Landmark study shows simple salt swap could prevent millions of deaths each year
Replacing table salt with a reduced-sodium, added-potassium ‘salt substitute’ significantly reduces rates of stroke, heart attack and death, according to the results of one of the largest dietary intervention studies ever conducted. Presented at a ‘hotline session’ at the European Society of Cardiology

Neuropathy treatments
Unfortunately as we all know, good treatment for neuropathy is generally poor. I've tried as most people have everything. The only way I control my feet neuropathy is plenty of walking icing and messaging with deep heat before bed. The only medication I take is ibuprofen - one table 400mg give me 50%

Echo findings
Whilst in hospital with fast AF I was given an echocardiogram. This was my first echo in AF. I have an echo every 6 months and the last one was normal except for dilated LA which they said was down to my weight. On top of dilated LA, this echo showed mild tricuspid regurgitation and borderline LSVF

Fast heartrate not a symptom of being undermedicated.
Just spoke to doctor and he says if your undermedicated, it will cause bradycardia NOT tachycardia and having read replies to my previous posts, this appears to be untrue. I'm just so frustrated and angry having to deal with doctors who don't know what they're talking about, God help us all!!!

After my transplant I had

Expectant parents with a CHD baby - help
Me and my wife are expecting our first child and at the 20 week scan we discovered that she has a hypoplastic aortic arch with associated VSD and as such will require open heart surgery soon after birth. I'm looking to speak with other parents who've dealt with a similar diagnosis to see what we can
