PMR and new COVID mNRA vaccine
I was 1 month off prednisone in March 2021 when I received the second of two initial (Moderna) vaccines. PMR came back within a couple days; could not lift my arms or turn over in bed. I started back on prednisone sometime in April 2021 after blood tests showed elevated ESR and CRP. I’ve had no trouble

24/7 Acid Reflux
Good day, I developed very bad acidity in July 2021 just after having Covid-19. I woke up one evening with a very bad acidic taste in my mouth and it has never gone away ever since. It feels like I have a cup of lemon juice in my mouth 24/7. I have been to numerous doctors and specialist and none seem

Metformin reduced Long Covid
Metformin is an old but well established diabetes drug. This study found a substantial benefit with metformin to prevent long covid. The attached plot shows this 41% reduction. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(23)00299-2/fulltext And up to 63% if taken in time:

PMR symptoms after steroid injection 12 days ago
Happy New Year everyone. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas .🎄 I posted just before Christmas about awful shoulder and neck pain and that I saw a private doctor who thinks my symptoms are PMR. He gave me a steroid injection. It has helped dampen down the pain. It was excruciating but has since

steroid injection
Hi everyone Happy New Year to you all. Can anyone answer my question if it's safe to have a steroid injection for frozen shoulder if you have open angle glaucoma? Don't know what to do. Many thanks in advance.

Covid recovery
Hi, I tested positive on 15th December and was positive for 14 days. It attacked my lungs this time and was bad. From day 1 I was prescribed steroids and a 2 week course of Docyciclyne to take alongside my nebuliser. I’m now on my third course of steroids and my peak flow is still only about 310. Heart

Low BP in afib and covid
After all the years I have finally caught COVID. Had a headache for a couple of days which has gone now. Not much coughing, just feel a bit achy and weak.Unfortunately, it's sent me into an afib episode although my heart rate is staying below 100bpm in fact it's hovering around 70 to 80bpm. I was concerned

questions
In the summer, I noticed sporadic noises in one ear. It only happened at night, when lying down to sleep. It was almost like a deep and faint squeak. It lasted 2 days and went away. Months later, after developing a sinus cold, it returned. I did not react immediately as I thought it would pass. After

Biologic with covid
Testing positive for covid and am am taking a biologic.Like my head the info is a bit wooly, but I think it maybe that I should suspend the biologic until covid test is negative. Presume this is correct as i think it should make sense. Is anyone in similar circumstances able to confirm or otherwise?

Unexplained increase in mortality rates
I'd like to begin by saying I'm not a conspiracy theorist by any stretch of the imagination but having heard so many stories (mostly first hand and through personal experience) since the outbreak of Covid in Jan 2020 I am beginning to question what's going on. A recent publication in LANCET, no less
