ICD AND DRIVING
Hi All, What's the score with driving with an ICD. I Have received conflicting advice. I believe you have to stop for 1 month after device fitting if icd fitted for precautionary reason or you had a ventricular arrhythmia without incapacity? I understand otherwise if shocked 6 month driving ban?Have

Buprenorphine
Hello, have many UK people found it easy or hard to get Buprenorphine px by GP to control pain from RLS? I have been withdrawing from Pramepexole and using only codeine however it is now not effective in controlling my pain. I have a GP appointment in a few days and was going to ask for Buprenorphine

a beautiful practice
over the years I have done yoga in many different studios but it did very little for me. Before ptsd it was the key to my happiness, and after my body was too tense and stuck in fight or flight to let the postures in. This kind of yoga is what I need. Enjoy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCJfXwm97rw

NHS Waiting Times
Hello I saw the Heart Failure Nurse January 31st she said you need a 24hr Holter so received appointment today for March 6th so just 5 weeks which I think is pretty reasonable. Just received another appointment to see H F Cardiologist on the 11th April so just 5 weeks after Holter. He is the ICD

here we go again
tonight was good until the end. For me it feels like me life is in shambles. I had a trigger and it messed me up. I have the anxiety but tonight it feels more of a depression. Mind is wandering but literally want to break down. Got told what I needed to hear and truthfulness. I guess don’t ask if you

I have almost 2 pounds away lost six stone.
I wanted to share something I have been doing and learnt through my attendance at over eaters anonymous. In OA I heard it said that if you are anorexic you dont need to overeat to gain the weight back you just have to eat normally and that it is also true that if you have gained a lot of weight through

Quick Poll: if you had to choose between not driving or not cooking what would it be? This is a heart related question!!
I will shortly be having an ICD fitted (defibrillator) to hopefully control idiopathic VT, I am currently in hospital waiting for a slot after an exercise related syncope event.So signing my consent forms and going through the risks and what not to do I can't drive for 6 months or until 6 months after

ICD,s
Hi Everyone!My partner has recently been fitted with an ICD in rather a fast manner following a call to attend A& E when this Heart Loop Recorder noted a 10 second Ventricular Standstill. He was unaware of this until his heart monitor team called but down the line he was fitted with an ICD that day.

Relationship advice
I have been with my husband for 31 years, we've had a lot of rough times along the way. When I was diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago it led to a better understanding between us but within 6 months my brother (who I was estranged from, as well as my mother) hung himself. My world was blown apart and

has anyone had madness when hypothyroid?
I went a bit mad 12 years ago thinking people were after me and ran away from home. I had a diagnosis of ME/CFS in 1992 and it got better 16 years later which is just when the madness started. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder (at 44 years of age). Since then, I have had 3 episodes where I thought

I really need to vent
Do you ever just not want to bother anyone else? I do, I'd almost would rather suffer in silence. I've been suffering with depression, anxiety, and adhd. The last year has been the worst after a seperation from my ex fiance with 2 kids involved. I self isolate myself and try to ignore everything. I
