Subconjunctival Haemorrhage and anticoagulants.
I noticed I had a subconjunctival haemorrhage in the left eye this morning when shaving. Unfortunately, I had already taken my morning dose of apixaban before I noticed it. I couldn’t get a GP appointment even by phone. Does anyone know what the advice is in this case? Is it recommended to pause the

No lung reduction for me
Hi everyone, hope your all as well as you can be.Well I saw my Respiratory doctor at hospital, and after a meeting with specialist at Guys London, I am not suitable for lung reduction due to the fact that I am stage 3 and lungs are full of Emphysema holes, I only have 40% lung function in both lungs

Anca vasculitis
I have had this illness about seven years now and am not having infusions now though I do have an injection of methotrexate every week. I live a quite busy life but am always tired as vasculitis gives me chronic fatigue and bad pains in joints. Now apparently a lot of the pain is I'm told arthritis

Glioblastoma and Parkinson's; hereditary?
My mom was diagnosed with gliblastoma (brain cancer) in 2000. I was diagnosed with PD in 2015, If I understand it correctly, the folloing article indicates both conditions apparently can involve the same set of genes. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7468383/ I am wondering if I might

My fiancé suffered a major stroke two weeks ago a day after being diagnosed with atrial fibrillation which caused two blood clots. He was in Addenbrooke’s for six days where the doctor told me if he survived this as it’s likely he could have another stroke that he would end up in a care home. I’m absolutely

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

Blood tests whilst pregnant
This is a question after reading posts+research. I understand there is a Def link between underactive thyroid/Hashimotos kicking off whilst pregnant+a link between Hashimotos+pre-eclampsia. Speaking from experience many years ago, for me this seems clear. So, just as mother's are checked re diabetes

Selegiline - Noticeably improved symptoms
My new neurologist started me on Selegiline 10 mg/day. In two weeks I reduced my Sinemet from two pills per day to one. My tremor is much calmer and I feel more clear. So far no negative side effects and I take the first 5 mg on an empty stomach.

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

Anyone know about Dr's or consultants prescribing metformin for endometriosis?
I recently got access to ALL my medical records from the consultants I had been referred to over the years and saw that in the past I had been prescribed metformin, altavita and amitryptaline at the same time by an endocrinologist. I presumed at the time it was for my underactive Thyroid and wasn't on
