Help interpreting letters
Received two letters recently after having two tests - echocardiogram and 24 hour ECG. I have a telephone appointment with my GP and hope he can clarify, but that’s not for 3 weeks. Can anyone tell me what the letters say, in plain English? Thanks. I take Ranexa, Simvastatin, Monomil, Bisoprolol, aspirin

Why continue warfarin?
Will I be okay to go off warfarin and switch back to taking 2 low dose aspirin daily? My cardiologist just shrugged and said he can't make me continue warfarin. I believe my diagnosis of AFib was erroneous.

Need your help again
Hi you lovely people again Your help and advice has been brilliant so I need to ask again if anyone has experienced the same thing I did tell the Heart nurse about the ache in my left arm and shoulder, she told me to try my spray, if the pain stopped it was not angina, I tried it and the pain was still

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force strikes again - Aspirin
The USPSTF never did recommend aspirin for PCa, of course, but they did for the prevention of colorectal cancer, in 2016. They are reversing that. Men with PCa have a greater risk for heart disease. Mark Moyad coined the expression “Heart healthy is prostate healthy.”, although he may not have been

Bruising
My husband is on clopidogrel and aspirin. He had an accident at work and grazed his calf and it is now badly bruised. He went to A&E and they xrayed it and said it was just badly bruised. This happened a week ago and then last night the top of the ankle is slightly swollen and the foot is bruised. Should

Medications after having a stent
Hello everyone, just wanted to ask which medications people have been prescribed after having a stent fitted, my dad is due to have one but is struggling to take both asprin and clopidogrel, they both really upset him and he takes lansoprazole which doesn't seem to help, has anyone else had this trouble

How Many ISTS do you have? I'm up to 8!
My journey started with my OrthopedIST that told me “sadly, your knee pain is not a torn meniscus, it’s arthritis”. After the pity party was over (and a bottle of wine was consumed) I pulled up my big girl panties and started my new collection – ISTS! My next appointment was to my new friend, the RheumatologIST

Hi, does any one else have indigestion caused by medication for hrart failure. Take ppis but dont make any difference. Take gaviscon every night it really helps. Only problem it is high in salt. Had endescopy found nothing wrong. Also have a lot of trouble with itching. Yake ramipril bisoprosel omerprezole

Heart Pills and Eczema
Nearly 10 months after starting on heart pills (ticagrelor, aspirin, ramipiril 2.5 , atorvastatin. lanzaprolole) following an angiogram (1 stent fitted), terrible eczema eruptions on my whole body plus itchy scalp and blocked ears. Could this be a side-effect of ramipiril which is a thiazide diuretic

Natural FET-
we’re going through natural FET- only taking aspirin & folic acid. LH positive yesterday & FER 2 scan in 2 days time. Lining apparently thickening nicely. The nurse mentioned likely transfer 7 days after FER scan but that seems a lot later than we were thinking. We’ve had medicated cycles before.
