Light headed.
Twice this week I have felt slightly dizzy and lightheaded. My sodium levels are usually low. I'm waiting to go back for another test. I wonder if this could be causing my symptoms. I feel drained too. Usually, I am fine. It makes me really worried thinking I might have a stroke or heart attack

Settling in on HHD, the good, bad and ugly….
I am mentor and have been for years for newly diagnosed
CKD
patients. But I knew I needed support of someone who is walking my walk. My mentor is the best. She has been on home hemo for 26 years. She gives me hope, lets me vent, gives me tricks to work with the machines.

Newly diagnosed and don't know what to do.
My A Fib began with a mild, pulsating feeling in my throat and it promoted me to take a manual pulse reading. It was then that I noticed my heart skipped every 6th beat or so, then it stopped in less than a minute. My bpm was not more the 70.Since then, I have had an ECG and I was stunned when they said

cbd interaction with levothyroxine
this is very worrying. I’m sure I’m suffering from the interaction between cbd patches and levothyroxine that I was totally unaware of. Knowing that both levothyroxine and CBD oil serve the same purpose, which is treating hypothyroidism, you may wonder if it’s appropriate to use both forms of medication

Rapid heart rate
Hi Last night all of a sudden my pulse went up to around 100 beats and was feeling my wrist was like 5 fast beats then would stop for a while then start going fast again. I felt a little sweaty as well. I get the occasional PVA PVC but never to fast heart rate. After a while like 15 mins or so it

AF at night
hi, a brief history, I have Paroxysymal Attial fibrillation which started 2 and a half years ago. I had an ablation in December and since then I have had two episodes waking me up in the middle of the night which have lasted 40 and 20 minutes respectively and gone back into sinus rhythm without intervention

Indapamide with levothyroxine?
I have been prescribed Indapamide for high blood pressure. I also have Ramipril which I take in the evening. The Indapamide pack says to take in the morning. Can I take it with my thyroxine? I couldn’t see any contraindications for it but is it going to impede the thyroxine? ShouldI take it at night
