Dry Eye Syndrome
Quick question. I was at opthalmology today re another matter and whilst there he diagnosed Dry Eye Syndrome. He said it was most likely another autoimmune condition I had. He said it would be a lifelong condition with drops a cream for my eyes. Has anyone else with alopecia been diagnosed with this.

Persistent afib
I thought I was okay now I'm in persistent afib ( since September 2022) but looking at the posts from yesterday's health unlocked (estesbubba post) people are saying it's not good to be in persistent afib as it causes the heart to work harder and then become enlarged and that can lead to heart failure

My dad died, now I'm back to square one
My dad died a week ago from a heart attack. Since then I became very anxious, afraid to go to the toilet at night, afraid me too will suffer a heart attack. I know my physical symptoms are due to anxiety, but my anxiety makes me doubt this. My husband and I are going overseas in March and leaving our

What should I do please?
I had a gastric bypass 7 years ago. A routine blood test showed my B12 level was 195. The GP said, "Take iron tablet's". I was unable to function properly with fatigue, dementia symptoms and I felt like I was dying. I saw a private gp who checked my results and said that I needed B12 injections. After

7 weeks ago then a
heart
attack 5 weeks ago, I also found out I had a heart attack probably about 10 weeks ago, so obviously I’ve still got a long way to go with the physical side but all this has really given me like so many others a mental health problem

Heart valve checks…!
Good morning. I had my aortic heart valve replaced over 8 years ago. It’s only just been brought to my attention that I should have yearly check ups. Out of the blue I developed AF with a resting heart rate of 170. I underwent a cardioversion which was successful. Only now I’m being told a yearly check

Bisoprolol 1.25 dosage. Coming off it?
Bisoprolol? I am on a very low dosage, 1.25 ml., and have been for more than a year. Over past months I have felt incredibly tired (sleeping for too long overnight/having naps during the day) and have been totally lacking in energy with no real interest (I don’t feel depressed) to move myself. On monitoring

APIXABAN
Just got home from the ER. I had a CT scan done of my head and everything was fine so they let me drive home. There is a lot of discussion and worry about "apixaban" and bleeding and other problems. I want to put everyone's fears to rest. Got mad at myself about 3 hours ago and slammed my head against

Ascending aortic aneurysm diagnosis
Hello everyone. I am a 54 year old woman who has had an incidental finding of a thoracic ascending aortic aneurysm. I have been told it's 4.4cm and they will monitor with CT scans but that the size that an operation will be necessary is 5.5cm. The surgeon explained this involves open heart surgery
