Awful Fibrillation
thanks all who have replied I have not seen a Cardiologist face to face for three years , just phone calls spasmodically. You cannot get to see a GP here in Bristol either The last call I was told I should up my Dosage of Bisoprolol to 15mg as my legs are retaining water and I am poor on balance .

Reducing Nifedipine dose for the warmer months?
I am on 20mg x 2 daily Nifedipine for secondary Raynauds, I started in the Autumn last year. I know I need to consult my Rheumatologist about this but wondered if others do the same ? Now the weather is warming up, I'm finding it's very easy to go into overheat mode, in that my hands start to swell

fast heart rate but normal blood pressure
hi there! My 69 yo mum has been in hospital for the last week as her heart rate is too fast (roughly 117) she had a bit of swelling too which is now going down thanks to a diuretic. Her BP and oxygen levels are normal but all the medication they’re giving her to reduce the heart rate is causing the heart

Tapering well so far.
Down to 8 mgs methylpred. No probs so far. Going down to 6 tomorrow. I realize that this is more of a drop than recommended. I can raise and use both arms and hips haven’t frozen. Can sleep. Also, good news on queasiness from diabetes meds. Changed to Mounjaro from Ozempic. Queasiness less

Sitagliptin
Has anyone ever been prescribed sitagliptin for recurrent implantation failure? I had a biopsy in Coventry (Dr Brosens) as we’ve had 3 failed transfers with top embryos and it has shown results which are more in keeping with recurrent miscarriages (which I’ve never had, never had a positive test) rather

Rough in heat
My Fibromyalgia and neuropathy has been crazy lately. That happens for me when it gets hot. The burning sensation is annoying. My meds do help. But, what things do you do to help with the pain from the flareups?

Homeopathic treatment
I've lived with ataxia for around ten years and its grown progressively worse. Contemporary straightforward here's your prescription' medicine seems to have no place in its treatment. What about homeopathic medicine? Has anyone out there found a homeopathic treatment which has any effect on this debilitating

Gabapentin
I am currently taking 5 300mg Gabapentin a day. I'm also taking 0.5 mg of pramipexole 5 times a day and hydrocodone 3 times a day which helps. Gabapentin alone didn't help me but I hope it does you.

What is the first symptom you notice when your B12 is low......?
Hi, I don't mean the first symptom you noticed. What I am asking is, for those who SI regularly, what is the first symptom you notice when you have maybe pushed yourself to do too much, or are unwell with an infection, or drink too much alcohol, or are stressed, etc? Mine is a return of neuropathy, which

Triglycerides
I’m very pleased to say my total cholesterol has gone from 6.4 to 4.6 from March this year to August. I worked hard with diet mainly and exercise. However my triglycerides weren’t included in this blood test. Has anyone found that due to their thyroid problems that their triglycerides are raised?

Restless leg cure
Well I hope it is for some of you. I've been down all the various medication routes and magnesium cream and jels and nothing still the same getting worse by the week. Until someone suggested what worked for them and it's worked for me, I'll also add I've suffered with constipation for decades and nothing
