Dopamine stress test

Hi I'm due to have a dopamine stress test on my heart in which I will be injected with dopamine to medically speed up my hr whilst I'm lying on the bed. I've also been told they could use atropine also. Has anyone else had this done and has anyone any advice. Thank you xx Michelle

Practical suggestions for PWP. Drooling. Runny nose.

For drooling you can use a few eyedrops that contain atropine, put 3-4 drops in a cup of water and swish it in your mouth then spit it out especially before bed if nighttime drooling is a problem. For runny nose put a couple drops of atropine eye drops on a q-tip and swab your nose. Hang tough...cheers

Dementia and drooling

I'm caring for my husband who has dementia. He has a problem with drooling . Doctor prescribed atropine drops under his tongue which I find hard to administrate . Sometimes these drops make him very drowsy maybe too many drops . He did have patches behind his ears but seemed to cause more confusion

Nebuliser

Advice desperately needed. Pulmonologist has taken me off revlar ellipta and incruse as he said it’s not getting into lungs and prescribed atrovent and pulmicort nebulisers. After 6 days I’m certainly no better and maybe worse. I’ve finished the antibiotics and weaning off prednisone. My question for

Life after TURP

Hi all I refer to previous post asking about TURP. I had my TURP in August and have not had any serious pain and the flow is much better. I still do not have full control of my bladder, with bending lifting and to some extent walking causing leakage which is contained very well with Tena 3 pads. I continue

Escaping!

Joke, not actually escaping, but hopefully going home in the next few days with an urgent follow up at Bart's as an outpatient (not inpatient, at least that's what I've understood). They're likely gonna send me home with a nebuliser though, so just wondering if there's anything I should be asking of

Belladonna

Sorry something happened when writing this and instead of continuing as an answer to a post it has become a post. Atropine derived from Belladonna can be used for Bradycardia - very low heart rate, and also to stop respiratory secretions before surgery, and urinary frequency but only under medical

Adrenaline during asthma attacks

Anyone had this? How does it work? I had an adrenaline injection and the rest nebulised (along with hydrocortisone, magnesium, atrovent nebs, and salbutamol nebs) yesterday evening during a bad attack (silent parts of my chest again etc.). Not staying in any longer than needed being discharged today

Please help. How do I get rid of wheezing in my lungs after 3 long lung drainage sessions (including nasal sprays) a day? True, I have a cold. I have brochiectasis, sarcoidosis and lung fibrosis. The wheezing is really bothering me. Should I use my Atrovent inhaler more...would that help?

Safety of Stress Echocardiogram

I have been scheduled for a Dobutamine Stress Echocardiogram. I have stage 3A CKD. Dobutamine, atropine & an "dye" (not named) are used in this test. Are these likely to be harmful at all ?

Cryo ablation of AF -under sedation

Hi everyone, wasn’t sure about writing my update on my ablation Tues gone, it was terrifying. The following are my discharge summary. Then procedure was complicated by 1, a profound vasovagal episode requiring atropine and RV pacing. 2, severe pain during procedure 3, agitation causing ablation kit

Despite doing three long sessions of drainage for my Sarcoidosis, Lung Fibrosis and Brochiectasis, I still get tickling sensations in the left lung. This is affecting my sleep. It goes on and on. Grunting and clearing....grunting and clearing. I had a terrible night last night, hardly slept.

I observe all the 'helps' and guidance from my Lung Specialist for brochiectasis, Lung Fibrosis & Sarcoidosis. He suggested two puffs of my Atrovent inhaler 15 minutes before my two postural lung drainage sessions. I find that the inhaler traps mucus whereas without the inhaler I get a lot out.

Even though I do over 2 hours lung drainage every day (1 hour morning , 15 mins afternoon, then another hour evening) I still get a tickling sensation and mucus left in the lungs - particularly the left lung which is the worst one. It means I am grunting for much of the day. Annoying for me and my

Sinusitis side effect with Atrovent and Spiriva

Hi, after a flare up of asthma I was given Atrovent in addition to my Fostair, prednisolone, antibiotics (I had a raised temperature) and anti histamine. After a few days I developed sinus symptoms (which I’ve had on and off for years). I feel awful whenever I get this, not intense pain, but a pressure

Excess Mucous

My husband has excess mucous which causes him to cough all the time and he can’t ever really clear his throat which causes him to talk with a gurgle most times. The Neurologist has given him Atropine drops which helped initially but their affect has now worn off. The Neuro has now suggested Botox injections
