multaq
hi guys So the dr has taken me off propafenone after being on for a few years and doing well with episodes being around 9 months apart. Started me on multaq and now episodes every 3 weeks, actually in af now for second day. My INR is 2.3 so can I wait until 7 days before going for the dreaded cardioversion

Pradaxa. Benefits and problems
Been on Pradaxa since 2016. Seems to do the job, but having started on 150mg found that bleeding from the anus was very unpleasant. The doctor reduced the dose to 110mg and that solved the problem. Taking the tablet gave me a lot of wind, but drinking plenty of water solved that. Pradaxa terrifies dentists

Newbie, tinnitus or not?
Hi Newbie here, I think I have tinnitus but have not been to the GP as I feel since I’ve hit 50 I seem to have one thing after another so don’t want to bother them again. I have this high pitched sound in I think just the left side/ear. I can only describe it as Eeeeeee. I was told by the nurse

New here
Hi everyone. I’m new here. 32 weeks pregnant and experiencing severe urethral pain for over a month. Doctors think the baby is on the nerves supplying the urethra. Cystoscopy was clear, no uti. Has anyone ever had this experience? Constant urge to pee and lightning bolts every few minutes shooting down

Brain, ears, sleep. How can I make sense of tinnitus?
Hi all! I have tinnitus that comes and goes. Ig is a buzzing sound that fluctuates in volume. I don't have it when I am well rested and sleep deeply but as soon as I have a night where my dreams are uneasy in events..not nightmares just worries, I wake up with it or when I work late and become tired

Pain in Left Eye
Hi Kind Friends, I am currently on 12.5 mg prednisone (tapering from 60 in Oct.) and weekly Actemra injections (about 4 months) Double vision from high prednisone has resolved as I have tapered. Occasionally I feel pain in my left eye, in the outer lower corner. It will hurt when I move my eye,

Lanzoprazole and side effects
Hello, I am over 2 years past Ivor Lewis oesophagectomy and have been taking Lanzoprazole 15mg once a day, then Gavison at night. I’ve found that my folate and ferritin are low , probably caused by ppi use and wonder if anyone has managed to come off them. I know they have lots of potential bad effects

Coffee-drinker?
I've had glaucoma since 1988, many ops and drops. Have noticed that my eyes get very misty from time to time, which is a pain when you are having tests to get your driving licence back etc. Thought, blood sugar? That's all I need... Nope. Turns out it's COFFEE that's affecting me! No coffee, no

Is there a difference between Barrett’s tongue and barretts oesophagus ?
I have been trying to research this since my endoscopy showed “possible Barrett’s tongue” Biopsy has been taken to rule this out which I hope is a positive sign , but does anyone have experience of this term? I understand that it is associated with hiatal hernia although my reflux issues aren’t too

Live vaccine for dengue fever
My son lives in Bali. He is in the middle of a very severe bout of dengue fever. I am going to visit him for 3 weeks in July. He has suggested I should have a vaccine before I go. I can find that it is called a " live attenuated dengue tetravalent vaccine". Even the vaccine side effects can be pretty
