. However, recurrence is a possibility post-surgically.

my mum - end stage liver failure
The hospital told me on Friday that this is part of end stage
liver
failure
, but we weren’t aware she had that. They apologised but said a doctor needs to discuss it further. Since then there hasn’t been a doctor available over the weekend to talk to us and we are left in limbo and very worried.

Alchoholic liver failure
My 55 year old brother has been diagnosed with alcoholic

Pace and Ablate
I am scheduled for a pace and ablate procedure in October. I've been on multiple rhythm control drugs which sooner or later failed, including Tikosyn, had multiple cardiofversions, and one ablation which failed, I'm told because of my huge left atrium; so I wasn't offered any more ablations. All of

Breathlessness- pollen or something else?
I just wanted to ask if anyone else has been experiencing more breathlessness with the weather change. My mum has Permanent AF with heart failure. She’s had bisoprolol increased in February this year from 3.75mg once a day to the same dose twice a day. We had a GP appointment last week which I asked

Amiadarone side effects
I have been on Amiadarone and a whole host of other drugs since late February, when I had cardiogenic shock followed by a cardiac arrest. In the past few weeks I have developed a blocked tear duct with bleeding from it, and a very nasty, lumpy, red and sore-feeling rash on my hands and lower arms which
