BEWHARE OF THESE MEDS
I have a prolapsed bladder and am using a pessary. My OBGYN felt I should use an insert to help strengthen my vagina walls. She prescribed Intrarosa 3x a week. I believe in Homeopathy and at 91 only take a mild blood pressure pill. She assured me that since this is topical there was no need to worry

diamox SR 250mg
I have recently been prescribed the above medication to reduce my ocular pressure due to complications during cataract surgery. My muscles have ached so much that I am glad to say I will be taking my last tablet in an hour. It did say in the patient leaflet that this could happen but fortunately none

3 weeks and counting!
Morning everyone. 🌄 Hoping you are all keeping safe and well as spring is on its way! 😊 3 weeks since cataract surgery, all seems to be going well and all much clearer. I was not impressed with actual operation BUT end result good and having other eye done March 15th. A week later started Clarithromycin

A week since my first cataract op.
Hello All, Not been on line a lot as not long had one cataract sorted. Next one due at the end of January. Was asked to stop apixaban 3 days before with no problems. All quite easy and no problems - apart from my wanting to rub my eyes when tired - which is quite often. Wife doing all the drops and

Iopidine after SLT
As I am so allergic to most eye drops yesterday I had SLT as the pressure has been going up. I read that after having this you can have a pressure spike and was really worried because after my cataract surgery the pressure went from 20 to34 and I had to take Acetazolamide for two weeks which made me

fatty liver
does anyone know the average size of a liver for a woman who’s 50. I’ve been told that mine is 12.5 which indicates fatty liver. 12 months ago my liver was normal. I stopped drinking and now it’s fatty. I’m so confused and having no support. Some advise say no dairy then others say it’s ok

ELF score 8.3
I have had several elastography tests, the last one the same week as I took ELF test. It was 4.8kpa, but ELF test shows moderate fibrosis (8.3). Its seems ELF test is more accurate, because on this forum I have found several people who feel smth is wrong with their liver that have normal elastography

macular oedema and cataracts
I am so pleased that I saw a consultant who wanted my sight to improve not be stable. She offered me Ozurdex and said it could give me cataracts. I said to her that I am on long term steroids for my polymyalgia rheumatica. She looked at my cataracts, said they were moderate but would refer me to the

Friend has high LFTs
Hi, My friend has high AST (150), ALT (115) and GGT (415). Thry have high blood pressure too. They've stopped drinking alcohol but are now terrified to go to the doctor and get scan results and want to ignore it. Will this definitely be bad news?

Fluid restrictions ASCITES
My serum sodium is 137 mmol/L. Completely in normal range (133-146). I am taking spironolactone 300mg and furosemide 80mg. My question is how much do I need to restrict fluid intake for ascites due to cirrhosis?
