infection?
I had a vaginal ring fitted in august. At times I could feel near enterence of vagina. I would push back into place. The last week or 2 I’ve had a bit of a door. Today went I went to wee I wiped blood. I have now taken it out. My question is should I see the dr incase of infection?

shingles jab
Good morning has anyone had a bad reaction to their second shingles jab? First one was fine a slight sore arm but this time well I can’t tell you the reaction I had ….. muscle ache painful ears severe headache and a temperature anyone else suffered or was it just me!!! The arm didn’t hurt how ironic

Another Vaccine Dilemma! To have, or not to have a Tetanus Booster.
I've previously learnt on here that live vaccines are not recommended whilst on long term steroid medication, and that in many situations, alternative vaccines are available... as with the shingles vaccination program. Well, yesterday, whilst trimming my Wisteria, I accidentally pruned the tip of my

Two of the common conditions associated with PBC are thyroid conditions and with those that cause anemia. This is because they both have shared genetic factors that affect our immune response.

An underactive thyroid is caused by an autoimmune response to the gland itself.

10 year old with red patches on her face
Hi all,Just tying to figure out what we're dealing with here using your experience. My daughter, which is 10, started what looks to be a case of impetigo (meaning blisters in her nostril, crust and typical looking scabs). She only had few spots (under her nose and in top of one nostril). We started

Yes, You CAN have the Shingles Vaccine
Hi Everyone, I'm writing this just in case there is anyone out there who thinks they can't have the shingles vaccine because they are on pred. I believed this and refused the vaccine. I later found It was only true if you were on over 20mgs of pred (which I am not). Last October, a new vaccine

Is it safe to renew my tetanus injection with being on 8mg Pred?
My tetanus injection needs to be topped up. I have an allotment in London which used to be part of a railway embankment and wondered if it is wise to take the injection or to wait till I have tapered down to under 5 mg? The same goes for the Hepatitis which is due? Any advice would be appreciated

Hyberbaric Oxygen Therapy
I have a friend who contracted Lyme disease and recently underwent a series of hyperbaric oxygen therapy sessions. The treatment has completely transformed him and he is now his old self. I have read that this therapy helps Fibromyalgia and other autoimmune diseases and was wondering if anyone knew

shingles jab anyone?
I had a very bad bout of shingles three years ago. Yesterday my doctors surgery rang to say I qualified for a jab! I tried to ask if it was worthwhile for someone who had already had shingles and was told she was the receptionist! Fair enough but then you can’t speak to a medic anymore Any thoughts

Tetanus
Not too far back there was a discussion about having a Tetanus shot, might help PD. I tried a search and came up with only one 2 year old post. No very Techy. Can someone help me find the link to that discussion? Thank you

Flare after Shingrix shingles vaccine?
Hi Everyone, I received my second (recombinant) shingles vaccine yesterday. The first one caused a mild fever and malaise. This time my finger joints are stiff and pretty painful. Has anyone else had something similar and, if so, how long did it last? Thanks so much

Is this Scabies?
Please tell me if this looks like scabies? This is right under the armpit. I have tried to crop and focus on the problem area but can share another version of this photo if it is not clear. I am morbidly obese so a lot of skin stretching is happening.
