New Year update
Firstly Happy New Year to everyone. Had a phone call last Thursday from my surgery to book an appointment for a blood pressure review. Had the appointment this morning what an utter waste of my time and the GPs time they wanted to see me as my BP is still stubbornly very low and I'm still getting lightheaded

Angina?
20th October I started to feel unwell after a week of stresses. Then the day after thought I had a bit of a bug from my granddaughter. By the next day I felt I had indigestion that seemed to come on as soon as I began to eat? Monday to wednesday bouts of pain in chest through to the back, neck, jaw

GTN spray
I have been advised to use my GTN sprat when I have pain in my chest to see if it helps relieve it.As yet I have not as I hate the side effects. The day I had my heart attack I was given several doses of it and the side effects were horrendous. I felt like my head was in a vise and eventually vomited

Excessive yawning when walking- a weird one
The past few days I've been struggling with fatigue, heavy legs and chest pain niggles, not feeling up to my usual walks. Today, I thought sod it & decided to push through & go for a walk. Did my 15 min warm up on the flat & started to walk up a slope - then I started yawning. For the next 10mins

Rectal fissure - healed!
I'm not sure if this is the correct group to post in as I do not have IBS, however for 10+ years, I had a rectal fissure that just wouldn’t go away. I live in the Caribbean, have a healthy lifestyle and diet. Years ago, when first diagnosed with the fissure, I was prescribed Lidoprocto suppositories

Hi everyone, I am 3 weeks into a 6 week phased return to work after my heart attack in May 23. I am doing catch up training only, presently, but the thought of dealing with angry customers, is worrying me. GTN spray getting belted and that’s before taking any calls. I don’t want to jack it in. Do

28 year old male with congenital AVS with recent mechanical aortic valve replacement with ascending aortic graft
Hi all, I have lived with my congenital AVS fairly well up to the age of 22 when I needed the intervention, which was to replace my leaky valve with a mechanical valve, along with this unfortunately I also needed an ascending aortic graft put in too due to the damage caused over the years. Ever since

Problems with stiff GTN pump action
My 90 year old mum has a GTN spray, but the last few bottles she has been given are too stiff for her to use. She says that a few years ago the spray was a different make and easier to pump [but she doesn't have the name of the manufacturer]. Has anyone else had this problem, and/or do you have any

waiting for a diagnosis
