Covid day four....U.K
Hi all. This sounds so stupid but I thought it was a regular cold. Just did a COVID test and it's positive. I think it maybe too late to access antivirals now? What should I do? Sorry, just a bit panicked. Thank you in advance.

I have an appointment on the 8th and I really want to understand what he is going to discuss

Anyone here with cervical arthritis?
I recently found out that the pains I've been having in my neck, shoulders and arms is arthritis. Specifically c4-c5, c6-c7. I don't want ibuprofen, Tylenol isn't working and I'm allergic to sulfa drugs; I'm kinda concerned about all the drugs, but need something to help so I can continue to work. I

Stopped Prednisone Completely
Diagnosed in the fall of 2022 with PMR. Put on 13mg daily, the relief from the discomfort of PMR was immediate; overnight to be specific. The next month, began reducing my dosage about 1mg/mo. On 2023-10-06, began every other day dosage of 1mg. On 2023-12-26 I took my last dose and so far, so good

looking for a neurologist
Can anyone recommend a neurologist knowledgeable in RLS in the Bristol/ Bath (England) area ? I currently have a neurologist whom I rate quite highly but who cannot prescribe opioids as they are not on the formulary of the hospital where she practises. She has however asked my GP to prescribe Oxycodone

today/tonight
this afternoon I am going to the casino to hang out with some friends from college. We’re going to shop at the outlets before checking into our air bnb and getting ready for the evening. Our plan is to gamble a bit and go to a nightclub after. Because of my anxiety I already plan on not drinking. But

Shingles pain
I've had shingles with continuing pain. Wounds like a burn and a scratch are taking ages to heal. I am older, 66, and I know this can happen. Any suggestions for tests I could ask for and is there any point asking for them. Best wishes Fiona

A help line that works! Wow what a surprise.
Some of you will know that last September I had a pacemaker installed. At the time of my six week checkup the centre told me that I would have a bedside monitor box that would read my PM and relay any problems to the clinic but that they were out of stock. When I was chatting to my EP recently I mentioned

Recurrent vaginal thrush- need urgent help
I had what looks like a vaginal thrush for the first time 3 weeks back. I'm 35 yrs old. My GP nurse saw me and suggested Canesten pessary.

Aciclovir as prevention for shingles
I wish to express my deepest thanks to all fellow members who have responded to my recent enquiry. There has been consensus in all replies confirming that prescribing Aciclovir is standard practice.

Free Covid tests for vulnerable
Does anyone know how we get free covid tests now that the government has stopped its postal service? I have looked on the NHS sites and there is no clear information. I also went to my local pharmacy and they had no idea about free tests.

Illness and taking T3 - something to consider?
just a thought I wanted to put out there and see what everyone else thinks… I am now prescribed T4 and T3 and it has been a bit of a life changer for me. Previous to the T3 being added, I was on mono T4 for years. To get out of bed and function, I had to have my T4 over range, whilst my T3 was scrapping
