Begging for correct diagnosis
Hi everyone, my post will be long, so thanks in advance for taking your time to read. I feel hopeless and losing my hope to live and enjoy a life, reading some of your posts making me feel that at least I am not alone. I am a 36 year old Turkish Cypriot origin woman living in the UK who have been trying

My local pharmacy can take an age with normal repeat medication, like statins and
anticoagulants
, so I'm wondering where the delay is. What is other people's experience of this?

HAS-BLED risk score and IBS/IBD
How can patients with IBS or IBD have their condition taken into account when GPs enter data into the algorithm prior to prescription of NOAC medication? Has anyone managed to persuade their doctor to assess them holistically before risking anticoagulation medication?

AF lifestyle
All my life, I've been outdoors and active. Fifty of those 77 years has been working as an outdoor instructor/mountain guide, sometimes at altitude in the European Alps. Twelve years ago I had ablation surgery for Atrial Fibrillation. It worked okay until recently. Cardio inspections recently found

Strange Experience
Has anyone had a similar experience? I suddenly had an excruciating pain half-way down my calf on the outside of my right leg. This lasted about 12 hours but was on the same level as the pain I had when I had pulmonary embolisms 2 years ago. It was accompanied by a type of 'cramp' feeling round my entire

Apixaban
Hi, I've just been prescribed apixaban and bisoprolol due to AF, I'm a bit worried to take apixaban due to the change of lifestyle you need to take, am I getting overly concerned or is there precautions I need to take, also we like to have many continental holidays yearly and I've read some travel insurance

Update after hysterectomy for adenomyosis
I posted here just over a week ago with the background and my pre-operative anxieties: https://healthunlocked.com/endometriosis-uk/posts/150262788/adenomyosis-should-i-have-hysterectomy so I thought I'd update. When I went in to hospital I was still quite ambivalent and fearful. But when I talked to

Wolf MiniMaze
I am in Texas at the current time. I had the Wolf Mini Maze on December 6th and have my follow-up appointment with Dr. Wolf tomorrow morning before flying back to my home state of MI on Wednesday. No more blood thinners needed since he used the AtrialClip on the LAA appendage. The cost of my medication

piles and edoxoban
