Hi Ushers, Welcome. This place is a god send. Lots of support. It will be imperative that you stop or have stopped drinking completely. Alcohol will be the big no no when you are assessed. Start to eat healthily, cut down on your salt intake and hopefully things will start to improve. Let us know how things are going, and dont be afraid to join in.

Yeh thanks,since my first bleed five years ago after the initial oh shit I’m going to die,soon disappears ,I got stuck into as much research as possible,that night was my last glass ,I don’t have salt and I think the only way to monitor it ,is to scratch make everything from organic food if possible although expensive,I love cooking anyway which makes not buying processed food easier.
