DBS and weight gain
For those who have had DBS, did you gain weight after the surgery? I have read it is possible to gain weight as the “ reward or impulsive part” of our brain is affected.

Update
I’m getting released today from the hospital. I had my defibrillator wire removed this past Wednesday. A very delicate procedure considering the wire has been in for 17 years. The wire has damaged my Tricuspid valve in my heart allowing blood to back up into my liver and cause cardiac cirrhosis. Hopefully

Sanjay Gupta and anticoagulants
I just watched Sanjay Gupta's YouTube video on anticoagulants. He said it is not the Afib but the company it keeps that is responsible for a stroke therefore anticoagulation is only advised if you have other factors i.e high blood pressure, diabetes, heart failure etc. If that is the case why are all

Covid booster
I've just been to have my covid booster and they refused to give it because I have had open heart surgery in August, said I could be at risk of inflammation around the heart, I now have to get advice from Cardiology Consultant to see if it is ok to have. Anyone else experienced this? I had Astra Zenica

Arthritis or hyper mobility?
My mam, who is legally blind, could see how swollen my shoulder was when she was putting
deep
heat
on my shoulder. Anyways went to the doctor and got referred to the physio where I found out that I have hyper mobility in my joints and that my shoulder is unstable.
