Meds vs Ablation
Hello all, I’m weighing the decision of meds vs ablation for my Afib. I am currently doing fine on meds, Xarelto and 50mg Flecainide 2x daily that my cardiologist prescribed. However, I am waiting on a referral to an electrophysiologist. While waiting, I am trying to learn and gather as much info

High platelets due to ET or MF is anyone on anticoagulants such as Clexane or Heparin?
If you are on anticoagulants what platelet numbers do you have? Are any of you also on hydroxycarbamide too?

Sore knee and pain gels
I know on Apixaban I can’t take an anti inflammatory or even the gels. I’ve got a painful knee. I asked in Boots about this stuff. Pharmacist said he couldn’t say. Anyone here heard of it, used it, know it’s ok with Apixaban? 😀

Psychiatric Somatisation disorder suggested before thyroid dysfunction diagnosis?
Just out of interest, how many people have been fobbed off with a suggestion or diagnosis of a psychiatric/psychological disorder whilst trying to get a diagnosis of thyroid dysfunction? I think it must be quite common. When it happened to me I was shocked. (Can you believe it?!) At the time I found

Flare dosage after tapering to zero
Hello everyone, hoping to tap your wisdom. I'm experiencing my first flare (aching neck, shoulders, temples; thankfullyno visual symptoms) since getting off pred in early March 2024. Rheumy on call wants me to take 40mg now as protection against vision loss. I was diagnosed with cranial GCA and PMR

Amlodipine
Hi everyone, Just been prescribed Amlodipine for high blood pressure to join one or two other drugs post Open Heart op 3 years a go. Trying to find out if it worsens RLS which I have suffered badly for years......since "quality sleep" is advised for high BP (which of course I never get) I do not want

Vertigo and fluid in ear
Hello, I have been suffering with vertigo for a few weeks. The doctor said it was to do with fluid behind the ear and I have been prescribed Betahistine, before that I was taking Prochlorperazine, neither seem to do much. I wonder if anyone here has had a similar experience and can offer any advice

Mtx and pantoprazol?
I really need to take some pantoprazole; however, it seems to not go well with MTX in particular. Before I started MTX (20 mg), I sometimes took pantoprazole 40 mg for 2-3 days to get rid of pain from reflux. It would settle, and I would be fine for a long time. Any experience with pantoprazole while

adalimumab side effects
Have been on adalimumab 2 weekly injections for nearly 3 months. Have noticed that I am losing an excessive amount of hair each time that I comb my hair. Also, I have been suffering from swollen legs /ankles over the past month without doing very much at all. Have previously needed to stop methotrexate

Why is my RO changing from Degerelix to Lupron after a month?
my husband started ADT treatment and RO informed him that after a month he will switch to Lupron. Is there a reason why he is doing this? As Lupron I read causes depression, anxiety. And if hopefully Degerelix works why change it? Can we request he not ? TIA.

loud buzzing all day and night, can’t sleep now unless the radio is on low, so stressful and feeling anxious
I’m 63 have had a bit of vertigo a few years ago but no hearing problems until this year, the noise is really loud, and sometimes if something metal or cutlery drops it makes my scalp shudder or twitch strange feeling

infusion
Hi, I am currently on 40mg of Adalimumab every 2 weeks but it is not working, the hospital have decided that an infusion of Rituximab is the next step, has anybody else had this treatment and did it work?

Recent PSP diagnosis
Hello everyone. My dad is 75 and for the last 4 years we have been on the understanding that he had gait apraxia. We saw a neurologist today who had been through his history over those years and has now diagnosed PSP-PAGF. I'm scared for him and what the future holds, not just for him, but for us as

Middle ear infection and antibiotics
Hi everyone, I have recently taken a short flight and experienced pain in my ears which is not unusual as the discomfort is usually a problem if I fly. Just as an aside my ears are always very sensitive in the winter months and cause earache. I have had them checked with GP and there is a middle ear
