My father's dry amd has recently progressed to wet and we have been advised to get an
Anti

injection. He has advanced glaucoma as well and this is his only working eye (left). The other eye is already affected by glaucoma (90-95%).

CHANGE OF BIOLOGIC TREATMENT
Hello, I have had Rheumatoid arthritis since my late 30s (77 now). I had several biologic treatments , some of which did not really control the RA well… The best biologic was Enbrel (Etanercept) weekly injections. It gave me my life back for 14 years until I had my second knee replacement operation

Flare? Or has biologic stopped working?
I am on COSENTYX and MTX and had been doing ok. The consultant said I needed to start Alendronic acid as my bone density borderline. Within a few weeks my arthritis symptoms started to flare. I had a depo injection, but little or no effect. I have been taking celecoxib which wasn't doing enough so now

IVF process
Hi everyone, I'm seeking advice on IVF. Would you recommend going through a private clinic or using NHS services? What are the key differences between them? I'm 39 years old with an AMH level of 0.8, which is a bit low for my age. Should I be concerned, or is IVF still a viable option for me to get

Endometriomas and IVF
Just looking for some advise or from anyone who has gone through similar! I had surgery last June to remove bilateral cysts diagnosed with stage 4 endo and was put on Decaptyl for 3 months following this to stop regrowth. However within 6 months of TTC I now have 2 Endometriomas on my right ovary

NK cells and pcos -steroids or hydroxychloroquine?
Hi all, I’m under Prof Shehata’s NHS clinic (recurrent miscarriage )and my results showed raised NK cells although activation markers were in range. Everything else pretty good too although AMH was very high which is not necessarily a good thing and suggests that my PCOS is back (was diagnosed approx

Is redness normal?
I'm new to RA, still on waiting list to see rheumatologist in order to get proper diagnosis and treatment after several months of hobbling. The latest challenge is a very swollen warm, red ankle, very sore to walk on. Is this redness normal aswell as aches and swelling? GPs just prescribed NSAIDs.

NSAIDs
Here's a question that has been bothering me for a bit. Let's say I persevere and make it all the way to getting a transplant, and I'm getting along with it and the many requirements for keeping my new organ. Without any other issues cropping up, will NSAIDs ever be okay to take? I'm not planning

Cancelled IVF cycle
Just had my second cycle cancelled :( feeling super depressed and down. Stimulation hadn’t worked. First round only got one egg but embryo didn’t implant. Now this. I have very low egg reserve but I’d still like to try a third cycle. Was wondering if anyone had any success after 2 cancelled cycles in
