Understanding the vaccine priority
Am I correct in thinking that having had a heart attack and a stent and being 63yrs old, that this will place me in priority group 6 ‘16 - 64yrs - with underlying health conditions? I have always thought it did. I ask your advice on this as my 58yr old sister with no underlying conditions, lives in

Thapsigargin
Thapsigargin is an antiviral medicine that the University of Nottingham has found effective against a number of viruses including the covid. Boy, I tell you, the UK is really on the ball. I read about this on a place called SciTechDaily. The more treatments found, the better. Meanwhile here in the USA

Et and reviews
just wondering how often people with et aspirin only are reviewed. My haematologist is late with my review this time and obviously I understand there are bigger things at the moment like covid but I worry my review will be 2-3 months late

Pharmacy experience
My wife had an interesting experience at a pharmacy yesterday. After being on clopidagrel for 12 months post stenting, it was time for me to switch back to aspirin. She was asked who it was for, normal enough, but when the pharmacist found out I was also on warfarin he stated that no-one would be prescribed

Drugs pits stent
Had stents done yesterday. Now given Perindopril (used prior to stents) Bisoprodol Fumerate, Trangina XL (used Momomax XL prior to stent) concerned they will lower blood pressure too much as prior to stent BP was 125/75 or slightly less. Was surprised that nitrates are continued too. Think it is OTT

Weaning off Ropinirol.
Well...I finally started weaning off ropinirol. I take 2 mg at night and have been on this stuff for over 5 years. In that time, I've gained weight and no amount of dieting works! The ropinirol may or may not be the cause, but before I started that stuff, I had no problems. Now the ropinirol works most

Medication
Stent - I had a heart attack in August and after 3 admissions to hospital was finally fitted with a stent. I am on lots of medication and wonder if it will soon be possible to come off some of it. It seems a bit like belt and braces with having to take aspirin and another blood thinner?

Heparin and Asprin together IVF?
I've been prescribed LMW Heparin for our latest FET (although I had it for the last one, which also resulted in miscarriage). Has anyone taken (advised by clinic or decided for themselves) it alongside Asprin, during down reg and onwards, should there be a BFP?
