OAB Fluid intake important
Hi. Thanks for sharing your story. I’d like to add or expand here about fluid intake. I’ve just stopped the solifenacin after only a few weeks as I’ve developed breathing issues and hot clammy forehead I was still getting up 3-4 times a night which was an improvement on 6-7 times My Urology Consultant

Hi, i have finally got a diagnosis of ET and have started on pegasys, fourth injection this week. It has been warm here the last couple of days and I have found work to be extremely exhausting. Does anyone else suffer in the heat? I work in a lab so need to wear a labcoat. I have asked for an occupational

Wary of covid autumn booster
Hi, You can read from my profile that I am aware that there COULD be a link between the Pfizer jab (Comirnaty) that I had in November 2021 and the onset of PMR soon after. I had had two AstraZenica jabs prior to this earlier in 2021 with no adverse effects whatsoever. While on 6mg prednisolone, in

Dronedarone(Multaq) and lungfibrosis
As a teenager suffered from pulmonary sarcoidosis which healed up after 15 years leaving me with a slight restriction of my lung function. During the years up to recently (approx. 60 years) I have had had a few bouts of bronchitis every year. Always treated with antibiotics. My PAF started in 2003

Should I have a Covid booster?
Hi, I’m new to posting on this forum though I regularly read everything posted. I have been very grateful for what I have learned about AFib since it is not easy to find practical information about living with the condition. I am 99.9% certain my AFib was caused by the Pfizer covid vaccine and the electrophysiologist

tetanus booster and Covid vaccine
Hello I had a tetanus booster yesterday and I asked my GP if it was ok to get Covid vaccine next Thursday. He said he didn’t know and to check with primary care. When I saw the nurse she said it’s fine as both are inactivated. Does anyone know about this ? I tried finding out but haven’t managed to

just need a friend
hi everyone. based on my last posts you know I’ve been working on my anxiety. I recently did an IOP group which I found so helpful. This weekend on Friday I went out with my friends and drank more than I should have and had a panic attack about getting sick, but didn’t get sick. Yesterday I did a tasting

One Covid/Afib connection
I tested positive for Covid last week, and I was awakened the next night by a strong coughing attack for a few seconds that made me unable to catch my breath. My heart apparently responded the way its does to sleep apnea and jumped into arrhythmia before I could calm it with some deep nose breaths. This
