Yearly endo nonsense
I've given up ranting, this just seems to be yearly confirmation of what we are up against (sadly most don't get as far as Endochrinoloy. My GP surgery recently asked me to confirm my Levo dose? They prescribe it each month so is it compliance? I replied 150mcg Levothyroxine and 10mcg Liothyronine (I've

Wound healing and Steroid Use
I have been on Prednisone for just over a year. I am down to 10mg and cannot titer down without flare. I am waiting for approval for Kevzara. I have noticed that when I get a small cut or skin abrasion (which is more frequent since my skin is thinner with steroid use) It gets very red and takes a long

Metoprolol
I have recently gone from PAF to the AF being semi-permanent. I have been prescribed metoprolol which is helping but every pharmacy I contact, and also my own prescribing surgery are finding it very hard to get hold of. Anyone else have this problem? I am in UK.

Unexplained pain in the mornings:
I recently began tapering from 15mg after my PMR diagnosis down to 10mg over a couple of months, following the usual NHS protocol, but on 10mg I began to get pain in the upper back between the shoulder blades, and in my arms, upper and lower, and especially on the right, and sometimes behind the knees

Negative Posting About the NHS
Hi all. Recently I have seen some very negative posts/responses to people with regards the NHS and it's lack of performance, commitment, etc., to TBI sufferers. It is so bad that like a used car forum where people only post when they have a problem, never to say they have a great car, I'd like to somewhat

Compressions
HelloI am 9 weeks post TKR in right knee and I think I might have a problem with my Compressions. I have lower leg Lymphoedema and my left leg was always worst for swelling. Since my knee surgery, my right leg is swelling more. Obviously, this would be partly due to the surgery but when I wear my compression

post right hemicolectomy functional bowel disorder
my son age 7 during storm Emma passed out and vomited continuously, we had to take him to the nearest accessible hospital with ice chains on the car , they just said it was viral. A scan the next day revealed intersusception so his bowel was blocked , he developed sepsis. He had a right hemicolectomy

Waiting forever for Heart MRI
At my echocardiogram, I was told I needed to go direct to A&E and they they had spoken to cardiology and I was to be admitted. I wasn’t they just sent me home. Had to chase up my emergency cardiology appointment, which was a month from echo. Now I’m awaiting an heart MRI. Apparently 3 month wait

Cognitive skills
I had open heart surgery over four months ago. Straight after the surgery I felt fine and could hold a conversation with people. The week after (once home) I felt I was present in the room but struggled to communicate. I would have the conversation mapped out in my head along with what I wanted to

Good News about Neuro One
I’d like to shear this news from Parkinson’s News Today: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration in December 2023 cleared the device for measuring brain electrical activity and selectively destroying damaged nervous tissue during functional neurosurgery, or surgery to restore neuronal function.

Having a STEMI in mid 40's...the search for underlying causes / answers for premature CHD.
Hi Everyone, My husband had a major STEMI in March 2023 with a full blockage of his circumflex artery. He was 44 years old and playing 5-a-side football in a local sports centre when he collapsed without warning. Thank goodness it happened there of all places however, as the swift actions of his team

Partners of patients how do you cope? I’m falling apart
My husband 62 yo is awaiting quad
bypass
surgery
at the BHI currently. Long story short, scans show he had a massive heart attack at some point and didn’t notice and it’s really damaged his heart. The
bypass
team are reluctant to do
surgery
as it’s risky.

I thought about changing to his clinic, and switch from my old clinic a year ago. After a bad experience their (being mocked by the receptionist for forgetting
