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.

Dr Mark Norman EP
Have been looking at EPs in my area as I believe that I’ll need an ablation eventually. I’m on flecainide and bisoprolol currently and whilst so far I’ve only had one AF event in the last 12 months (compared to every two or three months pre medication) I know that it may not last. The number of palpitations

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

A question.
I went for an ECG today which is basically a yearly check re taking Dronedarone. Unfortunately, I was asked to lie down in a totally flat position which leaves me feeling nauseous. I mentioned this to my wife who quite automatically said "Why don't they take your ECG when you are upright"? Which when

Coming off meds - any advice?
Hoping you are all having a good day. I’ve just had the news that my three month post ablation ambulatory ECG has given good results - ‘very reassuring’ and ‘no sign of AF’. So far, so good. I was told that I can stop Flecainide today and Bisoprolol after a further two months. I’d welcome your comments

Angioplasty tomorrow...in urgent need of advice asap pls
Hi all angioplasty booked for tomorrow but not sure if I should go ahead with it or just cancel. Reason for procedure: Doc wants to investigate extent of artery blockage in order to prescribe flecanide medication for afib. If blockage is severe he will fit a stent during the procedure. Got quite a shock

Blood pressure
I saw a poster at the GPs about blood pressure, basically it said keep your blood pressure down and you won’t have a stroke or blood clots. I’m wondering if I can keep my low blood pressure, in spite of my platelets being somewhat raised, would that mean I wouldn’t have a stroke? I’ve not known the

Food Delivery Services
My mom was recently diagnosed with Stage 4
CKD
. We are changing her diet to ensure she eats properly to help her kidneys function. She lives alone and doesn't really like cooking for herself. I would like to find a Food delivery service that specializes in the Renal diet.

PMR without steroids?
Hubby (55) was just diagnosed with PMR that we suspect he's had for about two years. He'd like to try and work through it without taking prednisone since every post we read is about people trying to get off of it. Do you think it's possible to manage the pain with other means and methods long enough

Changing to Adizem
UPDATE for all you lovely people out there who were kind enough to send support at a tough time. Firstly, just to let you know I’m recovering very well from the spine surgery, all healing nicely and to plan. I spoke to the cardiologist this morning. After using Flec twice a day, plus as PiP on Saturday

Dad - CBD
So the last few days my dad has been poorly. His breathing hasn't been very good and he has been making awful noises. He is now struggling to swallow so sits with food in his mouth (he is on a puree diet) and is quite dribbly. When my mum does get him to eat it is usually no more than a couple of teaspoons

Physio and CBD
hi. My mum (81) has CBD, diagnosed December 2019 but had symptoms for about 3/4 years before. Due to lockdown and other circumstances, she’s just started to see a neuro physio. Her right arm is the ‘alien limb’ and mum hasn’t been able to do anything with it really but the physio wanted her to try and

raised blood pressure and NDT- what to do?
I started on NDT in Sept 2022 and felt great within a fortnight after nine months of levo doing nothing for me and about 8 years of undiagnosed hypothyroidism steadily getting worse. My blood pressure has always been a normal 120/80 or thereabouts. In January, I got asked in the street by a health promotion
