autoimmunity
I went to Laurie Mischley’s alumni camp in August. One of the Labs that I decided to get done called Nuro zoomer I believe, had an interesting result. Turns out I have auto immunity to my glycine receptors. There’s not a whole lot about this online, but apparently in some cases it can cause parkinsonism

None of my family message me.
I deleted Facebook around a year ago, and after that I have felt very isolated. During that period of time there has been a lot of introspection and I have noticed that I never receive messages from family members. It is always me sending messages. And then they often stop responding even if I am

happened to see this article In a news feed regarding B and T cells, Covid and antibodies…
I have wondered why if we don’t make antibodies by getting vaccinated, then why bother. This article gives me some hope that we are protected more than I thought. Hope that this article is credible. Just wanted to post it for our information. Subject may have been touched on before in HealthUnlocked

Hi folks, just been sent a link for the Shingles Vaccine, is this something anyone else has had. I wasn't aware that when taking Methotrexate this was possible. Unfortunately I can never get through to my surgery to ask the question. Thank you
