INR control
Hi don't know if this is of any interest to anyone ,but my INR has always been impossible to stabilize My heamatologist suggested taking a small dose of vitamin K and increasing the warfarin dose I didn't do this as don't want to be taking any more supplements, So I decided to massively increase my intake

Apixaban Eliquis vs Teva
Anyone had issues with Teva Apixaban? My wife has been switched from Eliqius to Teva and now has a number of side effects (anxiety/emotional, nausea, headaches, balance) that she never had while taking Eliqius for 9 years.

Propanolol
I have been given Prop for my AF, cardiologist changed me over from Digoxin to it. I also have restless legs and they seem to have become really bad since starting prop. Does anyone else have af and rls, if so what do you take?

bile ducts
I had a blood test few weeks back result was Alp 177and Alt 50. GP repeated them and they came back Alt 30, Alp 139 BUT GGT 105 which wasn’t tested previously. I paid to have an ultrasound scan which showed intrahepatic bile duct dilation of 3.6mm. Everything else was ok in terms of liver gall bladder

Cholesterol, Hypothyroidism, Statins
The issue of elevated cholesterol in those with undiagnosed/under medicated hypothyroidism used to be commonly known. Not so now, the information is out there but not sufficiently joined up and prominent in many doctors minds to be a frontline consideration. Thus we need to be well versed so we can

Low Heart Rate
As I mentioned a few days ago, I've been waiting to hear from the Arrhythmia clinic. It's been 3 weeks and no phone call so I called today, got a voicemail. Hopefully I hear soon. Today I don't seem to have any energy and thought I would check my HR. I was shocked to see it was 43. Sure hope I don't

medication after open heart surgery
is there anyone on this site who has had a heart valve replacement and is now using biologic meds to control their ra? If so, I’d love to hear your experience. I was born with a bicuspid aortic valve which needed replacing in June (an event hastened by a toxic reaction to leflunomide). I’ve had an Inspiris

CLL / SLL & Autoimmune Disease ???
Recently I've had very bad fatigue, hives, joint pain/swelling, and high white cell counts indicative of inflammation. Have SLL and been on BTKs for 2.5 years but my hemo doesn't think drug side effects or disease progression are causing these symptoms. Rather, she said they could indicated a separate

Clopidogrel
In June 2023 I ended up in A&E with some odd symptoms and the doctors thought I had a TIA, after a MRI, CT with contrast, ECG, Blood tests, Echo and a heart monitor for a week they could not confirm or deny what happened that day but wanted to keep me on clopidogrel for 3 months just incase. Since then

Strange eGFR Reading?
Last month, my blood test showed a Creatinine level of 1.64 and an eGRF of 45. A follow up test 3 weeks later showed a Creatinine level of 1.60 and an eGFR of 32. Yes, I was a little dehydrated for the 2nd test, but these results make no sense to me. I then used several online calculators and keep

Interesting PSA observation
For my prostate cancer journey, please see my bio. In 06/2023 I was also diagnosed with testicle lymphoma, maybe as a side effect of earlier radiation. Testicle has been removed, PET/CT & co showed no other evidence of cancer. So I perform four cycles of R-CHOP chemo regimen. Why I post this here? After

Coeliac-related thyroid problems
My 15 year old granddaughter has thyroid problems(hypo) associated with her having coeliac disease. Her condition is monitored (TSH is currently 5) and it seems to be a case of "wait and see" and the thyroid may correct itself. I understand this but the symptoms of feeling unwell, low energy etc from

Ultrasonographer said fatty liver and nothing sinister
He then said he couldn't say more and I had to discuss with my GP to decide if further tests were necessary. This arose because I have osteoporosis and my ALP was elevated at 198. They checked my GGT which was 54 and ALT 44. This was on 26th July. Checked again 9th August and ALP 196, ALT 40 and

low cortisol help please
Hi everyone I had a cortisol test recently and it measured 28, according to my rheumatologist it should be between 133-540approx. She is sending me for a Synacthen test but in the meantime I was wondering if anyone has any thoughts on what, if anything, I should be doing to help. I am experiencing
