Return to big brother house
Hola, having just spent a month and a half in Spain I have now returned to Blighty and unfortunately I've had to bring my PMRGCA with me. ( we've become quite attached, its very needy) Ok so an update, still on 40mg of preds, blood thinners and beta blockers and statins, so nothing has changed there

PMR & ARRYHMIAS
Hi, I have recently been diagnosed with PMR in April 2022 and started off on 15mg Prednisone. I also have SVT which is a heart arrhythmia for which I take beta blockers statins and aspirin. Just lately I have been getting palpitations more often - 5 lots yesterday alone. Just wondering if anyone else

Heart attacks associated with amitriptyline?
I had a heart attack and stent fitted December last year. On the usual meds, i. e. Aspirin, clopidogrel, statins, beta blockers, BP tablets. I thought I had trigeminal neuralgia for years on and off until I saw a neurologist last week but he said he suspects my condition is hemicrania continua, very

Sore Tongue
I've had a sore tongue for 3 years since being diagnosed with pmr. My dentist just said its typical with autoimmune illness. I looked up Thrush but I didn't have white patches. My tongue always feels like I burnt the tip of it. Toothpaste irritates it. My n ew GP gave me oral dose of Nystatin for 2

Chloresterol drug, clinical trial.
I have been contacted by my GP asking if I would like to participate in a trial of a drug to lower chloresterol. My history is that I had high chloresterol 25 years ago which resulted in blocked arteries and necessitated a heart bypass surgery. I also had a mild heart attack 6 years ago but no reason

Is an MOT required after being discharged
Newbie here.. I had an attack in 2019. Since then I've had my medication prescribed and monitored for first couple of weeks. I have not been back to doctors since. Should I not be having some sort of MOT to maybe adjust medication if required.. Read some horror stories about the high dose of statins

asprin
jusr read this , which might be good for some ,aspirin, the humblest of medicines, surely merits that accolade after last week's research reported in The Lancet showing that regular small doses reduce the risk of many cancers, some by up to 54%. (We already knew that aspirin helps prevent heart attacks

Calcium scoring CT scan .. family related history
Hi all, New to the forum. I’m sure everyone here would rather not be, but from what I’ve read so far, it’s a great resource of reassurance, understanding and support, from the collective and varied experiences that everyone has had. So this is my story so far. I’m an above average fitness, healthy 54

poisoned by statins
I have now come to the conclusion that instead of getting the correct treatment for my heart problem I have been given a higher dosage of statins that is causing me more harm. I believe that my diagnosis should be treated with a stent or a bypass. I have three siblings , two have had heart attacks and

Statins.
GP wants to start me on Rosuvastatin as my cholesterol level has risen (7.7) since starting my treatment on Decepeptyl and Xtandi. Was wondering if starting a statin would reduce the effects of my treatment on the prostate cancer itself. Many thanks in advance
