I had a medical crisis, I didn't die, I wonder why
Last summer I had a medical emergency. The odds were it would kill me but I survived with few life threatening consequences. The problems I had are commonly fatal for 80 year old men. There is a message in my experience which I hope to share with you in this article. It is a bit longer than most

Heavy cold
Apologies if this seems quite trivial but I have had a heavy cold for the past 2/3 days which at present is getting worse. Have tested negative for Covid so no concerns about that so I’m just wondering whether to miss my medication tomorrow or whether it won’t make any difference. I take 20mg MTX but

I got covid and went to hospital. They said I have severe heart failure. Since leaving hospital my pro bnp level has dropped significantly. I think the covid caused the heart failure. Anyone hear of that happening?

Bronchoscopy
My mom was diagnosed with pneumonia 2 weeks ago. Unfortunately 10 days of antibiotics were ineffective. She had a bronchoscopy today and while waiting for results, I was wondering if anybody else was in the same situation and what did the bronchoscopy show?

I have had tinnitus for a couple of years now. It started, I believe, with a bout of COVID. I had COVID for the 3rd time in October 2023 and the tinnitus has and is continuing to get worse. It's constant buzzing sound with clicking noises and now earache.

bulge at the front of vagina / not prolapse
Hey so during ovulation I have crazy pain, and a sensation of buzzing / vibrating that is so strong. In march the vibrations were worse than ever then one morning I woke up and there was a feeling of pressure in my vagina. I looked and it looked like there was something partially blocking the hole.

slightly anxious and just looking for moral support
Hoping you all had a good Christmas. Mine has been a bit rough as the whole family has been unwell including me with this cold/throat bug that is going around. It didn’t go to my chest this year, thankfully and I was recovering okay when I noticed my throat and ears started hurting again and my mouth

Meh running
I've finished Week 3 of the NRC plan to get to 10k. I did a fiddly-pace run on Saturday and a 6k run on Monday. The 6k in 43 minutes was fine, a there and back run with an extra mini-loop, but it felt as though there was plenty in the tank. Today I started Week 4 with a 30 minute "recovery" run - 4.5k
