Immunoglobin Blood Test.
Hello everyone. I had the Covid booster 2 weeks ago. I had an appointment booked for blood tests 4 days later. These were to rule in or out the cause of Osteopenia - low bone density mass.I now have Covid. Nurse rang me with blood test results yesterday and said they were normal apart from the Immunoglobin

Slow burn flare, following latest Covid vaccine.
It started with extreme fatigue - unable to keep my eyes open. Now I am finding it hard to walk and have significant back, knee, neck and head pain. A complete eye Heath check where nothing of concern was found yesterday required 2 hours sleep to recover. I am doubling my 5 mgs dose to do sick day rules

Covid Jab.
I've had my covid jab on 12/10/23.I'm alive ( yaaaaaay) , however like the previous jabs this one too has slowed me down too & it takes 48hrs for me to get back to normal & it's no different from having the flu jab. To me it's worth my life & I can now focus on getting over the hurdle of me getting reacquainted

Left Ventricle?
Hi..had an echocardiogram yesterday and the radiologist is referring me to the cardeologist because she said she can't tell if my left ventricle is operating at optimal capacity...right away I'm spooked by this...since lockdown in 2020 I've gone from 4-5 days of 45 mins on the treadmill and moderate

Tattoo /steroids
My rheumatologist mentioned I might need steroid injections into my feet/toes specifically (guided by ultrasound). I have a large foot tattoo (well, I have fairly small feet but tattoo is across a fairly large proportion). She said they'd inject just beside it. I'm quite anxious about damaging my tattoo

Advice Required
Sorry this is long So I've had a rough summer. Initially really tired in evenings, rang the GP...was told at 46 I'm probably menopausal and what do I expect. A week later my leg swole. I went in said I thought cellulitis, different GP thought more likely clot so scans and anti clot stuff and a basic

Covid
Hi all.So, I'm now on my 4th bout of covid. I am not really so surprised I'm stuck with heart problems. I guess it can only get worse. Has anyone else had covid 4 times, or at least more than once? I want to point out that I am a healthcare worker and have been vaccinated, although I don't believe

Covid booster..good news story
We are all different, and respond differently to meds, vaccines, etc. I thought I'd post to say I had both my Covid booster (my 7th covid jab to date) and my flu jab on Sat. I had a slightly sore arm, and that was it. The least reaction I've had to date. BTW I was Pfizered, like in the spring. I

Covid Vax when Sick?
Does anyone know whether it's advisable to get vaccinated when you're ill with something else? For the last week I've been laid out with either a cold or allergies (leaning toward the latter based on symptoms) and I'm scheduled to get a combo covid/flu vax tomorrow. I really want to get that done ASAP

Covid Jabs
Does being hypothyroid and asthmatic qualify anyone aged 60 for a Covid jab this winter, does anyone know? Receptionist at my surgery has just told me not. Although they want me to have a flu jab! I can't figure that out at all... And what do you guys think about having one anyway? I've had three
