Shingles vaccine
I'm booked to have a Shingles jab shortly. Has anyone had this while on Prednisolone? Were you okay? Any side effects.

Has anyone been in so much pain that they find it distressing?
I'm having a really bad endometriosis flare up at the moment and the pain is becoming so severe that I'm getting distressed. I've taken pain meds, I've got a tens machine on, I've used aromatherapy and haven't done much today but the pain is still unbearable. Has anyone else experienced this? And if

Edoxaban switch
I have just had a phone call from the pharmacist at my GP surgery. Because recent blood test indicated that my kidneys are not functioning well, he is suggesting that I change from Apixaban to Edoxaban 30mg as this will ensure that there will not be an excess of anticoagulant in my body which could

Tens machines RSL
Back on the RSL with the talk of tens machines for pain I wonder if you could use one on your head to try and scramble the signals as when it’s bad I go under the shower as hot as pos and as forceful it helps quite a lot but staying in there all night isn’t fun always think it’s just my brain not wired

Apixaban versus clopidogrel
Prior to PAF diagnosis I was taking clopidogrel, after diagnosis this was switched to apixaban. On clopidogrel I bled more when cut and bruised much more than on apixaban, is this due to apixaban working I a different way. Just wondered if the apixaban was effective in my case.

QRS
I have had a reading on my Kardia of sinus rhythm with wide QRS I was in AF and the subsequent readings confirms AF I gave me quite a scare. Should I be worried?

Tens machine
Do any of you lovely people use TENS machines to help with their RA? Are they any good? Googling suggests you talk to a physio and perhaps try one out, but the chances of talking to a physio are rather remote at present.

TENS machine to manage period/miscarriage cramping
A little tip that has been a life changer for me and that I wanted to share to all ladies out there: I suffer from terrible period cramps that incapacitate me for a couple of days each month and that I felt I had to over-medicate myself to get to a tolerable enough level (= in a half comatose state in

Sinus arrhythmia found but is this really what I am feeling?
Hello, this may seem like an odd question, but please allow me to explain. For a couple of years now, since my hashimoto's (thyroid disease) diagnosis, I have been complaining of feeling palpitations or missed beats, skipped beats etc. I have had numerous ecg's and been in the ER on a couple of occasions

Tens machine advice
Hi! I've just got myself a tens machine and I absolutely love it. Just wondering if I can get some tips for getting the best put of it from people who have been using it longer? Any tips or tricks would be welcome 😁 I'm still figuring it all out!

Apixaban and Long Covid
Have just seen a report on BBC News about a trial being done to use Apixaban or Atorvastatin in the treatment of Long Covid (which can lead to death in 12% of patients who were admitted to hospital with Long Covid and then discharged) see this link for full details https://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news

The Value of a Good Compounding Pharmacist, a True Story
Although I generally write about supplements, sometimes supplements are simply not enough and prescription meds can be beneficial in different forms that doctors and patients are sometimes not aware of. To ignore that fact is folly on the patient's part in my opinion. I am writing this true story to
