How UV affects us
Looking west Isle of Wight, Taken on a local walk a few weeks ago. I found this an internet explanation. Thanks to Striated Cacara. UV rays damage the cells of the skin. When the cells of the skin become damaged from UV light, it causes them to die, in a process known as apoptosis. In a person without

Verapamil Allergy/Vasculitis
I am so, so devastated. I have been down a long road of medications for my persistent PACs/Bigeminy. They were able to ablate the SVT but couldn't get the PACs. So at the end of a long road of meds, I finally found Verapamil, which actually stopped the PACs, and I was so, so thankful. I was able to

Taking antihistamine with cirrhosis
I am suffering from pet allergy and would like to take antihistamines.. which over the counter are safe with cirrhosis? Are there any other suggestions to relieve the symptoms. All blood work are within normal range and living a normal healthy life, obviously no alcohol.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) vs Heart Attack
The difference between a sudden cardiac arrest is an 'electrical' malfunction in the heart - causing it to stop beating. A heart attack is a 'plumbing' problem when one of the coronary arteries becomes blocked preventing oxygen rich blood reaching

Hi folks . . . those smokers or ex smokers on here may be aware of this screening programme currently being rolled out. Apparently the scan can ID a number of incidental issues including Liver Lesions which I believe are not usually related to alcohol consumption. However, might they also detect Fatty

Medication (Drug) Treatments for Heart Disorders
Just as there are many different antibiotics to treat different infections, there are several different medications to treat arrhythmias, as all medications affect everyone differently, it is always a good idea to speak with a Medical Professional about which medication is best for you. For further

AF - a wide range of different varieties?
I’m new to the Forum and wonder if my “type” of AF is common. I have several friends who have AF and they all seem to have different types. I am a fit 71 year old - playing sport several times a week. When I have an AF episode I usually can’t feel anything- I only became aware of my AF because of

Reducing bisoprolol
After an ablation in early April I went into symptomatic AF after two days but have since had a successful cardioversion. I remain in NSR and on advice from the arrhythmia nurse have reduced my bisprolol from 5mg to 2.5 mg daily. I'm a week into the lower dose. My heart rate has increased, which doesn't

Bisacodyl has been prescribed for me
I’ve been on laxido for constipation for the last two years or so. At first it was ok with very little side effects. However, recently over the last few months I’ve been suffering from bloating, trapped wind and excess gas which are side effects of laxido. I met with my gastroenterologist today and

I am currently on Tegratol 200mg twice daily, 9mg warfarin and 10 mg Bisoprolol daily. It was also suggested I start on digoxin although my heart rate has not been

Do you or someone you know have Atrial Fibrillation?
Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia affecting many individuals worldwide. AF can increase the risk of stroke. The irregular heart rhythm causes the blood to pool and this may cause a blood clot to form in the heart chambers which can then be carried to the small blood vessels in the brain
