angiogram
Has anyone had to stop their apixaban for an angiogram. I understand because of bleeding, but when I went to have my pre op assessment the nurse didn’t know. She "thought" I had to stop the apixaban for 2 days prior and take aspirin 75 instead. I have tried to get on to the hospital, but always answerphone

Sciatica with endometriosis - 2 years of pain
After a long period of pelvic pain with little to no explanation, I have recently been diagnosed with endometriosis. During the last 2 years, I have been suffering daily with excruciating & irritating sciatic pain for which I couldn’t find an answer to. Mechanically my lower back is fine and is never

new diagnosis advice on blood thinners please
I had my diagnosis only 4 days ago after an echocardiogram. I was prescribed Apixaban 5mg twice a day which are making me feel incredibly ill so I haven’t taken today’s dose. I intend to ring my surgery Monday morning to ask if there’s another medication blood thinner I could take instead with less

Color hair while it is thinning
Hi Ladies and Gents. Hair has been thinning on Ibrance and Letrozole and I have tried to preserve it a bit by not doing my regular highlights. It just looks so drab and I feel like a need a lift and highlights might do it. Has anyone noticed whether your hair thins more with coloring/highlights?

Error with meds
Hi. I forgot to take my meds yesterday morning. Didn't realise until I felt strange and was about to take my evening meds at 10.30pm. So I took morning meds. I now need to take meds again in order to bring back to morning dose over two days. I am fine taking flecainide and blood thinner since I take

mestatic breast cancer is very frustrating
onc told me to stop Ibrance because white cells to low. Go for blood work next week. I also have to decide whether to have a drain tube put in right lung.

Ibrance and Letrozole not working
I have just finished my 3rd round. My CA 15-3 went up 8.1 points to 38.1 and my CEA went up 4.2 to 14.9. I just had a CT that they said was fine except for more lung nodules but an X-ray for hip pain showed growth. What do I do now?

Palpitations at night
I had a third ablation nearly three weeks ago and am in sinus rhythm, but I'm having trouble sleeping because of an uncomfortable thumping heart when I go to bed, that keeps me awake for a while, though it's OK in the mornings. After the ablation my consultant told me to halve my Bisoprolol dose,

Are Anticoagulants necessary?
I was diagnosed with PAF over two years ago following two episodes of fast AF which lasted for less than six hours. I was given IV Metoprolol in A&E and discharged on Bisoprolol 1.25mg daily. I have been well and active since but my cardiologist is keen for me to take anticoagulants as my CHADsVASc

Verzenio treatment
My question is how many of you have been on Verzenio for years? And is it possible to NOT have diarrhea on it? My doctor is replacing Ibrance with Verzenio and I am quite apprehensive about it. My doc is starting me on the lowest strength Verzenio. I was on the lowest strength Ibrance too. I

Bone scan total body
hi ladies, I have a question I have MBC to my neck and I am on Ibrance 100, faslodex and xgeva for about four years. The treatment is working so far! My previous ONC used to order MRI and CT scans two times a year. My new ONC now ordered Bone scan total body. Even if I don’t feel pain and I don’t

when to reduce apixaban dosage?
I am being monitored for kidney deterioration on a regular basis because of taking 5mg x 2 daily Apixaban. My latest blood test showed they are deteriorating slowly and am now in stage 2. I am nearly 80, and under 7stone 9. I feel as if I am between a rock and a hard place. I really really don’t

MBC Medicare Drug Plan
Does anyone have advice on Medicare Part D drug plans in the US? I am switching from Ibrance to Piqray in November and all 24 drug plans for my area show an out of pocket cost for me at $60K/ year! I cannot afford $5000/ month for just one drug so I am in the process of applying for manufacturer's assistance

Update on shoulder surgery
A few weeks ago when I posted that I was having a difficult time with my PMR journey many of you replied with positive thoughts and support. That helped me so much. I mentioned at the time that I was awaiting shoulder surgery and some of you asked me to let you know how I got on. I had the surgery

Something Seems Off With my Smartwatch Heart rate Readings
I was given an IPhone Smart Watch for Christmas, but just started using it, the past couple of months. My question is with the accuracy of the heart rate readings. I usually wait at least 1 & 1/2 hours, after taking my Cartia, before I start a brisk 35-60 min. walk. Sometimes, my heart rate will register
