Decreased urine output suddenly
I have never faced this problem but today I have noticed reduced urine output (around 500 ML) after drinking 3 litres of water. My last gfr one month before was 25. I have never seen swelling but today in feet, there is some swelling. I am very tensed. I don't know what happening?? Are kidneys failing

Increase in Ramipril. Raised BP
My GP has changed my medication from 2.5mg to 5mg ramipril. I’ve been in increased dose for 4 days now. I’m already taking amlodopine 5mg. Today I’ve had severe headaches and now checking my BP the reading is 192/101. Heart rate 83. Has anyone had similar experiences with this change of meds?

Felodipine and chest pain
I’m 52 and had been taking Losartan 10 umg for around 10 years. Six months ago my doctor wanted me to start 2.5 mg Felodipine as well due to high BP. Since then I started to feel chest pain. Now complained to the doctor about increased chest pain on the phone as no surgery is open. I was told to leave

Help with blood results please
Help with these results please. I have Hashimoto’s, been unwell for many years. Now on alternate 50mcg/75mcg Levothyroxine. Cholesterol has gone back up again, Endo wanted familial hyperlipidemia test as not overweight and have good diet, can’t go owing to carona. My doc said statins May be a problem

Felodipine and chest pain
I’m 42 and been on losartan for nearly 12 years. This year after a check in my bp I was given 5mg of Felodipine as I was taking the highest dose of losartan. Since then I have been breathless and have chest pains. The doctor ran blood tests and I had an ecg but doesn’t seem to consider the medication

LOSARTAN
To those of you who have not seen the news on this, there is hope that Losartan might be able to stop the progression of the Corona Virus. I came across this blurb on the internet the other day, so I Google searched Losartan and Corona Virus and this is the article you want to read: https://clinicaltrials.gov

Cholbiomex3
Has anybody taken Cholbiomex3 to reduce their cholesterol? It contains a probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum, Vitamin B3 (nicotinamide) and red yeast rice rich in monacolin K. The reviews read very good although some folk had the same reactions as they did from statins due to the addition of monacolin

NERVOUS EXHAUSTION
Please offer suggestions on how you have to not have contact with your own family members because they constantly cause you to have guilt + shame when I have been emotionally + mentally disabled because of it. It has ruined my life + the life of my wife. We have only a little time left with each

Effect of rhTSH on Lipids.
We can speculate. If rising TSH causes total cholesterol, triglycerides and high density lipoprotein cholesterol all to rise, why is it OK for people to see their TSH allowed to reach 10.0 (or higher) before any treatment? (Of course, we also have all the questions over the real importance of cholesterol

Can cholesterol level be affected by thyroid?
Hi there 😊 If you have an under active thyroid can it affect your cholesterol level as I've always been fine but since being diagnosed my cholesterol level is slowly been increasing & I have now been told that I need to change my diet. I have also had to cut out gluten, is this all connected? Thank

Psyllium husks - lower LDL
My cholesterol is very slightly above normal (total 5.2, HDL 1.6, LDL 3.4, triglycerides 0.7). A heart scan showed some plaque on my LAD. The consultant wasn’t concerned but advised me to lower the LDL to below 2.6. Well, I don’t drink, am maybe 4kg overweight but am training for triathlons and have

Hi. I have been on 5mg a day of Ramipril . I am a bit worried as of late my pulse has been in the 55-60 range, and I am no athlete !
My blood pressure has been 110/70 on low side and 140/85 on high side. I have recently quit smoking and started to eat better, but I am concerned of heart being to slow? Anyone had this?

Please help me understand these results
Hello, everyone. I am confused. The results of my last test and current cholesterol test results show my LDL HDL ratio is 3.3. But looks like everything is out of whack.. If I understand correctly. You are supposed to take the total cholesterol number and divide it by Your HDL Result and that is actually
