OK thanks for that

My Kidneys are feeling a little sore and it's been 4 months since a blood test hence my question. I didn't know if it was a sudden failure or a slow decline .

Thanks Again

Thought the nauseous feeling I have could be due to Entresto have since spoken to my doctor this morning who says he doesn’t think so

I am on the higher dose now but just before my right hand and middle finger felt stiff and since has been quite painful and swollen. Doctor took bloods and no sign of rheumatoid arthritis. I need to speak to her again. Now the heart failure team have got me on the higher dose they have put me on the 'pending' list. I also get aches in my shoulders and legs. Feeling nauseous, stomach upsets. Has anyone else had problems with sneezing and having to blow their nose?

Not what you're looking for?
