Update on Oxycodone
Hello all my restless friends. I said I would let you know how I fared with starting oxycodone. I have now been taking 5 mg. Longtec (oxycodone) for two weeks. This tablet is slow release over 12 hours. For the first few days I played about with the time of taking and have now settled on 8.00 p.m

Why beta-blockers for portal hypertension, rather than blood pressure reducing drugs?
Hi My Mum has recently been diagnosed with NAFLD and stage 1 cirrhosis and she has been prescribed beta-blockers. We were just wondering why beta blockers have been prescribed rather than the usual blood pressure reducing drugs? Does anybody know why this is? Not saying it's wrong, just wondering

Any advice on oedema of the feet in the heat?
Hi all, I have mild CKD with very few symptoms (stage 3). This current heatwave in the U.K. is playing merry hell with my feet though. My husband says I look like a hobbit :-) my feet are fine when I wake up but by the time I go to bed they are huge and very painful (and in bad days my ankles too). I'm

Initially when first diagnosed with secondary polycythemia I had to have weekly then fortnightly venesections but then got less and less until I didn't need one

Hepatic Encepalopathy medications (Lactulose and Rifamixin OR L-ornithine and L-aspartate)
Which medication would be better to treat HE. The doctor is giving my mom L-ornithine and L-aspartate. My mom has HE and is suffering from delusions which are getting worse. I told my sister that Lactulose is a common medication to treat HE as I have read on the internet and told her to ask the doctor

Thiazide Diuretics
Hello. I discovered I have high blood pressure in March this year. I tried Ramipril 2.5mg but I noticed tinnitus developing, plus it wasn’t effective so I changed to amlodipine 5mg, not effective, increased dose to 10mg, ankles started swelling plus palpitations, plus not hugely effective, so switched

RLS Relief
There's one medication I have taken that works 100% and has never failed...Valium. I was on the smallest dose and had zero problems. I have it so severe, I'm up till 3 am after going to bed at 10 PM, doing squats and running up and down the stairs trying to fatigue my muscles. I've cried and thought

Lipomas
Random question: Has anyone had a lot of lipomas post diagnosis of ITP or post splenectomy? I have recently started getting what I thought were swollen lymph nodes on my chest, shoulders and arms, but my GP seems to think they are lipomas. Just wondering if any one else had this happen.
