sudden high blood pressure and breathlessness
so my BP (usually 120/75 ish) suddenly shot up to 204/110 and despite various medications it’s currently hovering at 160/95. I was swimming a mile 4 times a week and now I can’t walk up a flight of stairs without getting out of breath. I’ve had a 10second ECG which my dr said is fine and I was

5 weeks - heavy bleeding (potentially sensitive)
Hi All, I’ve been through a whirlwind over the last few days. BFP since 7dp5dt and with tests getting stronger every 48hrs up to 13dp5dt. Then on 14dp5dt I started to see dark brown and watery blood in the morning. By the evening, it was full on heavy, red blood with huge clots and pain. Eventually

Vaccines while taking prednisone
I am in the process of tapering down off prednisone. My doctor told me if I can get below 10mg daily than it’s ok to get my Covid booster and flu vaccine. She said if by November I am still not below 10mg than I should go ahead with vaccines. Is this a common directive while on prednisone? Thank you

Bradycardia
Hello everyone, hope you’re all doing well. I’m in my late 20’s and have recently been told that on a recent 7 day ECG it was picked up that I had Mobitz 2 AV block. This came as quite a surprise to me (and my cardiologist, due to my age presumably!) For this reason and my on-going symptoms it was

Can't seem to get below 4.5mg!
I made it to 5mg Pred nine months ago, having taken nine months from diagnosis when I started on 15mg and very quickly got to 10mg following GP's plan. I found this forum and GP was very happy to let me titrate at my own pace following DSNS. (He even picked up DSNS from me and used it for other patients

Cardioversion for Flutter now
Hi all, I went to Cardiologist today who put me on ECG and said my AF has gone... the Flecainide worked but I did a running session before I took it to see if I could shock it back into Sinus maybe the combo of both worked. However she detected Flutter, which is new to me and possibly caused by the Flecainide

Early pregnancy cramping
I had my BFP this week, but I'm still getting on and off cramping. It's worse in the afternoon/evenings. It's like mild period pain, but it seems to go in for several hours. Someone tell me that this is normal! Worth saying my beta HCG was good and the clinic say it's just the hormones. But I just

Vaccines prior to Blood work
Do you think that my husband's blood work will be affected by the Covid booster and flu shot received four weeks prior to blood draw? I am concerned enough about lab results without them being negatively affected. He has CKD stage 3B. Thank you for your input.

newbie diagnosed with ectopic beats, but also paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
Had slow heart beat for 5 days with slight flutterings. Thought it was my Afib starting again. Had ecg at drs yesterday and was told it was ectopic beats. I’m not taking any medication , was on 2.5mg Bisoprolol as pill in pocket, but advised to stop it. It’s horrible, I have them all day,not sure why

Reaction to 4th covid vaccine (Moderna)
Just to say I had a 4th covid vaccination on Saturday (17 Sept) along with the flu jab, and today have woken up to a lupus flare - the first I have had in a long time. I take hydroxychloroquine and have prednisolone to hand for use during a flare, but have decided not take the steroids in case it interferes

Managed to get both my Covid booster and seasonal flu vaccines today. They even had a large TV screen following the funeral.

views on clear blue digital tests
hey all! So I got impatient AGAIN and tested… it was positive! I’ve heard that clear blue digital is great way to gage hcg level before beta cause it will increase to 3-4 weeks pregnant! I did the test today at 9dpt and it only said 1-2. I’m still delighted it’s positive at all but praying the hcg levels
