‘Pain therapy Intrasound’ Home treatment units - anyone tried them?
So these are for sale in boots in the pain relief section: intrasound therapy units. I wondered if anyone has tried one for their endo before I go paying £100 for one. They say they increase blood flow to an area - I’m not sure if that would be a good idea or not, but my pain is throughout my cycle

Heart arrhythmias, especially when tired
I'm new to this site and am glad to see posts relating to AFib and other people's experiences. I have been diagnosed with sick sinus node and have a pacemaker and take flecainide for AFib along with Metoprolol. I also have SVT. Lately I have been having crazy arrhythmias that seem to be worse when I

Tough decision: Zoladex and HRT or perservere with the pain somehow (trialling TENS)
Hi all, In January, I had a laparoscopy to remove an 8cm endometrioma from my right ovary and adhesiolysis. I was found to have severe endo in my pelvis and they couldn't remove all of it nor the growths which are on and around my bowel and right kidney. I have had two hospital stays since the op due

Bisoprolol
Just looking for others experience. Last year my dad (80) was taken into hospital and had to have a triple heart bypass, ablation and defibrillator. He was then put on bisoprolol. Since then he has no energy. Can only walk a few steps, his legs give way. He stopped taking them and his cardiologist advised

Do TENS machines help pain?
I’m thinking of buying one and was wondering if anyone has had success with them helping lower back pain and stomach pain of different ranges (sharp to dull achy to period cramps) Also is there any particular one I should buy? Thank you 💕

Bacterial Meningitis

Missed/Skipped Heart Beats?
Does anyone know what could be causing missed heart beats? I am a 25 year old female and have been getting missed beats since January 2018 everyday (very rare that I don't have any in a day) they mostly happen when I am sitting doing nothing e.g watching tv, playing on phone etc. I have had an ECG done

Metoprolol
I've been on sotolol for a few years now with no problems (besides it not completely con trolling my Afib.) I was recently put on metoprolol as well. I'm experiencing chest tightness and shortness of breath. Do these side effects eventually go away? Will the body acclimate? Thank you

Using cannabis for RLS
I'm a long term sufferer of RLS. Mine comes on in the evening when I'm trying to relax after a long day. I've never sought out any medication. Choosing instead to use a TENS unit wen the symptoms get really hard to deal with. That works fine for me. Last year I hurt my back and herniated a disc. I was

TENS machine?
Does anyone use one for endo pain? I’m wondering if it might really help? Can anyone recommend it (and if so, any brand?). Wondering if the maternity ones might work well? Thanks! X

My neurologist referred me to a pain clinic for a Greater Occipital
nerve
block
. I had this in Nov 2017. Very painful to have and I had a reaction to it. It made my migraines worse.
