Chest pain
I hope you don’t think this is a really silly question but for my chest pain I use the GTN spray on top of all the meds, here comes the silly bit..... I know you need to go to hospital after a few sprays of GTN but I thought I saw a post on here that a hot water bottle can help with the pain, so would

Coronary Angiogram First Post on BHF
Hi Everyone I'm new to the British Heart Foundation forum. I have a multitude of medical issues including PAF ,Gerd , Silent reflux and IBS. Recently the Gerd and IBS have flared up causing epigastric pain and heartburn. Had a CT Scan Thorax to pelvis (with contrast) which thankfully was all clear.

GTN spray query
Can GTN spray make you feel really tired as a side effect ? Also I’ve needed to use the spray a few times in a few hours before, can I do 2 sprays in one go then an hour or so later if needed another 2 sprays for a few times without going to hospital, happened a few times but wasn’t sure if they’re

Having a panic 😢
I’ve been absolutely fine, diagnosed a few weeks ago with angina ( vasospastic and microvascular) I’ve a couple of other life changing medical conditions, for some reason I’m getting really upset. Suddenly panicking about angina, how it feels and what it’s doing to me when it happens, what if the GTN

Mini GTN spray
I have started running again 4 months after my triple bypass. Although my GTN spray is fairly small has anyone come across a really small emergency spray. It only needs a few sprays in it as it is just for emergencies. Thanks in advance

Covid19 saved my life
It was on my daughters 12th birthday, after rushing to be there for her special day, that my heart stopped beating - literally. Twice. Paramedics got a bad report from an airline crew so they gave me GTN and strapped an AED to my chest. It took a few minutes before they got the alarm and then an aural

Hypoallergenic Thyroxine medication required.
I have been treated for hypothyroidism for 28 years, mostly successfully on 125mg per day. However, I have suffered with abdominal pain for much of this time. Over a year ago a routine blood test revealed a suppressed TSH and my GP insisted on reducing my Thyroxine. When I protested I was referred to

Glycerine suppository
After a severe bout of diarrhoea I was unable to go the toilet for the following 6 days. For the first timeI used a glycerine suppository which had almost immediate affect. As my IBS seems to be caused by anxiety about needing to use a toilet outside my home I wonder whether it would be a good idea

deep breaths?
Heres a thing - when I get my chest pain, if I take a few really deep breaths it goes away! Anyone experience this? I cannot find anything online about this only the opposite ( pain worsens when taking deep breaths) Suggests to me that I do not have angina & therefore not advisable to try the GTN spray

gtn spray
Ive had a pain in my chest on & off for a week or so & doc gave me a gtn spray to try. Well, I could have cut my leg off & not noticed due to the most painful headache Ive ever had! Certainly got rid of the chest pain but I think that will be getting binned!

Feel like a fraud!
I've been restoring an old cottage and enjoying the process. About 18 months ago I noticed I was getting tired more and more easily, then I started getting minor chest-pains during some of the more physical activities such as carrying heavy materials etc. They were always minor. They always passed quickly

Out with the old, in with the new.
Loved today's run. Went out with no idea how far I'd go. I was a bit daunted by running in the sun and warmer weather but it's been ok so far. I still much prefer the cold and rain to run in. Today I ran the Humber Seawall up and back and felt better with my knees so stopped at 5m. Got home to find my

Advice re. my mum’s BP (NSTEMI last year)
Apologies in advance for the long post, but I feel like I’m losing my mind here, and the detail is relevant. We have an extensive, highly varied cardiac history, particularly on my mum’s side. She had obvious cardiac symptoms for years, even had a dodgy ecg when participating in a medical research project

Glycerin suppositories unavailable
Does anyone know why these suppositories are out of stock everywhere? Surely people haven`t been panic buying them! I do have them on repeat prescription but want to avoid visiting the surgery if possible so thought I would buy some
