Amiriodone & NDT update
So I was put on Amiodarone post heart surgery 3 1/2 weeks ago. I thought it was a three week course but it's not. Now on 200mg per day for the next few months . And yes I think it's messing my thyroid hormones up. I did protest over taking it...due to its high iodine content and contrary indications.

Choosing not to have more children
However, my husband was extremely relieved when I told him last year that I don't want another pregnancy as I feel the risk for PP, and for longterm impacts such as bipolar or from treatments such as ongoing medication or
ECT
(which was recommended for my last episode but not administered), is too high

12 hours urgent treatment centre = Orthostatic hypotension,
after two recent new episodes of crawling around the house on my hands and knees being unable to stand upright I decided to ring the surgery. No telephone appointment or f2f available so called 111 in desperation. They called back within 4 hours, took lots of detail and said they would report to my

appointment update
Well left for my appointment with a HR of 111. ECG hospital HR 174, BP 167/132.- full blown AF. Deposited in chair and wheeled to the consultant. My husband offered to push as the poor nurse wasn’t strong enough ( I only weigh 67kg ). If the resource was available I would have been kept in hospital

Aortic Valve Replacement Monitoring
I had a surgical aortic valve replacement (tissue valve) in June and I have been lucky enough to have an uneventful recovery. I opted for private surgery because long waits and lack of communication from the NHS was causing me such stress and anxiety and recently retired I had savings I could use.

what is right?
Having had chest pains and breathlessness for a number of years and told it was asthma, despite pumps not working, and originally being told it was angina GTN spray did nothing. Also being told through the years that ECG showed something but still no diagnosis, trips back and forth to A&E. Then four

anxious about CAD - MRI result
Hi all, Does anyone know if a cardiac MRI would pick up coronary heart disease , or at least see some part of the arteries? I’m awaiting a CT scan with dye to look into CAD, but my consultant thinks it’s unlikely as I’m 32 , I am overweight and an ex-smoker so I do have some risk factors. My cardiac

Introducing myself
Hi, I'm new to the forum and thought I'd share a brief summary of how I ended up here. It's hard to say exactly when my symptoms started but in 2019, when I was 62, I found myself so persistently lacking in energy that I decided I should mention it to a doctor. The first doctor I saw did some blood
