Slow pulse
Hi Folks, I've just been for my second part of the heart stress test as the consultant wanted to know if I could take flecainide whilst I wait for my appointment to get another ablation. The resting test was last week but today I was told (after the canula had gone in) that my pulse was too low.

Cinetidine & Loratadine ect
I’ve noticed I don’t seem to have night sweats or certain other issues (feverish ache sensation) with my CLL when I take Claritin(Loratadine). Is that just me? I did some basic research and found that several drugs in this class including Tagamet are being researched as beneficial for cancer. Anyone
