I’m sorry I’m so unsure of what my figures should be - little background info - approx 25 years ago had thyroid removed due to multinodular goiters - 6years ago had Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (discharged with clear arteries) which my doctor indicated could be due to too much thyroxine so reduced me from

Bypass next week
Hi, I am going in for a CABG (sternotomy) in 9 days time, I had a double bypass via a midcab 5 years ago which didnt fully work so here we go again. On my previous op I was discharged with large dressings which I wore for a few weeks, but reading the paperwork I have been given it says I will be discharged

Ureteral stricture after transplant with no success after attempting stent and ballooning
Hello:) I just had my third kidney transplant in December. I had multiple pre transplant day long meetings to decide the best option for me having a third transplant and it was decided my fiance would donate and we would do paired exchange as a live donor and planned transplant would be for the best

Thoughts on my pain issue
I was diagnosed in Jan 2021 with PMR and have dropped from 20 mg prednisone to 4mg. Initially I had pain in many places. for the past 3-4 months I only have issues with pain or tightness in my pelvis/hips and shoulders. My last visit to my Rheumy on May 2nd I was trying to get to 3.5 mg and was not

Ropinirole Reduction
Hello, some advise needed please. I have been trying to reduce my Ropinirole dose from 2mg to 1.5 mg for the past 3 weeks. For the first few nights all was well but this didn’t last long as the RLS kicked in again. I used to use Ropinirole before I augmented, then went to Pramipexole and I seem to

Should I ask for a echocardiogram?
I'm in A &E at the moment having started with short, sharp chest pains early this morning. My first lot of bloods come back ok, troponin just 6, awaiting results of second trop result. I had Nstemi, angiogram and stent fitted December last year. Pain was nothing like I had today. I've been back to A

Struggling to exercise
Hi, I had a heart attack a year ago with a stent, and had an echocardiogram a few weeks ago and just got a letter 2 days ago telling me I had basal inferior hypokinesis (whatever that is!). I had no cardiac classes just phone calls due to covid. I started exercise at home with the best of intentions

Missed Ropinirole Doses
Yep, I'm still on it, don't ask! BUT, I've had food poisoning and missed three doses - Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I've woken up this morning feeling like I've been hit over the head with a sledgehammer. I thought it would be fine to resume taking it at my normal time tonight (Monday) but a quick search

What a ride
Hello all, I've been browsing this forum recently and there's so much warmth and advice given that I'd like to share my story and hopefully receive some reassurance/advice in return. I'm a 44 year-old man who's a single father to a beautiful 14 year-old daughter. The last few years have not been kind

Ciprofloxacin Horror!
I don’t know where to start. I had been taking this drug for over a year until two days ago when I stopped it myself. I was prescribed it last April while in hospital with ARLD and alcohol hepatitis. I was very poorly and since recovered from it. My first blood tests after discharge were normal but

Beta HCG elevation
Morning ladies. I tried to explain to the GP that my clinic requested a Beta blood test to confirm pregnancy. They couldn’t get me in until late this month. I did a little research and there is a company on line - Medichecks. I sent off a blood sample and voilà 783 on day 13 after 5dt 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🤞🏻

Completely beat physically and emotionally
At the age of 45 I experienced intermittent chest pain (even when at rest), sweats, headaches and fatigue. I was sent packing from A&E as tests were normal. I saw a cardiologist privately and they found a critical blockage of my LAD. I was reassured that I was fixed with a stent and all my risks were

Lexapro withdrawal symptoms
Anyone have experience with weaning off lexapro as it is antagonst for RLS. I have cut dose in half to 5 mg and have been doing that for 3 weeks. I will continue the cut back to 5 mg every other day and keeping fingers crossed I can move on without an antidepresssant anymore. I have experienced a myriad

Advanced PCa & Kidney Disease
I'm getting a CT scan soon to follow up on my ADT failure. They are concerned that there may be sign of kidney disease. It seems like it's relatively common in PCa warriors, so I'm presuming people have experience. I just checked on the kidney disease symptoms and I seem to have most of them. My onco

Hi there (newbie)
Well, here I am led in the bath…..at 00:09am! And I’m utterly shattered for these regular (nightly) twilight baths to help my legs from constantly moving in the bed, no matter what my ‘sleeping’ position (sleep, what was that again?). My restless legs joined my body a couple of years ago but would annoy
