Frequent palpitations making me feel rough
I had a successful ablation for AF in October but I'm still suffering considerably with PVCs. My EP has said that they are okay but they are making me feel ill. Sometimes it is every other beat, sometimes one in seven. I hadn't had many for 4 weeks but over the last 4 days I've had several episodes lasting

Ectopic Beats
I have had ectopic beats for some years but it was always infrequently. I recently started getting them more often and had a 24 hour holter monitor. I was told there were isolated PAC and PVCs totalling 50 in 24 hour period. They are now happening much more frequently I would say every 2/3 minutes

A long post - How medication was ruining my life, not making me better! Reassurance for anyone concerned about stopping medication.
Hi ladies. A very Happy New Year to you all! I am hoping that 2023 treats you all with improved health and a wealth of happiness. I have seen a lot of posts recently appearing on my feed regarding treatments and hormones, and so I just wanted to share my recent experience of stopping all treatments.

What is the process for FET?
Hi ladies I’m now planning my first ever FET and just wondered what the process of this is? I think I’m looking for a kind of time line as my consultant mentioned me going on the pill before this starts (I’m presuming the month before). I want to have the FET in May so does that mean treatment starts

I have tried made me bleed and the others I am too over weight for. The only one I haven't tried is the mirena coil and I am not keen on trying it either.

Superficial Endometriosis- conflicting advice!
Happy New Year Everyone! Advice needed if anyone also has superficial endometriosis? I have had conflicting advice. End of September I had a clear MRI with a private specialist surgeon, he said it was likely Superficial Endometriosis and he would give me a diagnostic laparoscopy and remove anything

Can you relate?
I’ve just signed up and written my bio, and wondered if there were ppl here that can relate? I’ll copy and paste it below :) From when I started my period the pain levels were beyond anything anybody I met or spoke with had experienced. Every month I have to take each day I’m on my period: 3,200mg

Cutting T3 questions.
So I have 2 pill cutters. One by my bed for first thing and last thing dose and another in my handbag for mid PM dose. So far I only cut one pill at a time and store the pieces in the pill cutter, but I was wondering if it was safe storage wise to cut a few more? Also, if I should get more active and

Surgery today stage 3 endo
Hiah Today I had the long waited laprscopy. Whilst in surgery they removed tissue from my womb, ovaries, rectum and up to my kidney stating it was stage 3 endo with previous scar tissue. I am to have my last decapeptyl injection on the 11th Jan following 4 weeks of HRT. Afterwards there's not much

Dienogest vs Zoladex
Hi Everyone, I have stage 4 endometriosis and Thoracic Endometriosis. It’s in my pleura adjacent to my vena cava and several places on my diaphragm. I’m on the mirena coil since December 2021 and was taking the progesterone only pill (cerazette) on top for the last couple of months. I became pregnant

If you take the pill in the pocket only, what frequency and duration are your AF episodes?
If you only take Pill in the Pocket, for example Flecainide 100mmg, I would be interested how often you have AF episodes, how long they generally last and if you always medicate with the PIP or do you do other things to resolve the AF episode. Do you have a recording monitor? Also, how long have you

Lost of treatment's efficacy
Has it ever happen to you that a pill loses its efficacy?Last June I switch to a new contraceptive pill, which allows me to have the most normal summer of my life, without any bloating and any pain. It is a couple of weeks that pain started to come back slowly, and now I have pain almost like before

does the manufacturer of generic med matter?
hi! this is a weird question. But today I noticed that the generic guanfacine refill I picked up for the same Rx and same dose of previous refill looked different than what I got in last months bottle. I realized that last month the 1mg Guanfacine ER pill has APO on 1 side and GUI1 on the other.
