CHANGE OF BIOLOGIC TREATMENT
Hello, I have had Rheumatoid arthritis since my late 30s (77 now). I had several biologic treatments , some of which did not really control the RA well… The best biologic was Enbrel (Etanercept) weekly injections. It gave me my life back for 14 years until I had my second knee replacement operation

At my wits end
After suffering with stomach issues for an absolutely years (getting progressively worse each year) I was eventually given a test from the GP, the stool sample flagged something so was sent off to gastro. They did the usual colonoscopy which came back with ulcers in the colon. They took samples, which

Varicose veins and returning to running after time off
Hi, first post here. I have varicose veins and am an endurance runner. I have not run since January 2024. Since injury and to keep cardio up, I ride 120 KMs a week. I am ready to return to running and was wondering how long will it take me to return to previous level of fitness after having time off

Varicose veins and returning to running after injury
I have varicose veins and have not done long distance running since January this year. I have been riding my bike 120 km per week to keep cardio fitness up. Just wondering would it be ok to come back to running yet? I have not had surgery and don't intend to get surgery. Would it be ok to get back to

Benefit of private consultation, Adeno & Fybroids
Hi this is the first time I have posted here, but have been following messages for a while and just wanted to share the positive experience I’ve had with a private consultation. I started in November last year with what I would describe as hemorrhaging. I’ve always had heavy periods but this was uncontrolled

Depressing facial rashes/What do you do?
Today I feel very overwhelmed with the uglies of lupus on my face. I’ve begun a flare of my own fault getting maybe 5 minutes of sun. My face is attacked with red raised bumps and my fingers and legs as well. I’ve had this before but never so acute. I take hydroxy and can’t change to another medication

Followed advice here, now need help with understanding results
Hi, I’ve learned more here in the last year or so than I’ve ever learned from doctors. I’ve also come to know that I’ve probably been on too low of a Synthroid dosage for far too long. I am hypothyroid with Hashimoto’s since 2005 or 2006. I had a goiter on my parathyroid and had surgery to remove

hyperthyroidism
Hi I had blood tests 3 weeks ago which show an overactive thyroid. I started carbimazole 30mg daily and propranolol 20mg daily. I am due to be having surgery in 2 weeks to remove the right side of my thyroid. However, today I have been informed my FT4 has jumped to 28.2 and TSH is undetectable. Carbimazole

hi thanks for your kind replies RE enlarged aorta 4.4 cm
I’m terrified of the impact on my family if I suffer a dissected or ripped aorta which can apparently happen anytime. Does the risk decrease after elective surgery. Thankyou in advance for your kind replies/advice - I’d really like to hear your experiences as this is all new to me (3weeks) what a situation

Post following my first consultation
Hi everyone, I posted recently to ask for some advice with regards to my first private consultation. I had this yesterday and based off my symptoms he said endometriosis is likely and would like to do a laporoscopy. I've never had surgery or been to hospital myself before so it's all a bit daunting!

Can't believe I did this
I've had RLS for 15 plus years, mainly being treated with Sinemet (1 tab 25/100) over the years, with Ropinirole and more painfully, Pramipexole which caused severe augmentation a year ago. Three weeks ago, I had surgery for right anterior tibial tendon repair on my right ankle BECAUSE I stretched it
