Adult Degenerative Scoliosis
I am going to have an investigative procedure at the beginning of December and if that is proved to be the problem at another date they will
block
the
nerve
endings. Sorry bit hazy about the last bit as I was totally thrown to be told that someone at long last might be able to help me.

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??
Hi, all — not sure this is the right place to be, since it doesn’t really appear that I have AFib. 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 up going

Vagal Nerve Stimulation (tVNS) Research Summary
Some definitions for clarity. Neuromodulation, stimulating nerves (usually with electricity) to change (hopefully improve) or control their function. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a form of neuromodulation. Neuromodulation can be invasive, requiring surgery (like DBS) or noninvasive which provides

ANY ADVICE
Hi everyone I have been AF free for nearly a year now. I have been taking 75 mg flecainide morning and night half of 125mg Bisoprolol in the morning, Apixaban and 20 mg Tamoxifen. Everything has been great. However in the past week I wake up every morning and my lips are stinging and cracked and

Apixaban skin reaction?
I’m having the most awful burning, itchy, inflamed skin on my face that’s come on suddenly over the past couple of days. Im wondering if it’s related to the Apixaban that I’m on. Has anyone else had such a reaction? I have tried an otc antihistamine to no avail so if anyone knows a remedy I’d love

New way to trigger an episode apparently
So I've been successful in remaining episode free since I had that short VT episode a bit over 2 weeks ago now. Last night I was using a deep tissue massager, and I pressed somewhat harder on a sore spot near bottom left back, I clearly felt my heart bump into AF. I then had AF (and not super fast

Runners brain
Anyone else find themselves composing a post to put on here while they're running? Something that seems hilarious/fascinating/insightful while you're thinking of it, but later on (like those brilliant ideas you have at 3am) turns out to be drivel? No? Just me then. Anyway, I did my 28 minutes tonight

Suspect if my feelings are the symptoms of STIs.
I had unprotected sex with a stranger 10 tens ago. Now I feel burning sensation on my penis and anal after pooing and peeing. Is this feeling related to my sexual behaviors? Is it still too early to go and get tested of STD(I)?

I have asked for advice on this forum before but my bladder problems are causing distress. Because I cannot take Solifenacin though it worked well as far as the constant need to pee. It caused me terrible constipation which even with laxitives was difficult. Now my urethra is sore and some pain.

Off meds because of Shingles, but maybe answers to other concerns…..
So about 18 months ago I started feeling nauseous occasionally. Moved taking my mtx tablets to the evening, and upped folic acid from 1 a week to 3, then 5. Not making much difference so moved to mtx injections. Still feeling nauseous but RA team reluctant to pin on Mtx as nauseous is generally after

Tens machine
does anyone have any relief from pain with a tens machine. I’m in severe pain as soon as I stand or walk, my fractures from osteoporosis are old, or I thought the pain went when they healed?

Curing RLS not just treating the symptoms

Metoprolol
I have a CT angiogram tomorrow at 0830 and have been given two tablets of Metoprolol (50mg) to take 12 hrs and then 2hrs before the procedure. This is apparently to slow the heart down (to below 60bpm). I rang the hospital and told them that I already take Sotalol and my heart rate is generally slow

Shingles vaccine
Shingles vaccination. I’ve been offered this vaccination but as this is a live vaccine, is it a wise move ?
