Shoulder Aches
I'm new here, so I may be over explaining things a bit. So, I went to the ER two weeks back for left chest pain/shoulder pain. Convinced it was a heartattack. They ran blood tests, a ecg, a ct scan with contrast and a ultrasound to rule out bloodclots/pulmonary embolism. They told me my lungs and heart

Update on Cryoablation 3 weeks ago.
After being extremely nervous about the ablation I finally had it done and it really wasn't that big a deal. I was totally knocked out so do not remember anything and felt fine when I woke up. The next day I noticed my neck and chest/stomach area felt just a little sore, almost like I did too many sit-ups

What exactly does acid reflux feel like?
I've had acid reflux for around 2 years, mainly early days it was just a lump in throat feeling, leading to coughing and fatigue. I got healthier and it did help a lot but would come back now and again. For the past week or so though its progressed, assuming these other symptoms are that. I'm intrigued

RA and Bradycardia?
I have always had a low heart rate, never worried much about it. I first found out when at 38 I joined a gym for the first time, was having the fitness assessment and the instructor asked if I had been an athlete 🤔🤣🤣! A few years later I consulted a herbalist (early years of RA), he took my pulse

Transplant Assessment over and out (almost)
After having to postpone my previous appointment due to a dubious positive PCR test, I finally had my lung transplant assessment on Monday and Tuesday this week. Having read the booklet that they sent in advance, I had a fair idea of what was involved but still don't think I was fully prepared for the
