I am not asking for a medical opinion. I am hoping to get this soon after studying the Epstein Barr virus, MS and my symptoms. Have any of you been diagnosed with the Epstein Barr virus? Do any of you have tinnitus, iritis, vertigo and tendons? I started to have numbness in the back of my neck,

Hylo Forte or Carbomer Gel?
I have been using hypromellose eye drops for a while because, particularly from Spring to autumn, I have itchy, gritty, dry eyes. This year they're worse than ever making my vision very blurred and no amount of hypromellose will fix it. Last week I went to get my eyes tested, thinking the blurred vision

Preventable Corneal Abrasion
Recently I went to a recycling centre on a windy day. I usually wear eye protection glasses but had forgotten to put them in the car. Within 5 minutes some dust had blown into my 'good eye' and it was very painful. Everyone was busy shaking out bags briskly all around me. Luckily I was not driving

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

Being taking off Pegasys. :( Looking for alternatives
Hi all, I have ET & PV with Jak2. I am 40. I have been on aspirin for over 10 years, but had to start Pegasys 3 months ago. I haven't tolerated it well. Severe shortness of breath etc. My hematologist reduced my dose to 30 per week, but I am suffering with hypertension (150 to 69/96 on average) and

Some help please…regarding waiting times
I have just spoken to the hospital about my referral and they are saying it could take 3 to 4 months. I cannot wait that long as my brain can’t cope and with all the medication I’m taking I cannot stay on it for that long. I had a laser iridotomy in November through the NHS for narrow angles this partially

immune system
Hi Everyone Can anyone tell me what affect Pegasys has on the immune system. A few tears ago I had a positive ANA and Anti-Ro blood test, was seen by a Rheumatologist who said I had Sicca symptoms but not Sjogrens. Another recent blood test has shown the same, positive ANA and Anti Ro. Now I am having

Problem with antihistamines
I have glaucoma and the treatment causes me to have dry eyes that have resulted in damaged corneas. I am prescribed Carmellose 1% eye drops. I was also prescribed Fexofenadine tablets for my allergies but decided to stop taking them as watery eyes helped to reduce the dryness. However, given the pollen

Dexamethasone & Chloramphenicol. Do they cause blurred vision?
Went down to eye casualty as still had sensitivity and irritation from my cataract op though my vision was clear. No infection but the eye is very dry still. Seems the dry eye drops aren't doing a lot. I need to use my heat mask at least once a day. They've stopped the Betamethasone I was given after

wheat in cosmetics
I’m recently diagnosed with coeliac disease. I’m following a gluten free diet but have noticed that a product I bought to promote hair growth contains wheat germ amongst many other ingredients. As this product needs to be massaged into the scalp should I not use it?
