ICU Stay Neuro Challenges
Seeing if anyone has any insight. On May 16th my mom (62 years old) went to her cardiologist with chest pain. She did have afib for the last three year but she had that under control. When she went to her cardiologist on the 16th he sent her to the ER just because he was concerned with chest pains

Meds & raised blood sugar
My 86 year old brother, who has heart failure, was found at a routine blood test to have raised blood sugar in the prediabetic range. In response to this, he received a standard letter from the practice with the website of diabetes UK to consult for info. He can't use the internet and I was concerned

Pre diabetes update , raised uric acid,
About 2 weeks ago I had some blood tests at the GP surgery , received a text telling me I was pre diabetic and offering me to join a program to make health choices etc. I was shocked, so was my GP. She went through my history, current rehab, nutrition etc and thought the result was a false positive.

Surgery
So on Tuesday the 27th I will be going to the doctor about my fingers. They are performing what is called an angiogram extremityās bilateral procedure, they are gonna go in and put dye in my fingers to see where the blood flow stops and Iām mostly likely going to be losing the tip of my middle finger

Any suggestions please.
Hello. I wonder if you would be kind enough to give me your views on my latest results please. I currently take 100mcg thyroxine at bedtime. My GP withdrew my T3 ( 5mcg) around 5 years ago. Apparently it doesn't work and was too expensive. I feel dreadful. I'm underweight with a BMI of 18 and on top

endometriosis on uterine artery.
I had my second surgery yesterday. Surgeon removed a lot of endo but was unable to remove it from my uterine artery due to the risk of hysterectomy and we would like to have another baby at some point before I go down this route. I was just wondering if anyone else has this? Were you able to conceive

Fibroscan
Hi, I've posted asking this before, but unfortunately didn't get any response. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me where I can get a private Fibroscan? I'm in the UK. I have been referred to Hepatology due to the surgeon seeing "extensive fibrotic changes" of my liver during gallbladder surgery back
