DC Cardioversion - Yes or No
For the last 18 months, my AF seems to have got worse, and I have suffered badly with a shortage of breath. I have had 2 lung function tests and 2 consultations with a Respiratory Consultant who has told me that my lungs are “normal”. I am on a very long list to see an NHS Cardiologist, and therefore

Cardioversion - 1 hour ago
Shout out to my local hospital and in particular ED team. I am posting via hospital bed in recovery. Presented to Caboolture Hospital QLD, Oz today at around midday today. PIP normally suffice to revert but after 2 days(Flec and Metropolol). I was in NSR but wasn't budging from 120 with a low blood pressure

PSA showing .014 - concerned?
I had RP 3/22, PSA went up to .095 3 months after. I started Orgovyx on 8/15/22 had radiation Jan & Feb 23 and started Abi 4/23. All my psa's have been 0 since 10/22. Now it is at .014. I see my oncologist next Tuesday but I don't want to wait for his answer. How bad of a sign is this? I'm guessing

There is hope
Hi all - I wanted to update everyone on a positive experience and to hopefully debunk some of the myths. For context I live in the Republic of Ireland and also have private medical insurance (this is very common in Ireland). 55, male and generally fit. I was having episodes of waking up, bolt upright

Cost of Eliquis (Apixaban) in the U.S.
I live in the U.S. and I have decided -- the decision can be debated elsewhere -- to take Eliquis, which is available outside the U.S. as a generic called apixaban. My Eliquis costs $314 for 30 pills. I could do a bit better pricewise at another pharmacy 50 miles away, with long, long lines. I pay

Struggling with levothyroxine
Hi I was diagnosed with underactive thyroid in Jan this year. GP said it was 36. It has come down to 30. I was on 50mg of levothyroxine but had a awful time on them. They reduced to 12.5mg and slowly increased to 37mg. I have now been taking 50mg for three days and again now feel terrible, I'm emotional

Sub-clinical hypothyroidism
4 years ago in 2019 my thyroid levels were showing underactive borderline I managed to get into normal range and all I did was take Seamoss gel. However it's returned and now my TSH is 10.38 and T4 around 9. I do feel lethargic and fatigued and the GP wants to stick me on to a low dose of levo.. I don't

Nicotine patches vs gum.
if you’re not aware, I’ve been experimenting with the nicotine patch. I found that it’s too much. I wonder if that why the trial failed. I found a couple pieces of gum, 3-4 a day as needed better. I will soon be off meds. They never really worked that good anyway. Nicotine works just as good if not

High Blood Pressure meds with ET+Jak2

Ramipril
I'm on 10mg Ramipril and have been so for at least 15 years, maybe a bit longer. My GP has now asked me to cease taking it for 8 weeks. It was originally prescribed as a blood pressure control drug. It has done its job, up to a point ! In more recent years I have had added to the blood pressure mix Felodopine

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) Drug information
Upon diagnosis of atrial fibrillation (AF) many individuals are prescribed medications that include antiarrhythmic medication(s). These help to restore the normal (sinus) heart rhythm. They work by blocking specific electrical conduction channels in the heart. Many can slow the activation of the heart
