Elevated Diastolic Blood Pressure & Thyroid?
I’ve read that thyroid issues can increase diastolic blood pressure while systolic remains normal. I’ve been seeing a slight increase / trend with this. Has anyone else seen this and it meant levothyroxine increase needed?

I am 70 years of age & pretty much alone
I have had one sided thyroid problem for 25yrs & tests say its working fine but I gained 21 pounds over 3 weeks, all the usual underactive thyroid symptoms but no meds. All that's on offer is surgery, I have been told for many years you have abnormal cells, not cancerous but could turn that way. I have

Edoxaban and dreams and nightmares
Hi all, Hope you all have a great Easter ... plenty of chocolate and bunnies ..... or even warm, sunny, dry weather ! Have any of you who take Edoxaban experienced the worst most sleep destroying nightmares of a violent topic ? Or even any nondescript dreams or nightmares. I did put a post on here

Unusual positional ectopics and PAF
A few days ago, on turning onto my right side to go to sleep, after about 30 minutes I noticed palpitations (rather “heavy”ectopics and a slower than usual heartbeat which was “stuttering”) This lasted for several hours until I fell asleep. Last night this pattern repeated again, but this time when

Spontaneous Subdural Hematoma
I am 58 years old. A few months I started to develop headaches and neck pain that gradually increased in severity. I eventually went to the ER and was diagnosed with a minor subdural hematoma (SDH) based upon a CT Scan and was sent home for follow-up with a neurosurgeon. I have had no recent head

Post Ablation follow up.
This site is a wealth of knowledge and common sense so I wonder if people could share their experiences with me.I had a PV ablation for Afib in May 2023 in an excellent Leicestershire hospital and had brilliant care but since then have not been seen by anyone - but I have been given a date of September

8Fast Regular Heartrate
HiI was diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation about 3 years ago and I am on a low dose of a betablocker (Bisoprolol 1.25mg daily). I seem to go for quite long gaps without an episode and sometimes I'm not even sure if it is an Afib episode - I have other arrythmias so it can be hard to differentiate. For

Help please
Would anyone be able to recommend an endo in North Yorkshire? I've sent my GP lots of research about T3 and bradycardia and other heart problems because he's told me it's not necessary to test. So far he hasn't been in touch. He's also not happy about my TSH which he considers too low at 0.13. I've sent

15hour wait for an ambulance
I was told by GP to call an ambulance because I had a chest ache for about 3 weeks and was having AFib at the time. I explained that it was not a pain but an ache and asked if I really did need an ambulance? She was adamant I did. Called 999 at noon - ambulance arrived 3am! Hospital trolley in corridor

12 months waiting for nothing.
yesterday I had a telephone appointment from a cardiologist that I’ve waited 12 months for. To say I’m disappointed is an understatement. The last cardiologist I spoke to, said if I lose 10% of my body weight, an ablation would be the best option. The one yesterday, told me I had to have a BMI

could olaparib raise LDL cholesterol?
I took my master medical couple weeks back and the only blemish (apart from known blood work readings) is my cholesterol is high. My good cholesterol is in good range while the LDL bad cholesterol is in the upper end of the "high" range at 175.22. There is only a very high range after this. i last

Medication review
I have recently had a medication review from my GP(pharmacist). As I have now turned 65 it looks like in addition to the Flecainide/Bisoprolol I also will also need anticoagulants.
