Rivaroxaban a nd flu jab
My annual flu jab comes tomorrow but my wife beat me by a day for hers. Before injection, she was asked if she took any blood thinners and replied no. Got me wondering, as I take a daily dose (10mg) of Rivaroxaban. Might that mean I am excused the jab when I turn up? Would be mightily upset if that

BAT, dutasteride, and my search for truth, Part 1 of 2
I have received many helpful comments on my queries about BAT and dutasteride. Overall, the evidence favors continuing dutasteride during BAT (Nalakrats opined “I would use to defend against DHT, which would be increased. And I would watch E2, and not let it get out of the 20's.”) But I have trouble

Fragmin and warfarin
I have calmed down enough to write this post, took me a couple of hours. I’m currently in hosp with nasty pneumonia not for the first time this year, my heart and lungs are knackered and are on their last legs certainly living on borrowed time now, docs are somewhat surprised I’m still here. I have

Anyone had lipoatrophy?

Skin issues
Good morning all! As an FYI I wanted to share with all of you a product line that seems to be working very well for my skin. It’s from a site called www.DermaHarmony.com I have been looking for skin products for quite some time as my skin can take on some kind of an oily plaque-ish feeling/look from

3 days post laparoscopy, aftercare advice?
Had my first laparoscopy on wednesday, was diagnosed with stage 1 and 2 endo with my left tube having adhered to the pelvic wall. All this was removed and fixed :) I struggled with properly waking up from the anaesthetic, and all i can remember with aftercare is done get the wounds wet, and that i can

Given contradictory information
I've just been told by a hematologist that Warfarin does not effect the blood screen outcome. He said that Apixaban can but not Warfarin. An APS specialist advised that I should come off all anti-coagulants if I am to decided to repeat the screen. Not sure who is correct and I find people arguing both

Your "failed to return" strategy
The tragic circumstances around Chris Smiths' failure to return home after his run and subsequent death has brought the subject to mind (again). Since my husband, Paul has done his MTB leader course, and his outdoor first aid, we've discussed it frequently. We're both bad for taking off without giving

Hypercoagulability in patients with COVID-19
According to an open-access article in ARRS’ American Journal of Roentgenology (AJR), because coronavirus disease (COVID-19) may present with medium to large arterial and venous abdominal and extremity macrothrombi, radiologists should raise concern for COVID-19 when identifying thromboembolic abdominopelvic

Flu jab before or after cardioversion
I am due to have DC cardioversion in 10 days. Any thoughts on whether I should have flu jab this week or post cardioversion. I wouldn’t want the side effects of the flu jab to bring on AF and makes the CV meaningless. Thoughts very much appreciated. Thank you

Mixed up Monday 10k tarmac, leafy lanes and the trail by the riverside
Yikes back to virtual school lessons for my two girls again, the schools a no-go zone covid has got to their year groups.

When will hair loss stop?
My daughter has been very upset. She had finished her injections three weeks and she will have another one in two days time. But she is still losing a lot of hair. I m finding it hard to reassure her. I feel I should talk the gp again but what should I say? More blood test?

Avoid The Lifetime Penalty
Hopefully this information helps those in the US, over 65, avoid some of the trauma and drama I faced when trying to enroll in a Medicare Supplemental Plan. Bumper sticker version: Avoid the Lifetime Medicare Part B Penalty and put in for Medicare Part B as soon as you know you won’t be covered under

Rivaroxaban and Thread Veins
Hi, I've been taking Rivaroxaban after a 2nd unprovoked - significant, large volume PE in January 2019. I wondered if anyone has developed a lot of dark purple thread veins in legs since taking Rivaroxaban. I was taking Warfarin for the first HRT provoked PE in 2010 and didn't experience this effect
