Hello I'm slightly worried I'm taking Ticagrelor 90mg twice daily according to my alert card this medication should drop to 60mg after a year which I've just passed. I've just put my next repeat prescription in and it hasn't been changed to the lower dose I thought the doctor was supposed to change

Anyone had trouble taking their medication to Greece?
Hi. I am soon to be taking a 2 week holiday to Corfu Greece, post transplant. Can't wait, desperate! Have checked with consultants, they are happy with me taking a break, and I have good travel insurance (I think!) Have just been reading on the Gov.uk Travel Advice website, and it says Greece doesn't

Confused by what’s happened (54)
Hello community. This is my first post. I’m 54 and last Tuesday was admitted to A&E with a mild heart attack. (Does mild make it any less of a thing?..) 3 blood tests showed troponin of 16, then 23 & 23, and I understand that means something did happen, even though all 4 ECGs looked ok. I was

Steroids/treatments for Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS)?
hi there, I’ve unfortunately had 5 miscarriages (mix of IVF and natural), mostly chemical pregnancies. In between the miscarriages I was diagnosed with Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) which is a leading cause of recurrent miscarriages. The haematologists put me on daily Clexane injections and low dose

I’ve had enough
So prior to my last post, I thought I’d share my decision to get a private MRI done. The chest heaviness has turned into severe chest pain and I can’t even make it to the doctors even if I wanted to. I’ve showered twice this week and brushed my teeth 5 times. I need to find out what’s happening

ET/Jak2 postive
Hello! I was recently diagnosed with ET. I had not had bloodwork done in 15 years but just decided maybe I should and my platelets came back 600. They rechecked again 2 weeks later and they were 617. So, I was referred to a hematologist. After more bloodwork there, they found I was also Jak2 positive

REPOST: chest heaviness won't leave
Hi, I had a long trip this Feb. After coming back, I had a bit of chest heaviness. It's not left but instead slowly getting worse. I've been calling cardiology, my GP, the BHF nurses, went to A&E and have had very little help. Honestly, right now, I don't care about figuring out what it is, I just

Vitamin D, Fish Oil and NOACS?

bleeding after hyperbaric oxygen therapy
I had prostate cancer and prostate removed late 2018, 6 months later had 35 rounds of radiation in prostate bed because PSA was rising. All was ok until October 2022 when I had a heart attack. Cardiologist put me on blood thinners and 3 weeks later I had severe hematuria and had to be hospitalized.

Sertraline positive fit test
Hi I'm beside myself with worry as my partner has had a positive fit test, and is booked in for a colonoscopy next week.. He's been on a high dosage of sertraline for 13 years without a break, and I know there's a link between ssris and gastrointestinal bleeding...I'm wondering if anyone else has had
