Rituximab
does anyone have any advice about the effect of the COVID vaccine on Rituximab. I had my first infusion in July which has been successful for me and given me a pain free life. So don’t want to ‘mess it up by risking Covid vaccine if it has a negative effect. thanks

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

Baby Athletes Foot
My baby is 5 months old and I think he may have athletes foot if that’s at all possible! I think it’s probably from where he has had sweaty feet and then worn baby gros overnight with covered feet, we keep his feet bare during the day when at home to let them air out and dry. Is there anything over the

Cough
So, since having a virus causing a sinus cold at the start of Easter holidays, I have had a flare up which has gradually gotten worse since. I think, symptoms-wise I might have stabilized. Anyhow, I have realized that since about halfway through April I started with a light cough and it has increased

Is this Scabies?
Please tell me if this looks like scabies? This is right under the armpit. I have tried to crop and focus on the problem area but can share another version of this photo if it is not clear. I am morbidly obese so a lot of skin stretching is happening.

Shingles and MTX
I'm due to go visit family but brother-in-law has shingles. Normally I wouldn't worry as I have had chicken pox but the NHS in advice on taking MTX says to contact the doctor if you've been exposed to shingles (which suggests we should avoid contact with shingles patients). Has anyone been advised to

Alvesco and fostair
I am currently on fostair 100 mart, with the ability to switch to fostair 200 when I need it. Along with spiriva. My asthma is relatively uncontrolled, but spiriva has helped a lot. My consultant has just put Alvesco 160 into the mix twice a day. Any idea of what he is doing, apart from just increasing

Covid vaccine during tapering down PMR?
Thanks so much for the valuable responses, which I am studying ongoing,to my previous posts. I was dubious about the Covid vaccine possibly bringing back my PMR symptoms. Having read the posts here I am largely reassured, but I would like to check for my own circumstances. I have never had a problem

Covid and flu vaccines
I unexpectedly had Covid and flu vaccinations today whilst at the doctor's for something else. Was putting it off but glad it's done now. Today is the day I usually inject my MTX and one nurse said give it a miss this week whilst another said to do it as normal. I decided to give it a miss. Is there
