1.5 mgs now blood tests all over the place
So I am into my third year with pmr. I have been at 1.5 mg prednisone for 2 weeks and had my quarterly bloodwork done. Ana is now positive. It was negative last quarter. I am positive for Sjogrens but I don't have any symptoms. Is this because of my lower dosage? I am a little stiff and slow , but

Taking Prolia with Rusolitinib (Jakafi)
I have been taking Jakafi (15 mg) twice a day for the last 3 years for my polycythemia vera. I also take blood thinners for my thrombocytosis since I have had blood clots in my lungs twice in the last 2 years. I have had osteoporosis for a while, but my T scores from bone density test are really

Tinnitus, anxiety and ADHD-like symptoms
Following frequent episodes of amnesia, including two major episodes where I lost several days, I found memory/auditory processing issues, increased anxiety, insomnia, nausea and vertigo has taken it toll. So I started to research the link between mind and brain. I think it's safe to say many of us -

Vision in the recovery weeks ( and long term) after a trabeculectomy.
I have had narrow angle glaucoma for over 10 years and despite years of drops and a laser iridotomy in both eyes my glaucoma is slowly progressing. My sight loss in my left eye is not too bad at all ( patchy small areas) but I do feel my central vision is not as good in my left eye ( no cataract or other

First MS Neuro Appointment!
Neuro confirmed in person that I have MS. I have RRMS. To get me out of the current flare, I started steroid infusions today, and will do 3 days of it. I am hopeful that it will really help. I'm looking forward to seeing what my 'new normal' is (more like impatiently waiting for this flare to be over

Cold weather trigger?
Does anyone else find that getting cold or being out in cold weather / air can cause problems?Cold air in the throat while out power walking, or simply realising I'm cold - it happened today - can combine to make me realise I'm going to become tachy and need warmth and to sit down (get a pip Bisoprolol

suspected epidural tumour
Hi all! Hope you are all doing well. My dad just got his scans back, and to go along with his rising PSA (over 260 now), the said they suspect he has an epidural tumour. Our MO typically glazes past his scan results as she doesn’t seem them significant, I want to make sure I am right to be worried here

chest infection
I am currently tapering from 30mg to 25mg prednisolone for GCA. (been taking pred since February). I have had a productive cough and what I believe is a chest infection for 2 weeks. It is definitely better this week than last week and the guaifenesin I have taken has helped. I do not feel unwell

From high hopes to not a lot of hope in one gruelling morning.
Hi everyone. What a day. Particularly what a morning. This is my third post. I was commenced on Mycophenolate by the Royal Hallamshire Consultant in early January. I attended for my second consultation this morning. Appointment was 10.20am. Arrived 9.30am. Car park full. Had to park half mile away and

Period flu?
Just wondering if anyone is experiencing what I am. I underwent excision surgery for stage 3 endo in November, however more recently the pain is worsening again but right now that’s not the worst symptom- the last 3/4 months, either during or instantly after my period I’m hit with the WORST flu/cold

flutter not fibrillation
Hi all I have paid to see an EP (privately) today who has confirmed 100% I have atrial flutter and no fibrillation? Anyone else just have flutter? He has recommended an ablation to sort it out and told me to stop taking Flecainide which makes me nervous. He says it probably isn’t doing much and could

Experiences with fast protein digestion
I am getting tired of not having any protein during the day or just fasting all day and I would like to be able to get "cheat days" once in a while. In this quest, I am convinced that there might be ways to digest food and in particular, protein faster 🧀🍕 Has anyone tried anything that you have found
