Inadvertent taper of prednisolone
I inadvertently took 5mg instead of 10mg prenisolone for 2 days( before which everything was fine) and all my inflammation symptoms of my uveitis came back(haziness etc). . Now I'm back on 10mg . Any idea how long it would take for these symptoms to resolve itself?

Serositis and Hypotension anyone?
Diagnosed with Adult Onset Stills Disease aged 17 in 1979 now 61. Stills manifests as RD for me with many overlaps with RA and Lupus. I have other AI conditions such as Lichen Sclerosis and Enthetitus. Amazingly I’ve been mainly medication free since my mid 20s relying on pain relief and limb splints

Histamine Intolerance
Hi all. I've been ill for almost 14 years without a diagnosis. I have learned through my own trial and era that I have an intolerance to foods high in histamine and foods containing gluten. My question is can chemical intolerance go hand in hand with histamine intolerance or Mast Cell Disease? I get

Varicose Veins
I've developed varicose veins just below my knee on one leg. I've had some permanent bruising on the same leg that the consultant says not to worry about for several years. Do I need to be bothered about the bumpy veins, or should I get it checked out? They e been there a while, some are colourless,

UK - Liver Resection
I'm having my liver resection on Friday 18th August to remove HCC and I'm just falling apart. I'm so scared and nervous. I feel sick, I'm bloated (from stress), I feel I have no desire to eat properly so I'm eating the wrong foods. I'm getting heart burn too. I'm convinced it's all anxiety related to

Sod's Law. Due for colonoscopy this morning, so spent the last 3 days on a white diet, no alcohol, yesterday went through the Moviprep routine to empty bowels, spent all evening on and off toilet, most unpleasant. Got up at 2am this morning for toilet, and guess what, of course, AF suddenly kicked in

Celiac testing and Obinutuzumab
So I am getting tested for celiac disease. I've known I had issues with gluten for years, and my grandma had it, but it never got that bad. Now I've had diarrhea for months and am losing weight - so it seems sensible to get it checked out. But I'm on V & O, completed the O infusions in July (about

Wrist and hand operation.
Hi again lovely helpful people. I am due to have a wrist and knuckle replacements (MCPJ silastic replacement) and intrinsic releases (tendons I think). It’s a big deal and not without risks I’m very worried. I was wondering if anyone else had a similar operation? Thank you 🙏

Temgesic/Buprenorphine
Jelbea and Shumbah have both posted recently about Temgesic versus Buprenorphine and the different half life of these 2 medicines.Both have Buprenorphine hydrochloride as the active ingredient BUT Temgesic has a much shorter half life. This means it will have to be taken every 6 to 8 hours throughout

problems wearing glasses?
Hi. I’ve always worn glasses - very shortsighted so a strong prescription and heavy lenses. For a long time I’ve had to pay for the lightest possible lenses and small frames, because of headaches. But despite that, in the last 2-3 years I get sores on the sides of my nose where the glasses rest. It’s
