Notes on post ablation/ post medication experiences
Just a couple quick notes on my experiences after ablation (December 3, 2018) and after coming off flecainide (end of March) and metoprolol (end of April) after 10 years on both: First, I was/am somewhat disappointed that coming off the meds didn’t seem to change my energy level or tiredness. I had

Suspected Endometriosis - Can anyone relate?
Hi There, Sorry for the long post - This is my Journey I've always struggled with my period, however for the past year I've been having unbearable pains, but speaking to my doctors they advised it was normal and due to the conception I was on. In March 2019 I had my implant because the pain was too

No help with pain

Meds and vitamins
I’m on metoprolol and I’m wondering can I take a multi-vitamin and fish oil along with my metoprolol? I read somewhere that fish oil lowers blood pressure so I don’t want it to drop it more than metoprolol already does TIA

Shingles with your CTD anyone?
Hi all, It's been ages since I've been able to post. Life seemed to get hit with a bomb. Things are still not right yet, but I'm finding ways to pull focus back from only the terrible. But the second you start to get the balance (or think you do), another hit happens. This time -- Shingles! I was
