So went to A and E today at the request of the arrhythmia nurse for CT scan to check about this bleeding as they thought it could have been damaged from the op but glad to say nothing was found and it all looks good. Still do t know where the bleeding is from but I still think it was from my mouth somewhere. It’s been a long day. I’m looking in to homeopathy for my heart as I’ve heard of a heart tonic , got to do more research but it’s something to think about. Thank you to everyone on here and all the kind words and advice.😊

My youngest daughter had a period of spitting up blood when she was young and went into hospital for it to be investigated. It was coming from her adenoids and they were removed. That was the end of the problem. I wonder if you could have something similar?

Hi, well I still think it’s from my gums because they bled when I did my teeth but the only other thing is I had covid at the same time so maybe that was a link.

Ahhhh - that would be it. Quite a few studies showing this could be a cause.

Another interesting Nugget! Is that on the Zoe study?

It’s a homeopathic principle - like cures like eg: you don’t prescribe anti-histamine but a below clinical dose of histamine but homeopathy is rarely just about prescribing a treatment.

As far as pharmaceuticals are concerned - all you need to do is to read the leaflet of any drug - and you will find on the warnings of what is aiming to treat will also - eg: an antiarrythmic drug may cause arrythmia.

The precise channel regarding the tittinus would be interesting to know but the fact that it’s listed as possible cause and that someone has gained relief from taking it ……….. Maybe? 2+2=5, I don’t know

What I do know from experience is that my drug which treats symptoms of my Myasthenia is perfect example - take exactly the correct amount and my symptoms vanish, take a little bit too much and I go into a cholinergic reaction - unfortunately unless I can tell the hospital if it’s the disease or the drug causing the symptoms - they can’t treat.

Sorry wrong reply to wrong person - bleeding gums/COVID was mentioned on ZOE last year but this is more reliable

I found that by switching from an ordinary to sonic toothbrush made a big difference. Boots sell one. It's worth the investment. When I got lazy and started hand brushing or irregular brushing, the bleeding showed up. Much better now.
