Immune to Isosorbide ?
During an unscheduled night in A&E (false alarm in the end) the attending junior? cardiologist thought I might be immune to my prescribed Isosorbide mononitrate dose (2x20mg daily) no action was taken at that time and I was discharge with no fault found (again) I'm scheduled to see the team as an out

Nobel Prize - William Kaelin, Peter Ratcliffe, and Gregg Semenza.
I was interested to see this morning's news [1] because it has a bearing on a point I was recently trying to make (unsuccessfully). It's not uncommon to find someone on a cancer site claim that cancer hates oxygen. 'If only we could get more oxygen to the cancer it would die.' PCa is not at all inconvenienced

Let's Start Again - a tale of Woe
After finishing my first 3 days on week 1, way back in Feb, ..I told my doc, I had some chest pains, as they tell us to report. Not severe I hasten to add, I thought they were probably caused by using muscles that had been dormant for too many years.... However, at the end of W1, they had gone..woopi

How do I get better care?
I have coronary artery disease strong family history - high cholesterol- had 3 stents put in 2017 in a midland hospital after which I felt excruciating constant pain like somebody was turning a knife in my chest - in the hospital I was given paracetamol for the pain and nothing else I would sleep for

ANGINA WORSENING??
Hello everyone. Feeling more tightness in chest since weather cooling. Can exercise no problem whatsoever. Take GTN spray and do feel better once I take but was wondering whether I need to be on other medications if i have to take my spray daily when it's cold outside?

What is energy?
This page on the British Nutrition Foundation website was mentioned here recently. It encapsulates almost every incorrect belief in mainstream nutrition, and I thought it would be instructive to pull it apart: https://www.nutrition.org.uk/healthyliving/basics/what-is-energy.html I do realise, incidentally

Should I have a flu jab?
Diagnosed with Coronary Artery Spasm in August last year and discharged by the cardio at that time. I’ve not seen anyone at all about it since and just have a GTN spray, but no other medication. BP is low normal, cholesterol is within acceptable limits so I guess I may not actually need any other medication

I'll never forget angina, nor the unexpectedness of its visitation.
In 1993 at the age of 57 I had an acute and prolonged onset of pain in my chest, unlike anything I had felt before, and quite impossible to ignore, while I was attending a meeting. Doctors were reluctant to diagnose it as anything to do with my heart. Diagnosed it as a muscular spasm. Later that year

Niggles after stent
Morning, I was diagnosed with angina back in early June. Sought a second opinion as I was essentially sent home with rampiril and a GTN spray. I ended up speeding up my very slow progress paying for a private angiogram. Cardiologist was sure I was fine and wanted to eliminate concerns. Shock for both

Hypoxia induced cancer stem cell enrichment promotes resistance to ADT.
New study below. One of the myths we regularly run into is that "cancer hates oxygen". People buy into dubious ways of delivering more oxygen to their tumors. A tumor will eventually outgrow its blood (& hence oxygen) supply. A lack of oxygen (hypoxia) will result in the generation of hypoxia-inducible

Unstable Angina
I am looking for some advice/guidance. I had a cardiac arrest a year ago and since then and over the years I have had six stents. My question has two points. Several hospitals visits ago it was mentioned that I had unstable angina and medications were adjusted to try and compensate. I was admitted to

New shoes!!
Been on holiday for a week with no running, but miles of walking (and lots of stairs/steps for strengthening my knees!). Discovered that there was an 'Up and Running' store near where we were staying (isn't one near where I live ☹), so called in. Spent a lovely 45 minutes getting my

Imposter Syndrome in the morning
My daily routine- sound familiar? First thing: I feel good. Bit uncomfortable, but nothing much. Why am I not working? I could do that DIY job at least! I’ll try driving this morning, then do the ironing. Big guilt trip because I’m letting everyone down and clearly THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH ME. Why
