AFIB and Heart Failure
This is my first post. In June 2012 I was diagnosed with AFIB & Heart Failure. My pulse rate was 160. The hospital cardiologist decided to treat me with the powerful drugs which they routinely prescribe instead of trying a cardioversion. Three miserable years later, after trying beta-blockers, ace inhibitors

Gastroparesis - A Novel Cause of Persistent Thyroid Stimulating Hormone Elevation in Hypothyroidism
Reading this case report I kept holding my breath. Surely he can't be suffering (or have suffered)

those disorders? Surely he can't be taking
ALL
those medicines? Surely if he has high TSH (no mention of FT4 - only that he was "clinically euthyroid") then it really doesn't matter why

i have primary lymphedema.
I have primary lymphedema and had leaking legs which ended up turning into an ulcer with green discharge. thankfully that has now healed and I have made to measure compression stockings which has helped to reduce the swelling a lot. The problem I now have is my ankles just do not seem to have gone down

Pomegranate Juice
I copied the following from the MedlinePlus website. Sorry for the long post but I thought some might find it interesting that one juice can impact so many things. How can anyone know what drugs or supplements really do to each of us since we are all physically different, eat differently, etc.? I

Hypothyroid and get pitting oedema.
Hi all. I am hypothyroid but I get pitting oedema in ankles and feet. Ii am on levothyroxine 125mg. This was recently increased from 100mg. I have breathing difficulties but lung consultant thinks this is due to incteased weight and lack of exercise. I am to see cardiologist as suspected angina. But

Fluid in my lungs and heart slightly enlarged
I have completed two courses of FCR but have been becoming quite breathless and with tightness in the lower neck/upper chest area. My consultant arranged for a chest x-ray which shows I have a little fluid in my lungs and a marginally enlarged heart. Could this have been caused by the FCR drugs or

Does anyone have experience with Humira for Takayasu's Arteritis ?
OUr niece aged 13 is currently on methotrexate, prednisone as well as frusemide, ramipril now stopped, omeprazole. On the outside she is positive but very tired a lot of the time. On the inside, is another story. She first went into hospital last April and it is nearly a year since she started treatment

Can anyone advise me on these blood results.
Doc stated all was normal except folic acid now prescribed 5mg per day for 3months (what of the results led the doc to diagnose this?) I originally went for blood tests to check B12 etc as advised on this site - does anyone know if the test results below indicate B vitamin issues? I am on levo 225 per

Have been told that Ramipril can cause AF. I take 10mg along with Bisoprolol 7mg, digoxin 250mg and furosemide 40mg,warfarin
for high bp and AF which has become persistent since November when I had bronchitis and then pleural effusion. Does anyone take this same concoction or know more about Ramipril.

Speedy meds
Went to the GP yesterday for an X-ray result. It showed some possible excess fluid on the lungs and a possible enlargement of my heart. I've also been putting on weight faster than a sumo wrestler and my ankles and feet have been swelling too. He immediately arranged a blood test with a follow-up

New to all this and looking for some guidance from those with more experience
I'm a previously fit and healthy man of 58 and have gone from a sore knee, then a swollen calf less than a year ago, through a spell in A & E with chronic kidney failure, and blood pressure of 260 over 190(!), to a diagnosis of localised scleroderma (anti RNA polymerase antibodies positive) and accompanying

So much medication.
I have been taking Dabigatran 150mg once a day for about eight weeks and it seems to suit me a lot better than warfarin but from what I have read lately it seems that I should be taking it twice daily. Is it possibly that because of other medication, ( Candesartan 32mg - Bisoprolol 2.5mg - Furosemide

Just back from seeing GP regarding my breathlessness
Managed to see GP this morning as been breathless for past 4 weeks. She had given me 7 day course of Prednisolone which I finished last weekend and it did no good at all. At that time she didn't think there was infection so no antibiotics. Today she sounded my chest and said she heard crackle and
