Ear blocked after my CABG bypass
Does anyone get any ear muffled after surgery? My right ear is like a little blocked, a little muffled after 10days into my surgery. Just curious if this is common. And having sleepless nights. I managed to wink only 30-60min and will be awake. Surely frustrating Cheers

Bladder contracture Options?
As a result of PC treatment and a TURP (after radiation, not advised) to correct a brutal catheterization I now have extreme difficulty urinating and at this time can not even get a catheter into my bladder. I have straight caths arriving later today and hope to be able to get one of them to work since

ADT and Docetaxel worked for treating the Prostrate and Pelvic Mets, but 2 out of 3 ain't bad
Recap: I'm a 61 baby who was DX in Dec 2019 with Stage IV APCa, GS9, PSA 50, with 3 mets found on my pelvis and a metastasis in my bladder which is preventing flow from the left kidney as the mass it's constricting the urerter. So, my PSA is now 0. 05 (Hurray!! đź‘Źđź‘Ź) Casodex and Eligard (my ADT) combined

My first post- I had a heart attack and stent 4 weeks ago. I used to exercise 4 times a week, cholesterol under 5, not over weight and all this was so out the blue. I have been so confused What I can and cannot do ever since and have been reading what everybody puts on here and google is my new best

Beer is good as I can't drink 3 litres of water!
Beer is good as I can't drink 3 litres of water. With all the drugs I have to take, I try to drink lots of water, but it's hard. Between chemo sessions it's hard enough to eat and drink as it is. But as week 3 comes around, I'm starting to feel a lot better, so I find a few cleansing ales really goes

Soluble aspirin
Good morning everyone, I had a heart attack and stent fitted 2 months ago and I was wondering if anyone else might have had any problems with soluble aspirin? I have a constant ringing in my ears and feel very congested for most of the day. Thanks in advance, Paul

Sudden appearance of a double chin.
When I had an angiogram several months ago, I awoke the following morning with a lot of loose skin under my chin. I've never had a double chin and this disappeared after a few days. But now it's suddenly returned. It's not fatty, just loose. I have gained a little weight during lockdown, but nothing

Getting back up again, sometimes it’s an effort
So last week I had 4 more Stents fitted, giving me a total of 15. 6 years ago I had a quad CABG, been living with heart issues for 20yrs. I’d finally got myself fit again, sub 30 min Parkrun, 50k trail run completed last year and managing to go running for long distances. Didn’t expect to have another

Slow heart rate
Has anyone suddenly had a slow heart rate? I had cabg x 4 in April 2019- been well since but my resting heart rate now 54ish. NHS website says +60 should be norm. Docs have reduced bisoprolol but not making any difference. Feel tired with it.
