Apixaban and subconjunctival haemorrhage.
After taking Apixaban for 6 days (2x5mg, daily) I woke this morning with a subconjunctival haemorrhage in the left eye. Yesterday, the eye had been bloodshot and itchy; I had hoped that it was just conjunctivitis and would clear up. As I had a similar subconjunctival haemorrhage three years ago, two

Prognosis for compensated cirrhosis
I have cardiac cirrhosis from right sided heart failure. Tricuspid valve is regurgitating severely sending blood back to liver, congesting it to the point of cirrhosis. I have no liver symptoms. Found incidentally on CT scan. Anyway, I know that survival is 9-12 years for compensated cirrhosis at diagnosis

Strange reactions to surgery.
I had heart surgery about 15 months ago and have had to deal with a lot of complications. A stroke being the main one. A couple of the smaller issues got buried, but I was wondering if anyone identified. I jump out of my skin at sudden noises such as the phone ringing. I also well up at emotional moments

anyone out there with aortobifemoral bypass experience?
hi, I found out in 2020 that i need to have an aortobifemoral bypass graft as my aorta is completely blocked. I suffer from severe claudication in the legs and buttocks and can only walk very short distances without needing to rest. While assessing for the ability to survive this op, i was found to

The French Paradox - Why the French Have the Lowest Incidence of Heart Disease in the Developed World
Wine should be consumed in moderation. I drink one glass of red wine with my dinner, between 1 and 3 times per week.

Last update on 5th valve replacement surgery
Hi all. Well, it’s now been 2 months since my surgery so thought I’d give a final update. A few little issues with fluid in the chest which has now gone. My medication has reduced significantly and I am ready to go back to work. Am driving with no issues and I’ve even been swimming a couple of times

Endocarditis advice
HELP! Just a bit of a back story - when I was 5 (weeks old (1998) I had valve replacement surgery and since then I haven’t so far needed more surgery to replace this valve again (I’m now 23) each year I’ve had check ups and everything has seemed to be working well enough for me to wait for my surgery

Bisopropol as pill in pocket
As my AF has progressed and I’m now experiencing longer bouts of tachycardia and sometimes irregularities I have been prescribed Bisopropol as pill in pocket by a GP. The episodes are still only 4/5 hours with my heart rate at approximately 180bpm for much of the time. When first diagnosed with AF I

New to Apixaban
Having been diagnosed with Arrhythmia, I will shortly start taking 5mg Apixaban twice a day. This causes me much concern. Will I be able to lead a normal life, eg play golf, go abroad on holiday etc and will I be able to have a couple of glasses of wine each day? I am currently a regular social drinker

So worried
Hello all As you may know I had an ablation 3 months ago for uncontrolled fast AF which had caused severe HF and valve leakage. Prior to ablation could hardly do anything apart from rest. Since ablation thought I was doing well. Much more energy able to do daily walking, nausea gone appetite back .
