Post SABR (SBRT) side effects
My father underwent 5 rounds of SABR alongside a 4-month injection of Lupron. He finished his last radiation treatment on Feb 18th. The last three days he has been experiencing a lot of gas and diarrhea. I messaged the radiation oncologist and he suggested Imodium and the BRAT diet. Anybody have any

However, as my kidney function had been low for thr last few months (57) I made a conscious effort to avoid salty foods. Yesterday’s

Hi. I'm new here. I had a series of HAs, an angiogram and a stent in the LAD coronary artery two weeks back, in Oxford's JR hospital. Everything was fine, and this miraculous operation described as 'routine'. Since then I've often felt perfectly ok, but have also had days (and nights) where I almost

Angina
Hi all, Can I ask what your angina pains you get, as I am having different pains recently like electric shock to the heart they only last for a second, the other night I had about 8, I took gtn and the pain did go eventually. My doctor at the hospital said that shooting pains are not a symptom of angina

Citalopram
I am quite traumatised as Citalopram almost killed me. I had to stop it cold turkey in November. The side effects came on slowly over about 8 months beginning with feeling withdrawn and one muscle shaking in my hip. It progressed to problems with coordination including feeling my eyes were not working

Coming off Sodium Valproate
I stopped taking sodium valproate about three weeks ago after cutting down to half a pill for a few months. I'm a little worried as I've seen a lot said about the possibility of seizures and would like to know how long of not taking it would have me in the clear? I'm unable to go see a Dr so would really

New girl unsure of what things mean
Hi Im new here & unsure of what this all means. I have had a few episodes of chest pain with pain in my jaw. (Four times it has happened in 7 weeks) GTN spray does help, I have needed to use it twice in two of my funny turns & three times twice. No evidence of a heart attack from ECG or blood tests

Hello , my question relates to my bloods, re Vitamin B12 replete Plasma Folate level, is a result of 7ng/ml ( 4.0-20.0) considered low?
Think i may have hypothyroidism. I have epilepsy and been using medication for 40yrs, sodium valproate/epilim. Just discovering it can stop vitamins and minerals being absorbed into the body properly and cause Thyroid problems. My bloods came back as deficient in vitamin D, as 24 nmol/l , testing range

Angina and ECG
I have just come home after 2 days in hospital following an episode of prolonged chest pain which I treated with GTN spray, but which kept coming back over several hours. Doctor in A&E diagnosed heart pain and I was admitted. Kept having episodes and was put on a GTN infusion, which helped the pain

Docusate in oral solution
Hospital sent me home with this as tablets not available. I tried one mouthful and it excoriated my tongue and throat as if I'd poured acid down my throat. Daren't try it again. Anyone experience of this? Am I supposed to dilute it further? Leaflet doesn't say so. Candy x
