chest infection
I am currently tapering from 30mg to 25mg prednisolone for GCA. (been taking pred since February). I have had a productive cough and what I believe is a chest infection for 2 weeks. It is definitely better this week than last week and the guaifenesin I have taken has helped. I do not feel unwell

Period flu?
Just wondering if anyone is experiencing what I am. I underwent excision surgery for stage 3 endo in November, however more recently the pain is worsening again but right now that’s not the worst symptom- the last 3/4 months, either during or instantly after my period I’m hit with the WORST flu/cold

My dad graduated from ICU today! Severe Pneumonia
Hello, Everyone: I have posted here about my dad who is in his late 70s. At the end of August, he was admitted to the hospital to remove a small benign cyst from his throat and two days after the surgery, he choked on water and yogurt that were served and developed aspirational pneumonia. Since it

Personal Sleep PR
This is the first time I have passed 8 hours of sleep in the almost 8 years of keeping track. I usually score 80 or 81. 89 is an all time record for me. So what happened. First off, I could feel my RLS earlier in the evening. Little things were beginning to trigger my RLS, nothing strong but

Hepatitis B
It started with yellow eyes and went south very quickly. I have had 2 weeks of hell and been very unwell. It was confirmed that I had Hep B and it really has turned my life upside down. It would be good to know others experiences.

COVID vaccine side effects
I have been on 11 1/2 mg of Prednisone and have been holding my own. Last Thursday I had my 7 th Moderna COVID booster. Since then I have been in terrible pain all over my body. When I take a Tylenol it does help ( which is not usually the case for me, normally). I really do not like taking Tylenol

Covid Positive
Wednesday evening saw me get a positive Covid test result after me thinking I was immune 🤦♂️. I’d previously been told I’d need antiviral medication ( as I’m on 8L of oxygen upon movement) so Thursday morning we rang the doctor and a paramedic was sent to our house . A lovely guy came out and because

Issues sleeping, and other things
Diagnosed with chronic bronchitis 2 years ago. I had some sort of flare in Jan that never settled. Two weeks ago I started doxy followed by azithro & 10 days of steroids. Some mild SOB on incline walking in the last month. Normally I clear my mucus with sea swimming (fit & active 40 yr old M). A week

Finished Venetoclax, then Covid
My doctor prescribed Venetoclax after two rounds of chemo/immuno infusions to fight CLL. I felt great! Swimming half a mile, felt strong. Then bronchitis, pneumonia, and Covid. Was hospitalized and released in 6 days. But my home convalescence is not what I expected. Weakness, coughing, general severe

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

Garlic and Autoimmune
I have antiphospho lipid antibody syndrome (CAPS) and a very high intolerance for Garlic, within 20 minutes of ingesting garlic I start vomiting and my intestines blow up like balloons and I have extreme pain. My daughter who has lupus was told by her doctor not to eat Garlic as it activates
