I'm in stage 4 cirrhosis but confused about my doctor referring me to a transplant clinic while in a compensated condition! I thought it had to be absolutely an emergency for a transplant.

Travelling with Insurance
Hi folks, I was diagnosed with Decompensated Cirrhosis 2 years ago and have had regular routine 6 month MRI scans and bloods done which have all shown no features of concern and that my liver has fully recompensated. I mentioned that I was hoping to travel abroad to Spain and asked if I was OK with flying

Ventricular ectopic runs
Just been to the GP over the palpitations I've been having for a year or so and he said they are (from the way I described them to him) "ventricular ectopic runs" and I'm wondering what this community has to say about them...? They do feel ectopic as I get a 'missed' beat followed by a bigger one and

Flecainide (again)
Very interesting post by FraserB earlier. My problem is the opposite. Cardiologist raised my dose to 100mg x2 per day after being on 50mg x2 per day for a year and a half. After the third dose of the 100mg 2 hours before bed I felt terrible. The 2nd dose in morning I felt good with no reaction. Was worried

Eliquis and AF symptoms
Hi all, I've been following the posts on this forum and have received helpful feedback re blood thinners and AF. I was recently diagnosed with AF and was put on Eliquis, which I've not yet started because of what I heard about the side effects. I have bradycardia and experience flutters and lightheadedness

Bedranol
I have been prescribed Bedranol ( propranolol hydrochloride) for my anxiety. Just to use as and when I feel anxious . Has anyone else used this beta blocker ? I suffer from IBS - D and I’m worried it might cause diarrhoea. This would defeat the object of taking it completely!

Peginterferon and platelets
I started taking peginterferon 45 mg in November 2023 with a platelet count of 860. Since then, my bloods have been checked monthly, and my dose gradually increased. On Monday I will start 180 mg, alternating the dose weekly with 135 mg for a month, as my platelet count is now 665 and my Haematologist

Decipher this cholesterol reading please
I know there are plenty of knowledgeable people reading these posts so can you decipher this please Chol 3.5 mmol/L, LDL , HDL 1.78 mmol/L,Chol:HDL ratio , Tri 0.51 mmol/L. I don’t understand this. I’m guessing my cholesterol reading is 3.5, but what are HDL and LDL readings individually?

Post Cardioversion advice
After 4 ‘failed’ ablations, I yesterday had a cardioversion for atrial tachycardia. I went back into NSR after only one shock on the lowest setting and my EP was pleased with how the procedure went. Does anyone have any advice about how I can try to stay in sinus? I know it’s a bit of a lottery but

Benefit of coherent breathing
Before PMR, I was experiencing bouts of arrythmia. Even on controlling drugs, it still occurred about every 25 days. At the start of PMR, I was diagnosed with moderate Aortic Stenosis. A symptom of Aortic Stenosis can be arrythmia. I was told that my condition would deteriorate and so regularly monitored
