Can you keep focus in large group settings?
Hi all. I have ET Jak2 positive. I take hydroxycarbamide, blood thinners and statins. I really struggle to focus in a large group setting e.g. a party or meeting. People talk to me and I feel as though they go out of focus. I can nod, show appropriate reactions etc but communication on my end is limited

WHAT TO TAKE TO BOOST IMMUNE SYSTEM
I am reaching out to you wonderful people again - does anyone know what I can take to boost my immune system. I have seen products advertised that do this but the drugstore pharmacist told me that when you have afib you can't take anything for it. I have a sore throat and before I had afib I would take

Tummy problems with blood thinners
Started Apixaban 2 months ago and had immediate problems with tummy upsets and loose stool, so changed to Edoxaban but still having difficulty with control. Can anyone identify with this issue, please? It is really getting me down. Many thanks

low heart rate at night
My hr is going low at night, well below 60 at night, looks like from app all night, which I’m not happy with. I have had NO checks what so ever on a voluntary basis from GP , in fact I’d asked couple of weeks ago when I visited to be passed off, casually said don’t take the Bisoprolol and then don’t

anticoagulant and injections for Macular degeneration?
I am on anticoagulant for Afib, I just had a 2nd injection for wet macular degeneration. I am concerned about how safe I am with taking these two drugs? Please let me know your thoughts as I am worried!

hi I’m on edoxaban 60mg once a day for suspected AF which they are on the fence with. They can’t say my Apple Watch is 100 💯 correct but they can’t say it’s 💯 incorrect. So they are flummoxed. So as a precaution they’re keeping me on the blood thinners. I’ve been on it now for around six months. But

Are Blood Pressure levels relevant to the Anticoagulant decision?
That excellent communicator York cardiology has just done a video on blood pressure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7V7DssSbSE . This included the simple definitions: The Systolic blood pressure. This is when the heart is pumping and ejecting blood into the vascular system and therefore is the highest

Liothyronine over or under.
Is it possible that too much liothyronine may stall weight loss please. I have been on liothyronine only 60mcg daily for at least ten years it was 80 before that. I suffered two mini strokes in July and was given a blood thinner told to stay active and lose weight and despite strict low carb walking

My first anticoagulation clinic
This occurred yesterday at a large London Hospital. I was seen by a young pharmacist with 4 years experience, and who had been in the anticoagulation unit for 5 months. The decision of others not present was the recommendation that I start Apixaban, rather than the now usually recommended Edoxaban
