Bisoprolol alternative to avoid cold extremities
Afternoon all, Despite 2 ablations my AFib episodes returned a year ago. Bisoprolol and flecainide seem to control it well, but I really struggled this winter with cold extremities. Despite plenty of layers, woollen socks, thick long skiing gloves I still have very cold fingers and toes. I tried

Being off eliquis for surgery

Actor Bruce Willis has received a further diagnosis of FTD - frontotemporal dementia
FTD - frontotemporal dementia is an umbrella term to include neurological diseases like PSP and CBD. I came up with a revised set of parody lyrics of the Beatle's Let It Be to include FTD, PSP & CBD. https://youtu.be/bRN-JPI7mJI Tim

C25K - Target Pace?
After a false start a couple of years ago I have recently completed a c25k program. I was prompted to try it and get fit after a 'minor' heart attack in 2020 when I was 61, but I felt very vulnerable and frankly was scared of trying it. Jump forward a couple of years to 2023 and after a period of

I was just told I am 3a ckd and looking for guidance as the internet research has scared me
First I am not sure what I’m doing and very freaked out. I’m 49 years old and my primary care doctor told me there really isn’t much to do but sent me to a kidney specialist who told me I am stage 3a with a egfr of 56 today. Told me to drink lots of water, watch what I eat, get an ultrasound and come

I have been an intermediate uveitis patient ( vasculitis of the eye) for about 18 months now. Have had several steroid implants in the eye and has been on methotexrate injections for 6 months now. But the oedema due to vasculitis is coming back repeatedly. So seems like I have 2 options now in terms

Does anyone with CKD have any experience with Circle of Care phone calls? They say they are part of my drs medical group, but they arent.
My husband thinks it's a scam. They said my dr signed me up, my drs ofc say they never heard of them. I told them to quit calling me. They said they are a medicare program and the only way I can get out of it is to quit Medicare. Say what, that sounds like communism.

New here - matazapine not working
Hi all, new to the forum hoping to get some advice. Been struggling with sleep for the past 5 months literally came out of nowhere, I've not slept right through for months. I saw my g.p who prescribed low dose zopiclone which didn't work. I've also tried cbd oil, nytol, and other over the counter meds
