Effect of Alcohol Free Wine on your Liver
Hi all I'm new to this website and am seeking advice about alcohol free wine. I'm trying very hard not to drink alcohol other than at a week-end as my recent blood tests weren't the best. I've been told my liver damage can be reversed but I'm finding it difficult not to drink. I'm trying to get by on

AF /heart failure. I was "accidentally" diagnosed during a preop about 18 months ago. (I'd complained of shortness of breath and other things previously)Both atria affected. To cut the story, I've only been on a blood thinner since, not seen my doctor for 3months and only very recently become aware

CSR a year on
Hi, about a year ago I posted about my distorted vision and fear of having WetAMD. A year on and numerous visits to opticians and hospitals it’s definitely Chronic CSR, including the original & current episode I’ve had 4 occurrences in 12 months, 1 with no visual effects and 1 with very minor distortion

LIver problems and blood pressure reduction medication.
I have a non alcoholic fatty liver which has recently registered an average of 53kpa following a recent fibrescan. I have been taking 5mg of Ramapril for high blood pressure over a number of years. My question is: Is there any evidence that blood pressure reducing drugs, such as Ramapril, have any effect

I am new here.
I have had 8 Eylea injections for Wet AMD in my Right eye which has worked very well and I am being kept under observation by the hospital but I was told that Macu Shield tablets may help the Dry AMD in my left eye but I am reluctant to try these as I can't get much information about them. Has anyone

Anxious about blood test results
I'm have anxiety and now that I've had mildly elevated ast and alt I'm going crazy over what the cause could be. My ast alt ratio is greater than 2 but maybe I'm just in denial but I didn't think I drank enough to have alcoholic liver disease. Now I'm just over analyzing every senerio. Could have been

Cataract complication - YAG laser capsulotomy
Hello all! I know there are several of us who had cataract surgery due to prednisone. In my case they showed up and progressed so quickly they had to be removed less than a year after initially developing. It was shocking when I could not drive at night due to them so I was thrilled when I had an amazing

ACE Inhibitors can cause a decrease in kidney function with Cox 2 Inhibitors
I stopped taking Meloxicam a couple of weeks ago. From searching the web, I read that some doctors prescribe ACE inhibitors (lisopril, quinapril, etc) for CKD. I used a drug interaction checker and it is recommended to not take an ACE Inhibitor along with a Cox 2 Inhibitor (Meloxicam, Celebrex, etc

Great news, not so great news and the AMD learning curve
My 1st Eylea injection in my left eye was June last year after which I've gone from every 4, then eventually 6, 8, 10 and now a 12 week gap between injections. The great news is that after my next injection in another 12 weeks they will stop but continue to monitor as the wet MD is pretty well dry now

Any suggestions to manage orthostatic hypotension?
My Dad has been diagnosed with PD - 4 years ago. He is on lc and that controls his tremors and relieves rigidity. When he reduced his lc recently those symptoms were significantly worse. Mostly he manages pretty well in his new home environment, but suffers increasingly with fainting / dizzy spells

Asked for copies of rheumy to GP letters copied to me as well. Actually happened!
I've had two rheumy appts in the last two weeks. The first, which I wrote earlier about, has me joining a wide ranging research into auto immune disorders . Out of that appt I also got a referral to oral medicine and a scan of my glands. I'm glad for this because the mouth and throat particularly are
