Atrioesophageal fistula (AEF)
Heads up to those undergoing cardiac ablation for Afib…had my ablation 12/6/23. Everything went great! Been in normal rhythm ever since! No bleeding, no hematoma, no real discomfort. However I woke up to abdominal pain, pain between shoulder blades and sore throat. 3 nights post op woke up to a burning

Anticoagulation considerations for newly diagnosed AF members

I’m not medically trained, nor (as far as I know) are any of the contributors featured in the links below but what

First SI, the pain, ouch!
Hello everyone, Asking for help again on my SI journey please 🙏 Yesterday I did my first IM injection into the thigh following a video by a UK GP. It hurt much less than the one I had done in the arm at a clinic 2 weeks ago (to check no allergic reaction) so I thought great, this is the way to go

weird mouth symptoms on Sulfasalazine
Has anyone experienced anything like the following? I’ve been on Sulf for 7 weeks, max dose from 4 weeks. In the last 3 days I’ve had a sore tongue which has now settled but I’ve completely lost my sense of taste. I’ve tested and am negative for covid. I can’t think what else it could be!

Movicol/colonoscopy prep for IBS relief
Hi all, I have predominantly IBS-D but occasionally I have bouts of horrific IBS-C (I can go up to a week without any bowel movements). This is accompanied by horrific bloating/acid reflux and uncontrollable eggy gas. It can go from a few days to months. I’ve had to be signed off work before because

Pain management
Dear Friends: I am currently taking 20mg Methadone daily for RLS and will have painful hand surgery soon. Because Methadone blunts effects of opioids I am concerned about pain management. Any ideas how best to handle? Thank you.

New Diagnosis: Right Eye Normal Pressure Glaucoma.
Apparently two yrs ago at my previous eye test with photos of the back of my eye, a note was made that there seemed to be something going on with the optic nerve. I wasn't informed. At my last eye test the new optician reported the same and told me of the previous photo. She referred me to the hospital

Ectropion eye
Has anyone any advice on ectropion eye? I have glaucoma and diplopia and have been advised to have an operation to tighten the bottom eyelid. This is on my good eye, so I am rather nervous about it.

Tubular Adenomas
Hi. I wasn't sure if I should start a new post for this, or just add to my post in Oct/Nov, so I decided to do both. I hope that's okay. I had my colonoscopy two weeks ago. Results were: - internal hemorrhoids - diverticuli - polyps (I don't know size and how many until I see my dr next week
