Oromorph
Hi all. Has anyone had experience of using Oromorph? Doctors have prescribed this for my mum who has CBD because she has started constantly scratching/rubbing her right leg with her left leg and is crying in pain with it. The oromorph seems to be better than the Gabapentin but it’s making her very,

Working out after AFIB
I saw my EP for a 90 day check up post ablation a few weeks ago. One of my questions was when can I resume more intense cardio workouts? I'm back to weight training, yoga, walking and rowing (on machine), but am nervous about getting my heart rate too high. My history: 3 (that I knew of) episodes

VAF Linked With Coronary Artery Calcification in MF

High diastolic blood p Niraparib
Hi, Blood pressure going up again on Niraparib, but it does just seem to be the bottom number, the diastolic. Has anybody got any success stories of sorting this bit with meds? Had bad reaction to calcium channel blocker. Currently taking Candesartan, though wanting to increase dose but not been on

Too much to take in!
A lot going on with no answers. Firstly having been diagnosed with AF in May, I had my fourth episode whilst in France a couple of weeks ago. Previous to that I was asked whether I would take part in the DOCCLA system which is an extension of a hospital ward apparently where they monitor you at home

Bad test news - questions to ask doctor
I knew my husband had AF following an EKG prior to surgery in 2012. He was a college athlete and only health issues have been hip and knee replacements. They tried to shock him out of AF but it was unsuccessful. He was put on Xarelto 20 mg. He has always been asymptomatic and I was naive since he

Need K Monitoring App
CKD
3B. Doc says no more that 2000mg Potassium per day. Have installed
EIGHT
!! K monitoring apps from Apple Store, and have spent hours getting familiar with them. ALL 8 apps (unless I have missed something) are lacking in one or more fundamental features.

BP meds
Although I can keep my BP under control I experience really painful joints which I attribute to
CKD
not filtering the toxins from my body............ as a result the toxins get's into my joints and causes inflammation of the cartilage and surrounding tendons.

Slow and irregular heart rate with T3
I have taken NHS prescribed T3 only since 2012, three doses: 20 mcg 7am 10 mcg 3pm , 20 mcg 10 pm. 65 bpm is my normal resting rate. In the past I have had an occasional fall in bpm to mid 50's but found upping T3 dose for few days and changing to new packet (not short date) and my heart rate returned

Newly diagnosed AFib 40 year old
Hello everyone, last week I was diagnosed with persistent afib with lbbb and I'm terrified. I've been discharged with a bag of meds (bisoprolol, flecanide and rivaroxaban) and on the list for an ablation. I haven't been given much info and investigated everything myself. I just feel utterly depressed

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

Annual transplant program appointment
Gratefully, this one had actually read my chart before coming in the room and knew and believed my
CKD
was from ileostomy dehydration. It was the first time I didn't have to play, "educate the doctor." I usually have to explain the difference between an ileostomy and a colostomy and more.
