Hi beave. Thanks for that- that puts my mind at ease! I don't know which one it was, but it had a definite banana twang to it, which was new! The pain is now more of a discomfort, but constant, and...
Thanks both. I work at a hospital (only admin), but the doc here said give it until tomorrow.. The pain starts just below my ribs, centrally, and moves around to the left, with occasional stabs lower...
Hi All! I've just had (yesterday) an MRE. I had one a couple of years ago so knew what to expect. The difference this time - after 24 hours I am still only passing liquid bms, and have awful, sharp...
Well, I'm now waiting for a clinic appointment, hopefully before my next infusion on 15th November.. I don't think I'll have much luck with Humira, it's quite pricey so not sure the NHS would go for...
Hi Both. As I am on mono-therapy I get a steroid shot before the infusion. And I take a Benadryll at home before as I used to get awful hives the night after an infusion - that's gone now! The...
Thank you all. I had an awful Friday night, ended up vomiting and feeling like I was dying. I didn't..! I still feel quite head heavy. My infusions started out at 8 weeks (300mg), but I suffered...
Hi All! I've felt for a while that my infusions were having less and less impact on me, my fatigue has become crippling, I'm passing up to 8 BMs a day (from super hard to mousse-like) and I'm back on...
Hi Susie, I've contacted the IBD team for advice, being seen in clinic 10th August, next infusion early September.. The GP did speak to the Gastro registrar before giving me the anti virals, and...
Soo.. update... Shingles. I have shingles..! could all of the symptoms have been building up to this?! Aside from a little nausea they have all disappeared! Is this the end of the road for me and...
Thanks Susie - I had read a little on the potential of an ulcer. I will call the GIs office and see if I can be seen sooner (fingers crossed). Hadn't considered IBS! Thank you! Ambling no, the GP...
Thank you both! I am dairy/lactose free already, and have been for several years. I am also vegetarian so no meet. I've been low residue since April due to repeat bouts of constipation (I go from one...
I am at my wits end...! My symptoms: Severe nausea (worse after eating), vomiting on occasion, loose stools, bloating, loss of appetite, felling full, crippling fatigue, aching eyes. I've had blood...
Hi NCOT, and thanks. I had the flu early January, so I'd like to think I was over the worst, though it did linger for around 4 weeks.. I'll see the GP and see what they say, thanks again!...
Hi All! So, I've been on infliximab (Remicade) for two years, I've had hives following infusions but that stopped around 6 months ago, and I've gone from 8 week to 10 week intervals because the level...
Thank you both, I ended up with flu, the worst feeling I've ever had, and now have antibiotics for a chest infection, so perhaps (I hope!) it was all just building towards that...!...
Hello All! I used to be a member but the email account I used is closed and I couldn't reset my password.. :eyes: Anyway.. In March 2016 I was admitted to hospital for a week, and after lots of...
