Bone marrow transplant
Hi, I am being offered a bone marrow transplant and wonder if anyone can offer me positive advice. Obviously the process is quite scary, but would like to think I'm doing the right thing. Thank you George

Has Anyone Tried Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) - for expedited healing from radiation induced bone fractures & unhealing wounds?
I understand that Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) helps tremendously with jaw bone death caused by Xgeva type drugs & radiation induced bone problems. It is FDA approved therapy for radiation induced injuries. There are no contraindications for people with active cancer. I’m considering HBOT (defined

Update on progress with MF and the FEDORA clinical trial
So to recap, I was diagnosed with primary MF in October 2022 and asked to join a new clinical trial called FEDORA. After many tests including a BMB, ultrasound on my abdomen, chest X-ray etc. I started on the pre medication of 400mg/day (in one dose) of Fedratinib in capsule form. This was the first

Sore mouth and toothpaste
There have been a couple of posts about sore mouth in the last month or so, so I would like to offer this: I've had so-called Burning Mouth Syndrome for some years, which has fluctuated, particularly with pred. The dentist says it nearly always turns out to be an allergy, but I couldn't track it down

Sore Throat
I have a sore throat right at the base of my throat where my thyroid is. It’s particularly sore in the night. Could it be my thyroid or just a random sore throat? My tonsils and throat area are slightly red, but nothing major. My current dose is T4 100mcg and T3 18.75. What can I do about it? Painkillers

Stem Cell Transplant (stc) after care
Can someone who has been through a sct, or their carer, give me info about the time after hospital discharge please? We live more than 30 minutes from the transplant centre so the hospital is providing us with a flat in Bristol where my husband will be my carer. I know the early days he'll need to

ATG treatment /Rabbit antigens
Hi as previously explained I am awaiting bone marrow transplant. Have been told I will need rabbit antigens or ATG ahead of the process. From what the consultant has said it can cause lots of side effects eg high temp amongst other things. Has anybody else had this treatment? Thanks Joanne

blood test bingo!
I've just been to Bristol stem cell department in preparation for a possible Stem cell transplant. I had to have 14 phials of blood taken for tests. Is this a record at one sitting? !!

Osteoarthritis and lupus
I was wondering if anyone here has been diagnosed with both? I have lower back pain, but never had any X-ray that shows any degenerative changes. My rheumatologist mentioned last Thursday (over a phone appointment) that he thinks it is osteoarthritis in my lower back. I have significant morning stiffness

Tonsillitis question and mtx
Hi. My 3 year old granddaughter has just got back from A&E and she has tonsillitis and has been given antibiotics. I’m due my MTX jab tomorrow and as it’s bank holiday I can’t get hold of Rheumy nurse. On the internet the NHS says it not contagious but the bacterial or viral infection that causes tonsillitis
