks which can apparently help with breathing for baby IF they have fluid

Pegasys Update 1.0
Finally getting around to sharing my experiences of starting Pegasys. First a little background. Diagnosed with ET JAK2+ in 2019 after a decade of scintillating scotomas with increasing frequency at almost weekly. Aspirin cut this to approx. 90 days! Over the next three years increasingly struggled with

Pneumonia
It turns out that I thought my extreme fatigue was due to having tapered to 4 mg, that I have pneumonia. So I have been on an antibiotic for two days and am much better. I had a cough but no fever but it was not improving so finally my dr did a chest xray. He told me to stay at 4 mg for the rest of

Medication or ?
So difficult to determine which medication causes unpleasant effects even with lots of 'homework' and the BNF, Cochrane reviews, NRAS network and publications etc. Suggestions - experiences gratefully received... Now been on steroids, hydroxychloroquine, methotrexate etc for many months - on and off

Covid and Myelofibrosis
hi I’ve just tested positive for Covid, I have post pv Myelofibrosis. I’m waiting on 111 to see whether I need to have some treatment. What are your thoughts and is this necessary now? I think it’s going to be a long wait, so it might be tomorrow. Thank you Mal

Trimbow inhaler
I have read a few people having symptoms of a soar mouth, bleeding and thrush etc from this inhaler or steroid inhalers and wanted to share a tip I had . Use a spacer , never suck in hard as the medicine will hit the back of your throat and not go down your windpipe to your lungs , take the second inhalation

Will a COVID (or flu) vaccination affect my blood results?
If I have a blood test 3 or 7 days after a COVID (or flu) vaccination - will it affect my blood results? Should I perhaps make the vaccination after the blood test, so that there is no potential issue interpreting my blood results? If the vaccination affects blood results - how many days after the vaccination

He said I mustn’t have any more steroids, I mustn’t increase oral steroids & no more
steroid
injections
. He was very forceful & somewhat pacing the floor. He said my CRP levels had never been high (& i don’t think he thinks I have polymyalgia).
