Tachycardia with Aortic Stenosis?
I’m 72 and was diagnosed with aortic stenosis 3 years ago. At that time I was mild to moderate. I haven’t had a cardiologist for 2 years, so that was my last echocardiogram. My question: Did or do any of you have tachycardia with your stenosis? I’ve always had mitral valve prolapse and arrhythmias

Anyone else gone from 36mg to 54mg of Concerta XL and suddenly it no longer works?
Newbie here....was diagnosed with ADHD last month and was prescribed concerta xl. 18mg for one week and then onto 36mg for 3 weeks. It felt like it was working fine and being effective but it was suggested that I go up to 54mg. I started 54mg last Monday 20th and I was expecting the sudden 'Woah! That's

Robaxin muscle relaxer possible trigger ?
I could use some advice. Iron infusion didn’t offer full coverage and my ferritin skyrocketed over 1,000 and has remained there. So that’s on hold. Vimpat/lacosamide worked well for a bit then got spotty. Methadone 5 mg at 10 pm and another 5 usually between 1 & 3 am was working well. So the doctor

lab work 8 weeks post iron infusion - advice?
I had an infusion of Injectafer 750 mg on April 29 and had labs drawn exactly 8 weeks later per advice or information on this lifeline :) Now I would truly appreciate hearing some fellow RLS sufferers thoughts and advice on iron infusion and medications. I’m currently still symptomatic but much improved

vimpat / lacosamide stopped fully working
the Vimpat stopped working to completely resolve my RLS. Recent MRIs showed multiple Tarlov cysts on my spine, which is possibly causing the left leg pain and movement. It is positional and separate from the RLS in both legs in my arms and body. I see a new neurosurgeon next week. I’ve had multiple

Vimpat is working for severe RLS and PLMD
I’ve had almost complete resolution of my RLS on Vimpat (lacosamide) now at 150 mg at 10 am and 10 pm. This is a remarkable turnaround in my symptoms. I started on 50 twice a day and the effect started to wane with a tolerable amount of breakthrough RLS. I increased to 100 twice a day after several weeks

iron lab results 10 weeks post iron infusion
I have had four iron infusions in the last 2 years. 10 weeks ago I received Injectafer 1000 mg with so-so results. I had seen a hematologist at my neurologist/Sleep specialist’s urging out of his concern for my out of whack lab numbers. The hematologist was not concerned. I gave my sleep, specialist

Monomil XL 60mg Isosorbide Mononitrate
Hi Everyone. I finally started to take the half tablet last Monday. I've had a pretty bad week of side effects. But I haven't had any chest pain. It's too early to tell if the tablet is doing the trick. But I do wonder if I would benefit from increasing to the full dose of 60mg and whether doing that

Could Epilim and lacosamide/VIMPAT have something in common [type of medication?] that causes 'shakes',need to get some research done on it?
In 2016 I was taken off Epilim, I have JME epilepsy, I was on it for circa. eight years, with lamictal, but my hands shook so bad, fears it was Parkinson's disease, [my father had Parkinson's disease] I was 'tested' then subsequently again in 2021 both negative, I was put on Fycompa in 2016, the shaking
