The Cause of my Afib - a short essay but a long post!
Apparently as human beings we are programmed to look for causes. It seems to be a stage many of us Afibbers go through despite the good advice of those with more knowledge and experience. So I thought it could be helpful to share my own journey through the folly of myth making and lost causes. And

Coincidence?
I was doing very well on peg interferon, which I started in July. I felt loads better than I had for a long time, with negligible side effect. However, the last few weeks I have been really tired and getting breathless after the slightest movement. I had my blood results on Tuesday, my haemoglobin had

FDA Warning: Covid & Flu Vaccines

Waiting game
Hi everyone, I don't have the flu jab, mainly because I have so much pain in my arm and it makes me feel so unwell, doctor not happy as I have severe COPD, not had the jab for last 3 years, touch wood do not suffer from colds flu etc. No covid follow ups either. Call me stupid, but we all do what is

Careful about vaccinations....
You think i'd learn that people voice opinions about taking vaccinations, but they are people without MS. I heard over and over again that it was safe to take both your flu vaccination and your Covid-19 current updated vaccination on the same day. Well, for me, that wasn't exactly the smartest thing

SIRVA
anyone have any experience with SIRVA? I am confident I am struggling with this in my left arm. It is not from B12 but from a flu shot. Pain for weeks following injection. Loss of strength and range of motion.

My Condition and OP - Update.
Hello all. Was having a lie-in this morning - The phone rang and it was the urology waiting list people. I was informed my op to see if the BCG treatment had worked or not, is scheduled for the 8th of October. I doubt very much the BCG will have worked - I think my urology/oncology nurse thinks

Combining the Influenza and COVID-19 vaccines.
I have read of some people who got both vaccines at the same time, and their experience was not good. However perhaps a different kind of Influenza vaccine combined with a COVID-19 vaccine might make things easier.? This approach is now being tested. Pfizer and BioNTech Announce Positive Topline

Can shingrix vaccination effect platelet count?
Hi everyone I’ve just been for my 4 month appointment with my haematologist and my platelets have increased from 375 to 460. He wants me to come back in 2 months time and then if platelets not reduced my hydroxycarbemide will be increased. I’m on 9 tablets a week for ET aged 71 and fit. I’m not keen

Covid and flu vaccination ?
Tomorrow I am due for both a covid and flu vaccination. I received a letter from the health authorities and I was offered both as I have the relevant health issues. This is the first time I fall in this category, even when taking pred. and being in the hospital for 5 days with asthma attack (covid) in

New Diagnosis - Very Confused
I had some health checks and an ECG showed LBBB I was sent for an echo in June just to double check things. This came back with left ventricular dysfunction and EF 35%. Ventricular ectopy was 7-8% couldn't believe it when I was told I have HF. Seemingly no symptoms I thought, however I did get palpations
