Is anyone with CKD on Clonidine b/p drug?
I am stage 5, and had to be taken off Losartan because of hyperkalemia. My Neph gave me a new drug which I couldn't tolerate as it made my heart race. So she said maybe you dont need to be on a b/p med since that ofc visit it was only 130/xx. I subsequently had an appointment with my cardiologist

diabetic macular oedema or not!
I went for my review at the eye clinic today and the doctor there said she couldn’t understand why my right eye was not improving but my right eye had. She also said that it was strange as my blood sugars were very well controlled. She went off to speak to a consultant and the result of that was I am

Question and other experiences with PSP, CBD & Lewy Body Dementia.
Hello, I have not commented on here for quite some time, primarily for lack of time caregiving for my husband with the above diagnoses as well as my 90-year-old mother with dementia. My question concerns my husband and the decline of his diseases. He, Terry, is 64 years old and was diagnosed with Sleep

Amiodarone
I had Cardioversion on 30th August. Heart went into sinus rhythm after third attempt but unfortunately slipped back into AF after just one day. I had a call from cardiac nurse this afternoon telling me the plan is to put me onto Amiodarone and then try another Cardioversion. I understand that the Amiodarone

So that time has come when I am having my last Rituximab infusion on the 22nd November, it’s been 3 years on the treatment and my Consultant has told me that’s the max. My ANCA marker is low but what happens next? I have a Consultation with my Consultant on the 20th October and of course I will ask her

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.

Going off Eliquis
I had persistent AFIB for many years until I had an ablation procedure in 2022. It was successful and I have not had an AFIB episode in over a year. I check my sinus rhythm every day with my Kardia Mobile device and I am on 100Mg Flecainide per day. I am a 72-year-old man and very physically fit. Because

Painful arms and shoulders
I went into afib in the early hours of Friday morning and I knew pretty much I would be in it for 30 hours plus.What was different this time was the arrythmia wasn't so severe, the heart rate remained under 100bpm often down to the 60s & 70s and although my BP was all over the place I could carry on
