Give me a break!
So after contracting shingles in the eye over 4 & 1/2 months ago I’m still suffering with post herpetic neuralgia. Tried all sorts of drugs and a nerve block injection and nothing has helped. Initially the hospital upped my steroids from 12mg I was on to 25mg as they weren’t sure if it was GCA. After

Treatments for Erythromelalgia
Hello, Community. I have Lupus, severe Raynaud's and a long history of secondary erythromelalgia of my feet. It has got steadily worse over the last few years and the persistent effects are now deemed to be ischaemia reperfusion injury. It is much worse when the weather is hot or I have been walking

High respiratory efforts in COVID-19 patients could result in self-inflicted lung injury
The impact of high breathing efforts on the lungs of patients suffering with acute respiratory failure due to COVID-19 has been investigated by researchers at the University of Warwick, who assessed the likelihood of resulting lung injury. Although mechanical ventilation is a life-saving intervention

1 Year On - Not How I Expected Things To Be
1 year ago, last night, I was taken by Ambulance to the local A&E, from which I was admitted to the local Cardiology Ward, for the second time in a few months, and after being told I needed an operation fairly soon if I was to survive. Within the week I was transferred to Essex CTC where I was to undergo

recent diagnosed with grade 1 diastolic dysfunction heart failure.
I am 78years old, recent diagnosed with grade 1 diastolic dysfunction heart failure. Have any of you had the same diagnoses, what are you doing for it, and how long does it take to move from grade 1 to 4. Anxiety lever very high, and would appreciate any ideas from you. Thank you.

Anyone had a MRN? Prolotherapy? Interstim or neuromodulator for pudental nerve issues?
Hi. Has anyone had a MRN- which is a MRI Neuro graphy to diagnose issue with pudental nerve? I know a diagnostic pudental nerve block can be done but am wondering if there is an actual test that someone had that can find “where” the pudental nerve is being compressed or entrapped ? Also- anyone have

High Cholesterol
Hi, anyone else experience high cholesterol despite having a healthy weigh/diet? I’m 35 and so not smoke. Currently feeling so anxious, my cholesterol is high 5.7 😢 the nurse further scared me by saying how this increases my risk of heart attack and stroke. I do experience chest heaviness and palpitations

Arm pain right & left- Bisoprolol?
Experiencing above along with chest pain over past Week. Stats all normal. Replacement AVR last year, surgery was traumatic- wrong size valve - had to be replaced- surgical mess caused a clot and HA. Had to be resuscitated when having angioplasty to remove clot. Artery had to be stented. Recurring effusions
