Experiences with

I had an acute coronary syndrome in 2015 and I had a stent at that time. I fear the Lp (a) will progress my CVD and in particular the heart valve disease.

“Women taking beta blockers for hypertension with no prior history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) have a nearly 5% higher risk for heart failure than men when they present to hospital with acute coronary syndrome” i’m not exactly sure what this means but now this is greatly worrying me...i’m only 18

Cardiovascular events, including heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, thromboembolic stroke, and other thromboembolic events, were confirmed using predefined criteria and source data.

If I have antibodies flagged as "high" on a blood test which are associated with Sjogren's (Anti-SS-B), Polymyositis (Anti-Jo-1) and SLE (Ribosomal P), does that mean I have all three autoimmune diseases?

Hi all, Looking for similar experiences here, hope you ladies don’t mind. So our little euploid embryo (our last one!), which we had PGS tested last year, is now unbelievably 14 weeks! I need to pinch myself everyday - it has been an emotional roller coaster every week! Last week when we had our dating

Has anyone had this? I’ve never seen someone have this so early before. It’s normally a lot later on in pregnancy! We have a referral to Fetal medicine tomorrow and I’m worried

Hello everyone. I’m just looking for a little bit of hope. My first round of IVF failed, I didn’t even make it to two weeks - I miscarried at 5 days post transfer despite being maxed out on hormones. We had our remaining embryos tested and they had chromosomal abnormalities and had to be discarded. So

Does anyone have experience of this condition? I've been told that it is a component in unclassified connective tissue disease - in other words, doctors aren't sure what it is that I have - I certainly have morphea and scleroderma plus this. Can anyone add any information on this? Has caused the skin

Onycholysis.... anyone else have this? I had this 6 months ago my thumbs are symmetrical in damage and now it's flared up on my left hand really bad. I'm wondering if I'm having a flare up or have rheumatoid arthritis as well as hashimotos..my little fingers swollen and painful. I'm taking multivitamins

Hello lovelies, I’m sure you’ve all felt like this at some point but today I feel truly fed up. My cyst was still there at my second can yesterday and now have to wait another week to see if it goes on it’s own with my period.

Hiya.. how do I stop myself from having hitting tics? I randomly try to hit my 13 year old shihztu when I'm angry and I don't know why. Is it apart of autism or am I having a different tic with another problem with me?

I had some blood test to see if I meet the criteria for biologocal asthma treatments, my cons told me my eosinophils count needs to be 0.3 or above and my last count in October was 0.4.

Not much I can say I hoped after losing our daughter Amelia at 20 weeks pregnant this was my happy ending but it's not to be. 😢 I feel devastated that it hasn't ended how we wanted but we will continue to try again and not be beaten and focus on our daughter Francesca after 7 years of trying she is

We have four beautiful blastocysts waiting on ice for us in Greece and were due to have a transfer in Feb. But due a logistical nightmare because of covid, we’ve decided to delay this until Spring when hopefully travel to Greece should be bit less stressful. But I am just feeling so sorry for myself
