Medication missed or doubled?
Last night I was super busy and went to get a glass of water to take my Apixaban and Bisoprolol at 7pm as usual. I set the water down. Then at 9.30 suddenly realised I hadn’t taken my meds.... or had I? In six months of taking them I’ve never forgotten or been confused but last night I totally couldn

WHY I HATE THE MEDICAL PROFESSION
We are ending our travel season with our annual trip to Orlando for our granddaughter's 5th birthday and our other son's annual summer bash, and I am going to try and get back to South Florida to see my former neuro because I know I can depend on him for a

I am new here. Need advice as to what things mean.
Hi all, as you can see I am new here so please bear with me. I have been having problems with my heart for the last two years. Was told it was SVT for a year than told it was AF. Now just found out via a letter that I have Paroxysmal atrial arrhythmia, probably pulmonary vein tachycardia driving atrial

So I finally went to see Dr Baranowski
Well... after 6 years of on and off pain and remission and relapse I finally went to Dr Baranowski. He is mighty expensive and I didn't expect him to diagnose me, I only wanted his letter for my useless low-IQ GP so he finally does something ! He was not able to tell me why I have pain, only told me

Thyroid and Adrenals
Hi, I have low morning cortisol and just don’t have the energy to make it through the day. I take NDT and top up with t3 but my t4 levels are always low and out of range. I think when I try to raise my NDT it potentially back fires due to low cortisol? I have had 3 SST tests done and I pass every time

AF episode
Last night we went out for dinner with friends. I usually take my Atenolol (I dropped from 50mg to 25mg 3 weeks ago) around 7.00/7.30 pm but I forgot to take it with me. Around 8.00 I felt those familiar crazy palpitations and when I checked with my Instant Heartrate app on my phone, there was a crazy

Has anyone tried a TENS machine for RLS?
A former physiotherapist recommended trying Transcutaneous Electronic Nerve Stimulation. I’ve used it before for back pain with good results. Has anyone tried it for RLS? If so, what was your experience? I borrowed a machine today from my own physio and received instructions on how to use it but haven

Abdominal pain
I have a new & different abdominal pain it started a few days ago several days on it’s still there and still just as painful. It feels like something really heavy is almost sitting on my stomach and crushing it, I’ve never experienced a pain like it before has anyone else? I regularly take buscopan and

SVT episodes in the night
Hi - I am now on 2.5mg of Bisoprolol twice a day for my atrial tachycardia. In the night I get two or three episodes of feeling very hot and clammy but then they don’t result in a fast heart rate but a tight chest. Are these episodes of SVT that are being dampened by the beta-blocker? I’m not sure of

At book signings, people queued up not to buy Claire Weekes' book which they already had but to thank her for 'saving' their lives.
Claire Weekes' international best-seller 'Self help for your nerves' published in 1962 has helped tens of millions of people to overcome anxiety, panic and depression and continues to do so. Who says so? Dr David Barlow, Professor Emeritus of Psychology and Psychiatry at Boston University: "By thinking

Shingles
I have been diagnosed with shingles. I noticed a rash on Thursday, however because it wasn’t hurting at all I didn’t think much of it which was very silly of me! I went to the doctor on yesterday as it was spreading and i was told it was shingles. I’m surprised that after now 6 days the rash is there

Shingles injection
I've finally made it down to 1/2mg every other day. My Doctor wants me to have the shingles injection. Does anyone know if this can cause an issue?? I've been reducing the pred for 2 1/2 yrs, very very slowly and haven't had a flare and don't want one at this stage. Appreciate any thoughts. many

Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Rheumatoid Arthritis
I recently saw a news item on Sky News (from 2014) which showed a trial of Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) that had proven very effective in the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis. I have looked on the web and contacted Dr Peter Tak who led the trial to see if there had been any developments - he said

Looking for Alternatives
So far my RA team have had no success with Biologics. No success yet from the latest (Truxima). I am now doing my own research into alternative pain relief. Social media is full of American Snake Oil salesmen that make claims for their own magic products. I have yet to find anything that even remotely
