I simply don't know how to give up.
On Monday December the 19th I go in the hospital for right knee replacement. Your prayers and good thoughts will be deeply appreciated. Some say I'm an idiot for doing this, especially most of my family due to my MS. But, I simply don't know how to give up. My knee is getting so bad that I think if

Swelling After Hip Replacement
Hi, My husband had a 2nd hip replacement 2 weeks ago. His leg is extremely swollen , is very uncomfortable and not improving. It is not thrombosis as that was checked a few days ago when the physiotherapist registered concern. He is walking well and exercised religiously before and after the operation

New Here — Most Recent Arrhythmia
Hi, all — I initially posted this to the Afib Forum but just found this group, which seems more appropriate. I was experiencing episodes of tachycardia sometimes lasting up to a half hour or so. Being a non-cardiologist, my first thought was Afib and, indeed, that’s what my Apple Watch said. I ended

Dofitilide without Afib??

Advice on Aortic Regurgitation
Hi, I need help with coping with severe fatigue which started Sunday 11th December. To give some more context, it started Friday 9th. I woke up dizzy. Other than that, I had energy and felt fine. I went to the hospital and they suspected BPPV. Bloods were all okay. The dizziness is better but fatigue

Blood tests and supplement advice please if you have a minute.
Hello everyone, I posted this a little while back but no comments so trying again, I know everyone is busy but I find help here invaluable. I am hoping I could get some advice on recent results. In late October I changed from 100-125mcg dose due to aches and sluggishness. Prior to this I had received

Replying to enquirer "fifteen".
You sent me a message asking for a paper on hypothyroidism and left ventricular failure. I've found this that might be of use: Br Heart J. 1982 Sep; 48(3): 278–284. doi: 10.1136/hrt.48.3.278 PMCID: : 7104121 Left ventricular function in hypothyroidism. Responses to exercise and beta adrenoceptor

Neely Diagnosed
I was diagnosed last August with ET, MPL mutation and platelets between 700-800 range. It has been very hard for me to deal with because I have medical anxiety and always have. I basically tried to ignore it, but with blood tests every 3 months to remind me, that’s not a good long-term coping strategy

AF after Covid jab
I have had 4 Covid jabs and each time have had a reaction that confined me to bed for at least 48 hours. In April 2022 after my pre op I underwent a total knee replacement - all went fine. I returned to have the pre op for my other knee to find that my heart beat was very irregular - AF had developed

How long do you give new HRT to work?
GP says 3 months. My body feels that's too long, coping with the side effects. Personally I would rather give new HRT 6 weeks to see if that's suiting me. What is the consensus please?

Early RA
Hello, I'm in a conundrum with blood tests which frustratingly were only taken because I wanted HRT! My CRP is raised but reducing (22-18-15) & ESR also a bit high but coming down over 3 months. I have had an abnormal Anti CCP (10) & above 7 is raised. The RF test was negative. I am generally well
