3rd Aortic valve replacement
Thankyou so much to all of you that have replied to my first post. I have been poorly for a while, I thought I had a chest infection, as my lungs are pretty rubbish as well as my heart. I had an Echo done a while back and the report from it came through over the weekend. If anyone can help me translate

Methotrexate
Just had my appointment with the Rheumatologist, he was concerned that I am coming up to 3 years on Steroids (Dec) and wants me to take Methotrexate instead and wean off the steroids. Not sure whether I feel good or bad about it as I don't know anything about it. I have come away with a booklet and

yesterday, after my tough weekend with breathlessness, my partner went home and said he would see me this weekend. He could only just have arrived home when I almost passed out cleaning my car, fell against the side, went inside as was heaving for breath and was then was very sick. This is a crisis

Minoca and still have chest pains
Newbie here. I had a MINOCO at the end of July, I had been getting chests pains for months. Nothing showed up except for troponin raised levels. My blood pressure is always low, I am not overweight, I don't smoke or drink, so I'm not on any medication, except for a 10mg statin, which I have just stopped

Still breathless
Last February I finished my second line of chemo and soon after developed debilitating breathlessness. It is really affecting my life, but it seems there is nothing I can do about it. My haemoglobin is 99 which is not excessively low, I have had a chest X ray, ECG, CT of thorax, abdomen and pelvis and

Hello, I’m new here
About 7-8 years ago I was diagnosed with tachycardia and prescribed Verapamil. I have since had no follow-ups, apart from one visit to my GP about three years ago when I felt the tachycardia was getting worse, and was told to take one extra tablet a day. Up until 28.08.21 I continued taking this dosage

How long from MDT to biologic?
Hello! My team have recommended starting Adalimumab. My screening bloods and Chest X-ray have been done and are ok. The referral has been submitted to the biologic MDT…. How long does it take in people‘s experience for things to move forwards now 🤞🏻? I shouldn’t really complain as everyone has been

Pain by left ribs
I have had worsening pain and swelling by my left ribs since having pericarditis and an effusion . I saw my gp and she said it could just be that my chest is more prominent that side . It’s so bad now that I have started using voltarol gel along with strong pain relief to try to sleep, if I lean forward

Hello - I’m new and have questions.
Hi Everyone, I’m new here and very grateful for this group and information. I joined because after doing some research - I suspect I may possibly have PBC - even though my gastroenterologist suspects AIH (autoimmune hepatitis) instead. I would greatly appreciate your insights. I am a 65 year old female

Broken NHS!

This time I had to stop as I was breathless and was shaking/shivering, HR was 152 which is pretty normal as near the

Two Questions. Interferon and JAK %
Had by 3 monthly consultation yesterday, bloods all ok, but my cough is still there.. The consultants are unaware of any possible link to interferon and have referred me back to my GP, the GP has ordered a chest X ray, clear, changed my BP pills, so he has very little else to go on... The consultants

Unsure what it is as not a chest infection or covid-19.
I ended up at A&E all last night with my asthma. The ambulance had to give me a nebuliser because I had a bilateral wheeze on both sides.The hospital did bloods and chest x ray and said that my chest is clear, no sign of infection and that it is musco-skeletal but yet I was still breathless. Now I'm

Trying to get a diagnosis
Hi Everyone, In 2014 after the birth of my son and 9 months of complaining to my doctor, I was finally diagnosed with Hypothyroidism. This was treated to bring my levels back to “normal”, but I never felt like I recovered. Over the course of the last 8 years I have complained and complained about general

Really Struggling with Fostair
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with asthma last spring after contracting Covid. It started relatively mild, I was prescribed a Ventolin blue reliever and a brown, steroid inhaler (Soprobec) which I took every day with a spacer. My symptoms seemed very manageable and I only had a minor flare up when I had

prednisolone and blood clots in lung

Out of the blue, diagnosed with Atrial fibrillation
How can I go from an investigation of shortness of breath, a clear chest X-ray, a normal ECG and blood test, 2 weeks later a stint in resus, an overnight stay, to now being diagnosed with Atrial fibrillation, how does that happen? Was very fit, exercised regularly, but have a history of hypotension.

Breathless!
I completed six sessions of Carbo/Caelyx in February, and almost immediately noticed breathlessness. Up until then, I had no issues at all, and could walk for long distances and do my housework and gardening. This condition came on so quickly, and is having a huge impact on my life. I make the bed, then
