prednisone and antibiotics
Has anyone had a problem with antibiotics wiping out prednisone. Was down to 2.5-lowest in 8 years. Took antibiotics (Bactrim) and all old PMR symptoms came back. Hurt all over. Read Bactrim and Cipro are quinolones and do not work well with Steroids. Neither Dr or pharmacist knew this. Not sure how

Shingrix vaccine for immunosuppressed people aged 50+
I thought I would just post this from the gov.uk website because I have just a bit of struggle convincing our surgery that I was eligible, so maybe other people haven't been invited either.

Side effects of steroids
I am well aware that Prednisolone can affect you in various ways, acutely while you are using them and also long term.. But could it weaken your blood vessels? I have just found out that I have a couple of small bleeds/leaks from blood vessels at the back of one eye. While the bleeds in themselves

Covid Positive
Wednesday evening saw me get a positive Covid test result after me thinking I was immune 🤦♂️. I’d previously been told I’d need antiviral medication ( as I’m on 8L of oxygen upon movement) so Thursday morning we rang the doctor and a paramedic was sent to our house . A lovely guy came out and because

Steroids, statins, strange query
I was put on 80mg Atvostatin mid Aug following a TIA/Afib episode and diagnosis. From mid September I started to suffer an intermittent throbbing, burning pain on the ball of my foot and last three toes. It comes on suddenly such as during the short 1 mile walk I’ve just completed. Bloods in Sept showed

Satisfactory Rheumatology Appointment
Some of you will know that for the past 6mths I've been experiencing a few issues regarding the re-emergence of some symptoms, that seem to have resulted in some discord between myself and the rheumatology clinicians!

Sleep aids
Hoping that people can pass on what they use to help sleep with T. Realise there are likely to be a number of replies through various posts, but be good to hear what works for people on this thread if possible. ..on another note are steroids likely to spike tinnitus? Just finishing a 5 day course prescribed
