Gynaecomastia (man boobs)
Do any of you men have this condition? I've read that liver disease can cause this (imbalance of testosterone and oestrogen) but it can also be a side effect of Spironolactone diuretic medication. I have cirrhosis and also take Spironolactone for pitting oedema in my lower legs and feet (the medication

How much has lockdown increased your alcohol consumption?
Before the beginning of the year I would go to work come home 8ish and a quiet night 4 pints. Over the weekend 14-16. Now thanks to having to stay at home with a laptop it's been ~6 pints weekdays and that's restraining it because I get so annoyingly lonely and fed up by 4pm I want to grab a beer. Weekends

Caught ‘Red Handed?’ 24 F, Scared
Hi all. I’ll begin this post by admitting that I have severe health anxiety, and have previously diagnosed myself with some horrifying maladies that ended up having no basis in truth, so I may just be overreacting. However, I’ve recently (over the last week) been experiencing some pressure/very dull

vision drops after injection
Does anyone know why vision drops after injection? Both my eyes got injected yesterday. Left eye vision is okay but right eye vision drops significantly. Should I contact the doctor? To be precise, I am sure my vision is dropped, not blurred. Btw, what I have is myopia related wet macular degeneration

Liver Hemangioma
I have just been diagnosed with a liver hemangioma. My dr says these are common. I have never heard of them before: is there anyone who has this and what do you do as far as follow up

Home or Work
I have
Dilated
Cardiomyopathy
(Heart Failure). I work for a local bakery on shift and luckily I'm fit and well. As a key worker I'm expected to work unless I have a letter to express otherwise. In going to work am I putting myself or my family at risk!?

Pain that only occours when I drink alcohol
Been a heavy drinker for a few years, especially during the first 3 months of this year, until I noticed pain and bloated feeling in upper right abdomen after a particularly heavy night. Abstained for a few days after the feeling subsided, tried drinking again and the feeling returned, abstained again

What assistance can my Mum get?
My fiercely independent 85-year-old Mum has deteriorating eyesight due to Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration. Until recently she was a very active walker, knitter/crafter, involved in church etc. She's had regular injections in both eyes for > 18 months now but her vision continues to deteriorate.
