night cramps
Hi everyone, I’m new on this forum. I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis 3 years ago, in the family genes!, I’m currently on Methotrexate (25mg). Seem to be ok until about 2 weeks ago when I started to experience severe night cramps in my legs and feet. My consultant tells me it wasn’t a symptom

2nd Ablation woes
Hi I had a second ablation 2 weeks ago today. Everything went well and I felt happy and optimistic. Then a few days ago I went back into Af with an erractic heartbeat that is still continuing. Spoke to Arrythmia nurse and she advised this is quite common and I might need a cardioversion in 6 weeks after

Fatty liver in biopsy but not scans
Hiya, I’m just curious if anyone has had a similar experience where their liver biopsy results shows signs of fatty liver but ultrasounds/CT show an enlarged liver but no fatty liver signs. I’m wondering if this means it’s extremely early stages maybe?

Flecainide before Cardioversion
My EP's plan was to have me start on Flecainide and then have Cardioversion in hopes that my heart would keep rhythm. EP changed his mind because my INR was below threshold and told me to not take it until AFTER the CV in case the med converted my heart. I was instructed to have an ECG done 2 days

Excruciating jaw pain
Over the past week, pain in my jaw has been getting worse. It’s now excruciating at times. It’s not there all the time but does often coincide with eating. Had a thorough dental examination and no sign of infection or necrosis (from Zometa). I’m taking cocodamol but it’s not enough. Any similar experiences

Vasculitis (especially CNS/cerebral) and incontinence
I was helping another cerebral/CNS vasculitis patient tonight about incontinence. Which can be a common symptom of brain vasculitis, whether a primary CNS/cerebral vasculitis, or secondary brain involvement from a systemic vasculitis like GPA. But vasculitis medics frequently under recognise incontinence

Thankyou
Thankyou to everyone for all the replies to my previous post. I have felt anxious because of being newly diagnosed and new to the meds so the replies have helped me greatly. I've still got an echo to come and 48hr ecg and I have the date for the ecg now. Thankyou once again.

Adenomyosis, Endometriosis and Autoimmune diseases
Hi ladies, this question is just out of curiosity because I see several posts about a lot of us having a combination of Endometriosis/ Adenomyosis and autoimmune disease.

iwatch setting - AF history or AF alert?
Prior to my ablation last October I had persistent Afib. Since then I have been in NSR. I have kept my iwatch monitor set to record “AF history” and it has consistently shown AF load to be 2% or under on the weekly notifications. Should I stay on this setting or should I now set it to show alerts the

PSA Rising
Had surgery in November 2021. Gleason 4+3...Post surgery PSA was 0.01. Positive margin (1 millimetre). PSA has risen from 0.1 to 0.06 in 24 months. Doctor says I should do nothing. Until it hits 0.2. Next test is June 2024. Any advice will be appreciated.

Advice Greatly Appreciated
Good Day, I would sooooo appreciate a response/advice/opinions.... I was recently advised by my GP (family doctor) that I have cirrhosis. This is of course terrifying...I apparently had sever fatty liver in July 2021 but I was sadly not informed of this. I would have turned it around immediately.

Weird leg pain
Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this weird symptom! For almost 10 years now I have had pain in my outer calf about two inches up from my ankle on both sides. It comes on with the slightest exertion but is not there all the time. The achy pain builds and builds until I feel like

Low Dose Aspirin for Heart Disease
My cardiologist wants me to take a daily low dose aspirin, but I am hesitant as I have a history of proteinuria. I know the studies are inconclusive as to whether or not it helps (and even my cardiologist admits that), but I have a bad valve and my risk is moderately high for sudden death/stroke. I'm

Diagnosed in 2010 with advanced PC. Prostatectomy in 2011 followed by the "all clear". PSA refused to disappear and so RT followed. PSA still present and PC nodules found in my lung in 2021. I then had a 6 session course of chemotherapy and have been on Abiaterone and Demoxosone drugs ever since.Nodules
