Pride comes before a fall! Anticoagulant thoughts.
Good evening everyone, Well there I was, floating on my little cloud of self-satisfaction, thinking I’d kicked the AF monster good and proper once I got my sleep apnoea under control. My nightly AF episodes became a thing of the past - bliss! You all know what’s coming next though, don’t you. That

oh what fun!
my husband insists nosebleeds are the body releasing pressure. I get them since I was in my 30’s, and because if the anticoagulants, bleed quite profusely for a little while. This morning I thought I would check my bp at the same time, to prove him wrong. haha - was 215/124 😱😱😱😱 within the space

CBD for SCA
I have been testing half a year now with
CBD
-oil. Normally I've been using 20-25% but now I bought Cibdol's 40%, no exprience yet. Get's a bit costly... For my SCA7/ 43 rep the
CBD
works really well. After 3-4 days after the 1ml dose I don't need my sticks at all.

Prescribed Amlodipine
I have recently been prescribed Amlodipine for high blood pressure , I was told to take it for a month & then make another appointment to see the doctor. I haven’t started taking it yet, I am to be honest, afraid, after reading the leaflet side effects section, example, 1 in 10 have reported palpitations

Acceptance
I know this written from the point of view of someone who has been through the experience and survived it as unscathed as I could realistically hope and so have a great deal of sympathy for those going through the very early stages but I do wonder if my recovery may have been helped by a strange set

Xatral, an alpha blocker does it elevate heart rate?
am in permanent Af and take 190 mg Dilzem per day. Heart rate is controlled and hovers around sixties. My urologist prescribed Xartal an alpha blocker to manage my bladder muscle weakness which is causing urinary difficulties. Took 10 mg/ day for 10 days and saw improvement of urine flow and stream.

Do natural supplements work to reduce high cholesterol?
While strictly not a PMR issue I know there are a few whose cholesterol has risen markedly since being diagnosed. I am one of them. I have always had high-ish cholesterol but my last fasting blood test showed everything else perfectly normal but my cholesterol was up. I haven't seen the results

Cardioversion
Hi everyone, I have gone from paroxysmal AF ( once a month) to permanent AF since the beginning of December. My EP has referred me for cardioversion which is on Feb 28th. My heart rate is constantly around 70 - 80 even when resting, with an irregular rhythm. I take Apixaban, Flecainade and Verapramil

Cardioversion
I recently had a Cardioversion for persistent AF. This worked immediately but very quickly reverted. I have never been aware of the AF, I only get the notification from my BPM. My BP is reasonable (medicated) and my heart rate is always about 66. My main problem is exhaustion and breathlessness. The

Ablation outcome
So I haven't been on for a while or updated on the outcome of my ablation that I had at the end of August. I stayed in and out of NSR for about 2 weeks before settling in to a symptomless permanent AFib. The only problem was I felt breathless on climbing hills or running. A 24 hour ECG showed my average

tapering off azathioprine
Hi all, Just had a consultation with my rheumatologist today and he has changed his outline for me going forward that you may find interesting I was diagnosed with GPA in 2017 and was quite severe at time of diagnosis. Initially had cyclophosphamide infusions and have been maintained on azathioprine

Heartrate
I have just started wearing a smart watch and cannot stop checking my heartrate. I am on 1.25mg of Bisoprolol which I have been taking for over a year. This was for an episode of AF. My resting heartrate is around 55. Sometimes at night whilst asleep it is as low as 45. Is this acceptable? I feel OK

CBD and Palmitoylethanolamide might not go together (or maybe they do)
It is not great evidence, but it is enough for me to take a pass on the
CBD
for awhile.
