I need words, Wayne, for the live specialist
The bile reflux is not usually seen, but may show up after
gastric
bypass
surgery (which is not me.) So why do I have bile? And no, I won't take Nexium! So, finally, after months of the run around, I have a referral for a second opinion with the best liver specialist at UC.

PA from Autoimmune
Just was diagnosed with PA but not PA from a
Gastric
bypass
surgery. I went from a B12 of 86 to 280. I do feel better but my Endo dr said it wasn't increasing enough. I get 1 injection of B12 a month and I am a avid runner (training for marathon now).

PBC and gastric sleeve bypass
I’m contemplating have the
gastric
sleeve
bypass
to help me loose weight and hopefully keep it off. I’m wondering if any of you PBC ‘ers have had gastric surgery? If so, what has been your experience?

Costochondritis following CABG
Hi everyone I wanted to find out if anyone else had suffered from costochondritis after their CABG? I am 3 months post surgery. It’s causing me quite a lot of discomfort and pain around my sternum and across my chest particularly whilst exercising. My GP has injected some steroids around the area but

Statins and Alzheimers
After my bypass surgery in March 2015, I was given a statin drug specifically, Rosuvastatin, 10 mg per day. After several follow up meetings with my cardiologist he gradually increased this to 30 mg per day. Initially I didn't experience any side-effects but by the 6 month I began to experience severe

Medication Caused my HA and subsequent tbp surgery
Hello all. Finally managed to get logged in here although Ive been involved with BHF for a while . Finally after 3 years of asking I was given my answer by a wonderful GP at my local centre . That question was what caused me to have to have a triple bypass. The answer was Diclofenac . I then asked that

get fit before bypass surgery!
Just a bit of advice to all waiting! My husband is 3 weeks after triple bypass surgery. he spent the 16 weeks waiting getting fit for it and what a difference it has made. He walked 15000 steps a day, gave up drinking and lost at least 12 kilos. He is 9000 steps and getting better, eating well and healthily

SHINGLES
I have posted this to advise that CABg patients can ask for a shingles injection, like the flu jab. At this time only available to those over 70, however Dr's will take cabg as high risk. I was diagnosed with Shingles last night after an emergency appointment. Symptoms started with a feeling of having

Rapidly progressing coronary disease
So, this is what i have been diagnosed with after a previous stent and now CABG. FRom what i have read it doesn't paint a healthy picture for me. Wondered if anyone else has had this particular diagnosis. All the odds of a 10-15 year life span seem to have gone out of the window. If anyone has been told

Cough after CABG
Hi my dad’s finally home after bypass surgery. He has a cough that’s making it very difficult to sleep. We’ve used lots of pillows to prop him up as suggested. Any suggestions that might help
