I am now able to tolerate antibiotics again after my nerves healed
Hello! I just want to give this update about my situation. I hope people on here find this because my situation was a nightmare and I think this can help people who are confused and not sure what to do or if they'll ever be able to tolerate antibiotics again (TL;DR: you will be able to if you can heal

My turn to go to A&E
Well what a day i had yesterday, at about 4am i woke up in a right state as couldn't breathe. It took quite a while for me t get back to sleep. When i woke up i didn't feel well at all. It was as much as i wanted to do just to get up and go to the loo before coming downstairs to get myself a cup of tea

Post-Covid lung issues - what to expect?
Hi all, I had Covid in mid November and have been sick ever since, particularly (and perhaps only) breathlessness and fatigue. I was first diagnosed with asthma, but the meds only seemed to stave off a worse episode of breathlessness. So I went back to the docs and insisted on being seen, as I was

Afib caused by low heart rate? Ectopics when exercising.
Good morning all,I've had some rather interesting observations over the last few weeks that I would like to share. As background, I had an ablation in July which helped me reduce my Flecainide dose from 2x100 to 2x50mg per day and reduced my Afib episodes to about once per week. My resting heart rate

Cough lozenges
I’ve got a tickly cough and want to suck a lozenge in the hope it will sooth it. I’ve got some Wilko lozenges that are Amylmetacresol. Does anyone know if they are ok to use with Warfarin and Bisoprolol - and of course Afib ! I can’t find this ingredient listed in drug interaction websites so I’m guessing

Cardiovascular issues
Anybody out there with extra-cranial GCA / LVV, have any cardiovascular issues? I was having some shortness of breath, sleepiness & lightheadedness. I'm in the middle of testing for that, but a CAT scan showed I have a dilated aortic root and pericardial effusion. Those explained my symptoms, but neither

First ever phlebitis diagnosis...a few questions
6 days ago, I had a tenderness to the side of my right calf. This has got better, but I have a different red patch, which is very tender, and you can see a line going round from the patch (which is just above my inner ankle) to the top of my foot. It's very painful to walk. So I got an urgent appt

Taking Rivaroxaban to prevent DVT.
I'm on Rivarixaban 10 mg. and Pitavastatin 2 mg. I feel very ok with Rivaroxaban. I don't to check the blood. I had Acute Pulmonary Embolism 4 years ago, and have to have this NOACs lifetime after D-dimer was very high again 2 years ago. Rivaroxaban doesn't cause side effects.

Decision making
I am having a hard time justifying doing anything about my Afib since I feel really good most of the time. Even in Afib I'm pretty good except for the worrying and checking of my heart rate every little bit. I have recently backed out of an RF ablation and a Cryo ablation for fear of a poor outcome

I was diagnosed with Paroxysmal after a year of episodes getting longer and longer . I had a cardio version Sept then a very mild Afib that was controlled with Metoprolol in November. I am overdue now according to my tracking since last Nov (every 4-10 weeks) and I finally got my date for ablation

Peginterferon and nightmares
Just wondering if anyone has experienced nightmares whilst take peginterferon alpha 2a. I have noticed some sleep disturbance and last week, my 8th injection, I was asked to increase dose to 90. My platelets had dropped since starting on 45 from 864 to 706 but still high. After my 2nd 90 dose I am experiencing

Coming off Amiodarone
After developing Afib (thanks to Covid) I was put on amiodarone, bisoprolol and edoxaban. A terrible two to three weeks followed without a wink of sleep getting the amiodarone into my system. I had a cardioversion a few months later (delayed thanks to doctors and nurses strikes). That worked and I felt

Had appointment with cardiologist- update
We had appointment today with cardiologist which we booked privately. In my previous post I said I’d update on how it went. The cardiologist has decided that he will put a heart rate monitor on mum for a week, and see what’s going on. I explained the current anxiety symptoms were so frequent now, like

New to all this!
Hi. I am new to this and feel overwhelmed by it all. I've just been in A&E and have now added yet another condition to the already long list I have. Due to autoimmune hypothyroidism I have had lots of problems with my health and have struggled with finding the right solutions. Now on more Bisoporol

Post Cardioversion
In my previous post I explained that my 3rd carioversion did not work even after one hour I was back into afib. However something strange is happening or at least it seems strange to me but may be normal. Five days after my cardio I got up around 2:30-3:00 am to use the loo. I could feel my heart in

do I need my inhaler ?
hi all, I’m new to this forum and new to my illness which I haven’t really been informed of in much detail. I had a collapsed lung in September last year and they did a cat scan 3 weeks later. The results letter that they sent my doctor was also sent to me. I’ve gathered that I have emphysema and bronchial

One litre of fluids
After having pneumonia with fluid on the lung I have now developed heart failure.My recent x-ray was showing I still have fluid on my lung. I don't have any shortness of breath at the moment. I was surprised to hear this. Apparently it's worse than it was. A consultant from the hospital rang me to ask
