Broken my shielding
Well I haven’t seen family since lockdown and haven’t been out of the house since January but the last two days everyone has been. My husband collapsed and there was no way I can manage him on my own so my family as well as sorting out the medical side of it came and did all the practical things.

Has quitting smoking and not eating sugar and salt snacks fixed my High Blood pressure?
Hi, I am a 50 year old male. I have been on ramipril 5mg for 7 years. I quit smoking a year ago, and I recently stopped eating any sugar or salt snacks. I have noticed my BP has been been alot lower as of late , such as 116/64 to 128/74. The other thing I have noticed is my Heart rate seems to have gone

CYSTATIN C
I would like to know if someone has tested Cystatin C. I have no health issues other than higher creatinine which was at 1.95 last time and Cystatin C was 1.63. I got blood test now and creatinine is 1.85 and Cystatin C 1.46. Thus I find that Cystatin c has dropped more than creatinine. Any ideas

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

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
