Blood test results
Hi I have had a Medichecks blood test before having my Endo appointment next week. I’m on 50 mcg levothyroxine and 10 mcg Liothyronine (taken as 5 mcg twice daily). My TSH levels are low and TPA very high. Is this normal on combination therapy? While I feel better on this regime I cannot lose the

Newly diagnosed - Hashimoto's question
Hello all. Having lurked here for the best part of a month and learned tons of informative stuff, I’m posting to ask for some specific advice. I was diagnosed as hypothyroid five weeks ago, after a couple of months of feeling terrible – exhausted, nauseous, aching, generally ill. After lots of investigations

Stressed out by good news?!
Hey guys, Have any of you had one of these stress perfusion MRI scans? They show the blood flow to your heart muscle. I had mine last month and I have just got the results. Over all they are good...I had a 2x CABG aged 34 in January and the report from the scan shows I have 1/16th of my heart not getting

Does anybody here take Isosorbide Mononitrate 60 mg twice a day ?
Had a 3 X CABG 7 years ago, I’m now a 64 years old, male. Everything since then has been fine, until recently, as I've now started to get angina attacks in the early mornings whilst asleep, and if I exert myself (like walking to the shops). I had to go to A&E when using my GTN spray did not work on

Can you feel your heart post CABG
Hi all I’ve been for a stress test today on the treadmill and the same happened as it did the other day when I tried to go for my first hill walk on the local hills by us. I started off fine but as the gradient increased my heart rate obviously increased but the rate wasn’t massive around 110 the problem

Request for my views on rux
Hi there I received a request re ruxilitinib. I have to admit that I consider it to have been my “life saver” I was on hydroxyurea from 2007 to 2016 and had dreadful symptoms, constant itching, swollen spleen night sweats, and the most dreadful mouth ulcers and swollen tongue. That was so bad that

Symptoms a year after CABG, 20 months after Heart Attack.
I would be interested in the experiences of others relating to the aftermath of CABG surgery. Potted history: From around summer 2017 when aged 60, I started to feel a mild tingling and "tight" sensation sometimes under my left ribs, sometimes in my back around the same height. It continued on and

Does the anxiety ever go away?
Hello everyone, I hope you are having a good weekend. It is now nearly 12 months since I had my heart attack and my CABG x 4. . The road has been bumpy since then. What with challenges with changing medications and wondering if each twinge or slight pain is another heart attack. The main problem I seem

Heart attack I didn’t know about?
I’ve just come back from seeing my cardiologist who said I’m doing pretty well following my quadruple CABG 6 weeks ago but wants me to do some stress tests because I’ve used my gtn a couple of time since. The big thing is now we had time to chat as my surgery was pushed through really quickly following

Doing the Plank post CABG?
hi i am 6 months post quad CABG and in a good place fitness wise. i want to do some more core exercises so was thinking of the plank which I did pre-op. Question, when just lying on my front on a hard carpeted floor I can still feel pain in the centre of my chest which I understand is normal.

Boron
Anyone know if boron and strontium citrate are okay to take together? Perhaps only one is better than the other. I have mild osteoporosis but am trying to aid a lumbar bone graft fusion from surgery 3 months ago. I take d3, k2, strontium citrate and biotin. I also am on Gabapentin for nerve pain. I
