Exercise induced AF - a few months on
Afternoon all, Thought I'd share my experiences of navigating my way through PAF so far. My history is in a previous post - 4 experiences of high HR / AF during big efforts over the last 12 months, but seemed to be getting more frequent. No issues reverting to NSR. Cardiologist driven testing - I've

Help for extreme pain in thighs and arms
I took my last prednisone tablet mid May (GCA diagnosed late April 2019); cortisol test in June was 203 (reference range in Canada is 135-537); 380 in September so my adrenal glands are well on their way to recovery. I have been on Actemra injections since October 2019, now every three weeks (until January

timing of medications
hiya - am getting confused about when to take all my meds and supplements throughout the day other then to leave 1hr after taking thyroxine and not having calcium tab within 4hrs of thyroxine. Does it matter when I have the rest or are there optimal times to take these meds/supplements. I wondered

Is Vitamin C ok to take with my other meds?
Hi I would like to start on collagen for my bones and my ageing skin. But most seem to contain Vitamin C. I have it in my head that I shouldn't take vitamin C for some reason but I don't know why. I currently take: ERFA Levo Lenzetto and micronised progesterone (HRT) Calcium Iron B Vits Fish

All regular use sublingual opioid medications etc how to protect your teeth.
REGULAR use of sublingual medications, from opioids to Valium etc I break mine into tiny pin head size pieces with a pill cutter. I know 200 mcg Temgesic or 2 mg of Buprenorphine looks very small, however I have followed this process for over 3 years now. - Reasons - Absorption in seconds - Better

Need information on overactive bladder and magnesium deficiency
Has has anyone had any luck with a relatively safe medication for an overactive bladder as well as a magnesium deficiency. Most meds for overactive bladder say they're not suitable for those with CKD. For the magnesium, I'm using the glyconate version an I'm having trouble tolerating even a half

Prednisone + Zytiga + Lupron -- Loss of Height?
After a month of VMAT radiation I started on Prednisone 5 mg, Zytiga 1000 mg, and Lupron about 2 months ago. My height at the end of radiation was 73". At my first checkup a month from that my height was down to about 70.5". After a lot of reading and thinking about 2 weeks ago I added Vitamin K2

magnesium and pregabalin
I've read in several posts that magnesium citrate is good for RLS/PLMD and am going to try it. However I am taking Pregabalin every night so not sure if I can take magnesium at the same time. Does anyone have any advice please.

When to take my folic acid?
Hi everyone - just looking for advice on when to take my folic acid tablet. After weeks of back and forth with the doctors - who said my medichecks blood results did not show a need for a supplement, they insisted on doing a blood test themselves: this is the result - 2.8 ug/L [2.0 -18.7] with notes

Found this in Waitrose (Bit pricey!) Lovely creamy Oat Kefir. Dairy, soya and gluten free... Edit ** Found a recipe they use milk grains**
£3!! and rather annoyingly really nice... heck I'm worth it! I only went in for a sneaky sushi treat 😏 Edit... actually cheaper in Waitrose as they sell the 500g where as the other only sell 250g £1.85 Oat Base (Water, Gluten-Free Oats (11%), Sunflower Oil, Salt), Coconut Cream, Stabilisers (Tapioca

cryoablation
Well the 18th of this month will be a year since the ablation and the past month has not been kind. My heart is fluttering more and more again and it's not pleasant. I took some potassium which helps a little along with my magnesium and my prescription meds. The past month I have been working more and
