Side effects after several weeks of taking losartan
On Losartan 50mg, for 8 weeks, had stomach pain but that's gone. Now feel fatigued and slightly dizzy. Can this occur after so many weeks?

MABs - Encouraging, but not really
Couple things…. 1. Has anyone taking Calquence received a MAB infusion? Waiting to hear from my Dr to confirm it’s safe and doesn’t cause any drug interactions. Seems unlikely, but I want to be certain. 2. Applied for a MAB infusion via the Stanford Health process and explained that, although I didn

Plant Sterols and Levothyroxine
Being hypothyroid my cholesterol levels have been quite high-last reading was 7, 2 years ago. Have been using a proactive margerine as don't want to go on statins. Has anyone had any success with plant sterol supplements? Are they tolerated with levothyroxine? Any anecdotal experiences would be appreciated

High cholesterol in family question
In my mums side of the family high cholesterol seems to be an issue. It’s not been confirmed that it’s FE but my uncle at the age of 51, slim, healthy, non-smoker and had a clean diet, had a massive heart attack. He passed away a few years ago at 66 due to heart failure. He was told it was caused by

Does anyone take methyldopa and how does it affect them . I just been prescribed it because my blood pressure is not going below 160 systolic. I also take losartan 100mgs and bisoprolol 1.25mgs . My GP is running out of options because I am sensitive to other hypertensive drugs . She’d said this is

Has anyone tried oxymorphone?
Hi, has anyone here tried oxymorphone for RLS? oxymorphone is similar to oxycodone but with much less sleeping difficulties in comparison with oxycodone. I have been doing extensive research for an opioid which exerts less sleeping difficulties because the oxycodone I am taking gives me severe insomnia

“Shriveling” and losing fat and muscle
Hello everyone, In the last few months I’ve gotten a lot more wrinkly and my extremities are beginning to resemble toothpicks. Especially noticeable in my thighs and rear. I’ve had trouble with healthy eating during this pandemic and with filling up if I don’t eat carbs. I’ve lost a few pounds

Portal hypertensive gastropathy
I went for a gastropathy on Monday to take biopsies to test for EOE (Eosinophilic Esophagitis). Whilst in there they found 2cm sliding hiatus hernia (not too concerning). Also found portal hypertensive gastropathy with prominent red varices - non bleeding. Waiting for follow up with hepatologist now
