best anesthesia for knee replacement surgery ?
Greetings… I experienced my first struggle with daily RLS after 2 emergency gallbladder surgeries in 2021. My RLS lasted 10-12 horrible months post op… a short time still I’m aware, relative to the experience of so many sufferers on this forum. Apparently I am one of the lucky ones for whom only daily

Turmeric
I have been amazed at the effect taking turmeric has had on the amount of pain I experience in my hands and how quickly this has happened. (Yes, I know about the placebo effect!) I would recommend anyone to try it (providing they check with their haems/doctors first). I take 2 capsules of turmeric extract

Apixaban side effects/adverse reactions
Many months ago, I tried Rivaroxaban but found it affects my ability to focus my eyes. Switched to Apixaban and that has seemed OK. However, two things have happened. I had a neurological assessment which found almost zero reflexes in my arms. And my feet have become very dry and are starting to become

Roflumilast/Daxas
Dear all, I just wanted to let all of you with severe COPD that I was given the opportunity last year, March 2022 to start this medication, Roflimilast. I had to request the outpatient appointment to be able to bring the possibility of being prescribed it. HealthUnlocked It wasn’t even mentioned to me

Has anyone used this for chemo? What is the likelihood of it helping where Docetaxel and Cabazitaxel did not work at all? Thank you

accidental overdose of thyroxine
I’m on 100 mcg thyroxine and the kart prescription they only had 25 mcg so I was taking 4 tablets a day and then the recent prescription was 100 mcg. I’ve just realised today that I’ve been taking 4 100 mcg a day I think for 4 days from how many are gone. In a bit of a panic. I’ve rang 111 and they called

inflammation in eyes
I have an inflammatory eye condition either episcleritis or anterior uveitis. I’ve been on steroid drops for this which have given me cataract. On top of this inhave 2 stoma bags for a perforated bowel ( which triggered the eye inflammation). It’s been a horrendous time and I’ve become very down.

Anyone tried PIP Apixiban, post-ablation?
Hello I am now almost 5 months post-ablation and doing well with no AF/flutters since, and have resumed moderate trail running, cycling etc feeling great. I was taken off all medications except apixiban. I had assumed I would take it for life, but a week ago had to stop it completely due to worsening

Recurrent bladder irritation
Since my horrific experience of urinary sepsis I am understandably concerned that it could return, to that end I am neurotically testing it with a dip stick. No infection as yet however I am not convinced that the bladder sedative I was prescribed Solifenacin 5mgs, is doing anything. Does anyone else

baricitinib over 65
hi I hade a rheumatology appointment last week where I was told that if I was a new patient at 65 I wouldn’t have been given baricinib as new guide lines were that because it could cause coronary problems or some cancers this risk is higher over the age of 65. I was given the option to half the dose

D Mannose
Hello everyone Just wondered if anyone here has used D Mannose tablets to manage recurrent urinary tract infections and if so with what success? I’ve had this problem for a few years now and the Urologist suggested daily low dose antibiotics which I want to avoid. Despite trying all of the self
