TENS machines
My husband has RA and suffers from frequent joint pain in his knees, back and sometimes hips. I've heard that tens type machines can be useful to relieve this pain and wondered if anyone had any success with such treatment or has any recommendations for the kind of thing that might be effective? Any

Shingles after the Pfizer vaccine?
Has anyone developed shingles after getting the Covid 19 vaccine? I had the Pfizer shot in March and I came down with shingles in September. I started researching and there are some studies showing that shingles could be a side effect. Just curious if anyone else has had shingles in the last 6 months

Vagal Nerve stimulation
Has anyone explored ways of stimulating the vagal nerve as a way of preventing AF as seems to be responsible for possibly the majority of Afib triggers? Wouldn't it be great if just like a pacemaker we could have a vagal nerve implant to give it a jolt when it's thinking of doing it's dirty work!!!

Elevated heart rate.
Morning all. I have noticed my heart rate running quite fast even during the night. This is a new one for me. I was diagnosed a fib in Jan and take Verapimil and Apixaban. My question is should I try and talk to my gp (if I can) or battle on. Waiting for CV but now just getting a call in Oct. Many thanks

Got diarrhea right away with Rinvoq & then shingles, 8 weeks in. Rheumy & RPh can’t decide if I should go back on Rinvoq after shingles clear or change to biologic drug. What to do?

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force strikes again - Aspirin
The USPSTF never did recommend aspirin for PCa, of course, but they did for the prevention of colorectal cancer, in 2016. They are reversing that. Men with PCa have a greater risk for heart disease. Mark Moyad coined the expression “Heart healthy is prostate healthy.”, although he may not have been

Fast heartrate not a symptom of being undermedicated.
Just spoke to doctor and he says if your undermedicated, it will cause bradycardia NOT tachycardia and having read replies to my previous posts, this appears to be untrue. I'm just so frustrated and angry having to deal with doctors who don't know what they're talking about, God help us all!!!

I can’t shake the feeling it’s all over.
I honestly feel like it’s all over. I’m trying to be positive and keep going for test day on Monday but I’ve got absolutely no symptoms at all. In fact I feel energetic and great. I was bloated but that happened when I started the meds and even that’s gone down now too. If it wasn’t for the puncture

Alternatives to pills
Has anyone any suggestions to smooth pain of polyarthritis without so many pain killers? I use heat bags and I've tried a Tens machine but that didn't help much. Exercise is agony!

Pain relief without more opioids
Does anyone have any suggestions for pain relief without more opioids? I was thinking of getting a TENs machine. Can you use pads on abdomen and back?

Checking pulse daily hugely beneficial
When my GP diagnosed AFib I was given Bisopropol 😔 swiftly changed to Nebivolol and Apixaban and for weeks I just felt rotten most of the time. I then subscribed to technology which gave me unlimited reports on what my heart was up to at any time of the day or night. Reports were consistently showing
