Flying whilst having an episode of AF
Morning This is my first post on this forum but I have found it really resssuring. I just wondered whether people had been on a flight whilst having an episode of AF? I am paroxysmal at the moment but have found that my episodes are lasting at least 2 days and then only getting 1 day respite before

Can anyone help?
I have purchased some Deep Heat muscle rub thinking it would help my aches and pains, but on the leaflet enclosed it states that people taking anticoagulants should not use it owing to the ingredients interacting with this medication. I take Warfarin. Does anyone know if there is a safe lubricant that

longer episodes of afib
hi,I guess I'd like to have opinions on longer episodes of afib, like 10 + days or longer. apart from the obvious actions such as keeping one's blood thin and resistant to clotting by either utilizing drugs or alternative blood thinning agents, is there anything else that one should consider, such as

Extremely high BP 6 weeks after ablation
I had ablation 2 months ago for increasing incidence of paroxysmal SVT. I have a very low resting heart rate and low BP history, very stable after Aortic valve replacement 6 years ago. Suddenly 6 weeks post ablation my BP's have been scary high and I've had associated dull headache, neck discomfort

Hydrocodone to Tramadol?
So the USA ran out of Hydrocodone 10/325 due to DEA putting limits on annual production. My last fill was 11-6-23. Luckily I had saved up 90 units for emergency (proof I'm not abusing) but that ran out yesterday. I asked my doc to prescribe tramadol hcl 50mg to get by until production resumes. Started

Metoprol and arrythmias
Thanks first for all the comments in the past. I have long taken Toprol (now Metoprol in the last few weeks), 16 years, before I was diagnosed with Afib recently. And I noticed, through the years, that, say, ten minutes after taking it, I felt a very brief irregularity that then went away. Do any

Low heart rate while resting
Hey guys. I'm kinda worried about my resting heart rate. If I'm sitting or laying it can go as low as 48bpm, even in sitting. My range is mostly between 48 and 56/57. As soon as I get up my heart rate also jumps quickly and sometimes I get a bit dizzy for few seconds like you would normally get when

The Day I Raced My Palliative Care Nurse
I’m coming off the mountain top! What an incredible experience and I’m sure Nurse Sarah (not her real name) feels the same! I was smiling and laughing all the way home from my hospital! So much fun! I can only say in my life that my wife’s birth to our daughters surpasses this. The only thing that

Below range neutrophils and hypothyroidism - the Link between…….
This subject was touched on within another post but I’d like to open up a new post and discussion about this issue please? I thought it was coincidental that Since becoming hypothyroid due to a partial thyroidectomy, my kappa lambada neutrophil ratio has been consistently testing just below range,

Blood test results advice please
Hello againThanks to those who responded to my last post. I have had time to digest and gone though all my various blood test results and would appreciate any advice. Background recap, I had a partial thyroidectomy (left side removed due to large nodule) in April 2023. No idea why the nodule grew,

Vomorolone vs Prednisone
Vomorolone is not currently approved for use in treatment of PMR. I'm just posting this so everyone is aware of its existence. There are also currently no clinical trials for its use with PMR, but here is what preplexityai.com says: https://www.perplexity.ai/search/are-there-any-clinical-trials-hK1KGkNsRcG1XeWQNI5g4g

Help: Use of ODM 208 during Phase 3 clinical trials to replace Docetaxel for treatment after Abiraterone - Case Peru
Hello, my father suffers from prostate cancer with bone metastasis.
