Father not waking up after septic shock
My beloved Dad (72) survived a severe septic shock. They called us 3 Weeks ago after a routine bile surgery and told us that he is now in the ICU. They told us he had internal bleeding and they needed to perform surgery on him. We were shocked and prayed that night that everything would go well. He survived

Tale of woe, sort of
I've been on ticagerol 90 and other meds (bisoprolol, aspirin, Losartan, etc) since my heart attack in May 2021, with second stent inserted via rotablation in Nov 2021. The surgeon said to continue the blood thinners for a year. I was originally treated at Luton and Dunstable hospital (L&D), and the

Anyone had EMDR
Hi all like so many on here we all know how our mental health suffers following the sort of cardiac problems we all have. I’ve been told a few times due to My 2 x HT and quadruple CABG all within a month and what I’ve seen at work I probably have PTSD well that’s now been confirmed and I have to say

2023 started on a downer again.
We’ll I thought after my 2 x MI and my quadruple CABG in 2022 I was hoping 2023 would be better and I’m sure it will but yesterday on the first of a new year I ended up at A and E. At least it’s not my heart at least I don’t think so, pain swelling and a lump in my groin, I think it’s an infected lymph

Antidepressant recommendations
Well, my anxiety and depression just keep getting worse. Nearly unbearable now.What types of antidepressants have any of you had experience/success with during the transition off of the DAs? I have not been able to conclusively blame my symptoms on either the lack of dopamine or the soboxone. For those

Lovely topic!!! Constipation
morning Recently had heart attack and now recovering at home after stent insertion and on the routine meds Any advice for constipation not normally an issue will this be an ongoing problem as a side affect of meds or will it improve as time goes on and activities increase? Diet and fluids are good

Lining update!
Just a quick update for those of you with lining issues 😆. I've managed to get to 6.6 today on my first scan which is a record for me on the first scan! Just waiting to see whether we will go ahead with an FET or they want to see me again in a few days. I've been taking 4x progynova, 1 x patch every

Ashwaganda?
I just saw someone posting on another site that Ashwaganda has really helped their RLS. Does anyone have any thoughts on this please? I currently take Tramadol but only when desperate as I don't really want to be dependent on any drug if I can avoid it. However I have had to appreciate that I am taking

Reason to be cheerful
Obvs a lot of people are really worried about heart diseases in this forum. TBH I sometimes share those concerns ... but in general I try to post positive reassuring posts about CHD and CAD. I'm 63 (64 in a few days) and have been really busy with a nerdy consultancy project. Quite by chance the project

Do you want you doctor to prescribe an opioid instead of DA ?John Hopkins statistics on both.
This may help you when requesting an opioid verses the doctor wishing to prescribe DA https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/neurology_neurosurgery/centers_clinics/restless-legs-syndrome/what-is-rls/treatment.html I am typing this information direct from John hopkins treatment article. An estimated 85%

So fed up, after CABG worse off.
I don't know if anyone remembers me. I had a triple bypass on 16th September followed by internal bleeding, severe AF, a collapsed lung and fluid on the lung. Two days after discharge I was rushed back in to my local hospital with a saddle PE, PEs in both lungs and a clot in my heart. These had clearly

Herbal remedies
Hi All, has anyone had any feedback or tried various natural remedies. A friend of mine recommended Muccuna l dopa capsules and Tumeric root extract capsules to help with rls. Only started taking these for a few weeks so no real progress yet. Just want to come off the prescribed medication. Currently

Angiogram vs Angioplasty
I have had 6 stents and triple bypass. Each time I had a stent put in, they started out as angiogram and became angioplasty, each time they went in they put in a stent if needed, except that one time when I needed bypass. Now my Cardiologist wants to do an angiogram, then discuss his findings with me

Restless Legs using sleeping pill
I have had RLS for years. It started getting irritating in my 40's and continued to get worst. I am now 85 and on Methadone, trying to withdraw from it because it is hard to get in Las Vegas. I am down to .5mg at night. I gave up my noon pill because of constipation.. I was getting very little sleep

Sertraline
I think I know what everyone is going to say but does anyone have anything positive to say about sertraline and restless legs? If anybody followed my previous post I have stage 4 breast cancer and need a mild antidepressant to help me cope. Having chatted with my GP we both feel I would benefit more

Neupro patch stopped working
I have been on a 2mg Neupro patch for the last few years, I have had good success with it and it has given me great relief in the past. In the last few weeks they have stopped working and I now find I have to take an opiate every night to get any sleep I can.I am thinking of trying Buprenorphine ....

Let's Talk Kidney Issues
I had a stone removed from my right ureter 2 years ago; the preceding and subsequent CT scans showed stones in both kidneys. 6 months ago I went in for a follow up CT and found a stone completely blocking the left ureter (no pain). Surgeon removed the stone it but the kidney is only functioning at 18%
