An account of a brain cell transplant
This stem cell transplant did not produce a cure but it is an interesting read to understand where the state of medicine is right now regarding a cure or at least a treatment for Parkinson's disease. https://www.statnews.com/2020/05/12/medical-first-parkinsons-brain-cell-transplant-stem-cells/

Sleeping 12 weeks after CABG x 4
For the last four nights I have really struggled to get to sleep and felt unwell during the day. My husband says I do sleep for much of the night but I can't get comfortable when going to bed. I feel itchy all over, my nightwear rides up and I rearrange my pillows. I feel cold and shivery and most distressing

Is Swelling at top of sternum 3 months after CABG x 3 normal?
My fiancé had his CABG x 3 just over 3 months ago and the “lump” at the top of his sternum incision is still as prominent as it was immediately after surgery, he’s also got irritation around this area (slight redness and dry skin.) Does this sound normal as we thought the swelling would go down quicker

Look After Yourself. Personal View
I think what is going on is a Logistics Nightmare , and a Inter Generational Failure It is obvious that what we all assumed to be the computer age is not exactly what it is cracked up to be !! Look how often letters don't come from the NHS when they are supposed to, Admin Error, we are told. When you

.? Endocarditis
9 months ago I had a new aortic valve and a single cabg where the mammary artery was used. Recovery was a bit eventful, back with my cardiologist now, who did a telephone conversation with me about 2 weeks ago. One concern I have, I’m female by the way, the left breast towards the inside I get like toothache

Calquence Headaches and Low Blood Counts?
Hello!! I am writing on behalf of my dad. He was diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma in October 2019, he is 76 years old. He went through 5 months of chemotherapy (R-DHAP) and was deemed to be in remission from a PET scan. He was about to prep for stem cell transplant... however, they found some more

Advice and help please
Hi I was diagnosed 2 years ago with clear cell ovarian cancer and had 6 rounds of carbo taxol after a hysterectomy.I went to UCLH in london who discovered I did not have clear cell in March 2019 but germ cell yolk sac. I then needed more surgery and they found a new lesion that tested positive. Because

Still in hospital and being a wimp....
So after atrial flutter in 2015 (cardioverted in 48hrs), I then had a hybrid atrial fibrillation/flutter last August. To cut a long story short after 5.5 weeks trying to control it at home and in hospital I was cardioverted again following a TOE. In December Papworth decided I should have an ablation

Message For Boris
Hi Boris Just to let you know You will never forget the Names of the Nurses who cared for you. I am almost 5 years post CABG and I can still picture Kerri Ann a young Australian CC Nurse who looked after me when I was rather poorly after the operation. Every time I came round Kerri Ann was there taking

Slight “man boob” after CABG
Hi - I am 68 - not overweight - (12stone - 5’ 8”) so not exactly lean and mean either! 😊 I had a double bypass using mammary gland and lower leg vein 11 months ago. Recovered really well - still a bit numb in left chest and lower leg areas but I have driven to and all over Spain 4 months after the op

Back in hospital...
Had a nasal skin graft on Tuesday. This is to stop more bleeds so I can tolerate ablation. But 30 hours later I'm back in Afib. I think it is triggered by dehydration (eight hours without liquid, I did warn them) Yesterday they said they would do TOE and Cardioversion. Then at 10pm they suddenly put

Looking for advice
Hi. New to this forum. I had a heart attack and CABG x3 last October. I've since completed a cardiac rehabilitation course. Is the Couch to 5k programme suitable for me? Any advice greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

Strange Coincidence??
Hi all, I was diagnosed with seto positive RA may 2018, on 22.5 mg methotrexate pills and 200mg hydroxy. All in all, been pottering along quite well. Hate tablet day, but it's soon over with! I don't suffer too bad, feet are the worst, but compared to when I couldn't walk at diagnosis, pretty good.

So I was cut as a baby and have to deal with this my whole life, I don't really have much sensation in my dick, I'm assuming because of my circumcision, I was wondering if a revision surgery would help the stimulation, make it look better And improve my confidence, after looking at the picture what

Online workouts
Hi All, So as we are all now self isolating and staying home as much as possible it means I can't go out on my CABG post op daily walks. Can anyone recommend any good online workouts (YouTube videos, online sites etc) I could do at home to keep my recovery on track please? Thanks Brian

Stem Cell Transplant
My doctor says that after a 2nd remission, meaning after ibrutinib and venetoclax have failed that a stem cell transplant is the next option. I have been on IB for 14 months and it has been amazing but I am terrified about doing a stem cell transplant. Can someone share their experiences if you have
