What is Fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia is an invisible illness and it’s more common that you may think! It is estimated that there may be over 3 million people living with Fibromyalgia in the UK alone, between 2.9 and 4.7% of the population worldwide, despite this awareness for this debilitating condition remains low. 12th May

Please recommend slecialists on meningitis
Hi again! I’m from Russia, and I think I have a subacute or chronic meningitis, probably viral. Here doctors apparently have low expertise because they just dismiss my concerns and don’t help. I have 37.4 fever, don’t have appetite and I have a head ache and neck ache. I feel that I need to urgently

Fast heart rate
My tsh is 0.86 t417 and t3 5.00 but recently after taking 75 mgs levothyroxine about 2 hours later my heart rate goes up to 108. I am getting over shingles so is it levothyroxine or aftermath of shingles.

Post ablation weakness
I had my second heart ablation on Tuesday for bigeminy / frequent PVCs . I had a post op groin bleed and almost fainted 6 hours after the procedure - i am home now but feel extremely weak, tired and a bit dizzy when I am upright . My resting heart rate is currently 56-60! I am sure I can still feel palpitations

Care after your Cardiac Operation
3 years ago I had open heart surgery to replace my aortic valve. I had a tissue valve so no need for warfarin etc. Physically I recovered well but got little or no aftercare which is so important. My doctor at that time was little use and by the time I persuaded him to refer me for cardio rehab (at

HB romping along at 100, after 12 days....
To recap: 4 weeks ago I had an, apparently sucessful, dual ablation for flutter and A fib. Afterwards I felt pretty good with a steady HB around 60. 12 days ago my heart started racing, and after an unsucessful attempt at conversion using Flecainide as a PIP, I was told to add a daily dose of 2x100

Flecainide is my friend
Just wanted to report a good thing. After two happy years on only PIP, I had a really rough a fib event that lasted maybe 12 hours and threw in some flutter while it was trying to quit... so EP and cardiologist tag teamed me into agreeing to take daily meds.. think about ablation. I cannot multitask,

Is there always a headache when you have meningitis?
Hi I’m from Russia so sorry for my English. I think I might have meningitis, but doctors disregard my suspicions. I have pain in back of my neck and subfebrile fewer (37.4). I feel very extraordinarily unwell. But I don’t have a headache except neckpain. Is headache always there with meningitis or not

Has anyone tried Livia and does it work for endo pain?
Has anyone tried the Livia machine (mini tens machine) for the pain? I bought one a while back but am too scared to use it ! People I know with endo have recommended it but I'm scared what if it's dangerous as it's essentially electric pulses!? X

Steroid injection
I have had steroid injections now in my lumber facet joints. It was a very painful procedure for me, they advised I had a curved spine and parts of my spine are fused to my pelvis, fully on the left and partially on the right. Which is why it was so painful. I had not known about this before I had this

Immediate post operative masseter-to-facial nerve transfer.
This was in August last year. Scar obviously looks rather raw and savage. Its literally hours after surgery. The scar has since faded significantly and the response from the nerve transfer is even better than expected by the specialists at this stage.
