Steve 6 and a half years since heart failure.
I try not to focus on things with my
heart
it’s really difficult as I think i get
health
anxiety as well. I would like to encourage others that it’s ok to feel different due to heart issues. I get really good care from the NHS, One day they may have a cure for heart failure. Here’s hoping.

Painful sciatica
Hi. I have spondylosthesis (bulging disc), L5 area and, having seen a surgeon at the Whittington Hospital, am now on a waiting list for facet joint injections. For the past several months I've had sciatica -- pain down the backs of both legs, worse when it rains (I can tell when it's going to rain) and

Spouse/partner of heart bypass advice
Hi My husband (53) is having his triple heart bypass on Friday. Obviously we are anxious, but does anyone have any advice from a spouse/partner perspective for the first few days after the op - what to expect etc?

heart
monitors etc - my GP and other
health
professionals went as far as to push the narrative that my palpitations where due to aniexty and my GP even diagnosed me

Prazosin side effect
In my own case it can lower diastolic to below 60, which tends to be bad for
heart
health
in particular if systolic is above 120 i.e. a pulse pressure (difference between systolic and diastolic) of more than 60.

Adult daughter refusing to speak to us
Her dad's
health
isn't great (
heart
) and she hasn't so much as sent a text to ask how he's doing, though she purports to love him very much. I have sent her the occasional "I love you" notes on Whatsapp, but she hasn't responded.

Has anyone had their Cardiac Recovery Rate drop, shortly after starting Nubeqa/daro or another kind of 2nd line AR?
Heart events are the most likely way to die other than from the prostate cancer, so it's good to have different ways of measuring the
heart
health
. I'm hoping that my body will adjust to the Nubeqa over time.

Now after numerous tests over the last 4 weeks they have informed me I need another
heart
procedure which lifted my spirits as I may get my
health
back to near normal. Yeah Right! After a phone call from one of the cardiac doctors on Thursday, they have put me down.

Cancer Diet Studies
If we could grade diet "difficulty to develop", on a scale of 1-100, weight loss would be a 30;
heart
health
a 50; type 2 diabetes a 60; and prostate cancer a 90, other cancers at 95+. Prostate cancer with a Gleason 3 is likely doable, Gleason 4 maybe doable and Gleason 5 likely not doable.
