What is classed as a flare?
Hi, I was diagnosed in November, had a steroid injection and started on MTX, once the steroid started wearing off the pain and swelling in my knees returned straight away but not in my hands, they have been great. Had a load of fluid sucked out of my knee and another steroid injection about 6 weeks ago

dengue fever vaccinate or not?
I started off on 15mg Pred in October and am now down to 10mg. I am off to India (Rajasthan) in February and dengue fever vaccine has been suggested. As it is a live vaccine I am not sure whether having the vaccine is worth the risk of contracting dengue. Any advice? Also big thanks to the community

MART (maintenance as reliever therapy)
However I’m currently in the middle of a flare up (thank you cold weather +
chest
infection
!) and have ended up on prednisone tablets so that could be why?

Combining the Influenza and COVID-19 vaccines.
I have read of some people who got both vaccines at the same time, and their experience was not good. However perhaps a different kind of Influenza vaccine combined with a COVID-19 vaccine might make things easier.? This approach is now being tested. Pfizer and BioNTech Announce Positive Topline

Back on the road
A while since my last post ... I did re-graduate C25K and then after two days I did a first post-grad run of just 20 minutes. Another couple of days and I did 25 minutes. Then I got ill. Probably just a cold as I tested negative for Covid. Took me a week to feel better. Gave it a few days and then tried

Update.
Hi all. Been a bit quiet recently as I have had some issues. I had what I thought was heartburn a couple of weeks ago along with shortness of breath. After tests anECG and chest x-ray it is probable that I had a silent heart attack. Being monitored by the hospital. I have been exhausted recently so had

Pneumonia
Hi. I had my follow up chest x-ray for pneumonia 3 weeks ago and the good news is that it's come back clear. I'm really pleased but I'm still coughing at night and feel a bit breathless in the mornings. I told the doctor when he rang me with the results and he said, the infection has gone but lungs take

Immunocompromised?
Hi everyone I have looked at some pinned articles and still wanted to put this question out there. As a person who is Stage 0, is in W&W who has healthy RBC, Platelets and Immunoglobulin numbers… am I still considered immunocompromised? My WBC number is currently around 34. I work in large crowds

Delay starting hydrea for vaccines?
Unfortunately, this question came to me after I saw the doctor. A month ago, I was referred to a hematologist for abdominal pain, abnormal CBC and splenomegaly. This week, after finding JAK2 and a confirmatory bone marrow analysis, the doctor prescribed 500mg HU per day for PV and scheduled a return

Can I transmit Covid19 if I have recovered?
I live at home, and tested positive for Covid 9 days ago, and did not isolate from my parents during this time. I am now testing negative, and have plans with my girlfriend this weekend. However, it turns out my parents have now tested positive and I still have cold symptoms (even with a neg test).

The way you access free COVID-19 testing is changing in England and Northern Ireland.

Bursitis of toes & Steroid Injection
I've had pain from between the second & third toe since last May. It hurts to stand & walk especially barefoot or in shoes. I tend to wear trainers when I can as the base is soft & spongy. I had surgery Oct 22 for severe arthritis in the large toe & at first I feared it had spread. Two trips to GP (

COVID Vaccination and Chest pain
Is anyone out there concerned that there might be a link between COVID booster vaccinations and chest pain. I've posted before about my condition but here's a recap - In December 21, about 10 days after a Pfizer booster, I started to develop chest pain at rest and a burning sensation down my left arm

Covid exposure at 8 weeks 3 days pregnant
I'm looking for some reassurance or support. I was in contact with my 9 year old nephew yesterday. He had no symptoms but we spent a good length of time in same room together watching TV with minimal ventilation. Last night he got up with a fever and tested positive for covid on an LFT this morning.
