How accurate is a visual field test?
Hello I am new to this site but have been a member of Health Unlocked for some time. I have had glaucoma in both eyes for approximately 11 years and was well controlled until about 3.5 years ago when I developed uveitis in my left eye (my worse eye for glaucoma). It was treated as an acute emergency

Bursitis of toes & Steroid Injection
I've had pain from between the second & third toe since last May. It hurts to stand & walk especially barefoot or in shoes. I tend to wear trainers when I can as the base is soft & spongy. I had surgery Oct 22 for severe arthritis in the large toe & at first I feared it had spread. Two trips to GP (

Prednisolone and surgery
Hi everyone, I've been reading all the recent posts about problems reducing prednisolone with interest. When I was diagnosed in September 2023 (non cranial GCA) I naively expected my steroid reducing timetable, given to me on discharge, would be exactly as it was on the sheet. I'm now down to 8mg per

Edoxaban and dreams and nightmares
Hi all, Hope you all have a great Easter ... plenty of chocolate and bunnies ..... or even warm, sunny, dry weather ! Have any of you who take Edoxaban experienced the worst most sleep destroying nightmares of a violent topic ? Or even any nondescript dreams or nightmares. I did put a post on here

Mechanical valve
Thanks for your replies! You are correct, I think I got my terminology wrong, sorry. I will have a mechanical valve not a biological valve, thus the need for warfarin. I was also hoping to use the self testing kit for warfarin, as we spend much time in Africa, which could be rather tricky. Good to

Recent Radical Surgery
Hi All, diagnosed after biopsy in December 2023 with 2 hits, one was a Gleason 4+3 and one was a Gleason 4+4. Just had the Radical Davinci Robotic Prostatectomy in March and my pathology seemed all good. Pre surgery PSMA scan and MRI contrast both showed all gland contained 5 lymph nodes were taken

sympathetic ears…
Sometimes I think no one else gets it :( I was lucky to get surgery on Wednesday. This is my third surgery but I really was so so poorly afterwards. I’m feeling lonely, tired, emotional and in pain. I hate people worrying about me so I’ve kept it quiet ish, hardly anyone knows and now I feel useless

Synthetic mytral valve
Hello, Soon I will have mytral valve replacement. I'm 56 female and lead a very active life. My concern is not so much getting back to fitness after surgery but more how much warfarin really affects day to day life. Also I was wondering, are there still no other alternatives to taking warfarin when

Colds and epilepsy
My husband has passed on his cold to me. I started with a tickly cough, now nose is bunged up, coughing is rattly, more so on the right side and head feels dizzy constantly. Ears also feel blocked. Im worried incase it triggers a seizure, as epilepsy nurse told me that viruses can trigger seizures. In

"I Walked Out One Summer's Morning"
is the working title of my book. Over recent years many people have said I should write up my experience which have varied from excellent to absolutely horrendous. My health journey started just over seven years ago when I had my first angina attack which lead to a quadruple bypass the following year

Workplace Accommodations
Hi all - my endo has caused me a few abscesses from work since my surgery. I’m lucky that my work are so understanding with it and they want to help me manage as best I can. I am due to have a meeting next week to see how they can help and what if any accommodations they can put in place for me. I

8 months post Nstemi and quadruple CABG
it’s not all been a linear progress but it has been pretty darn good. Back ggedt issue I’ve had is with my statins. I thought it was the Bisoprolol (1.25mg ) and ramipril (half a 1.25mg tablet) that was making me dizzy , fatigued and zombie like every afternoon to early evening. Plus I had cognitive

Do Drs get a bonus for prescribing certain drugs ?
Does anybody know if Gps get a hand out for prescribing statins ? There has been a lot of controversy in regard to this topic. Late yesterday afternoon I had a call from my surgery. It was a Dr I had never heard of or had I spoken to her before. She was suggesting I were put on statins! I asked for

Anticoagulants
Just a quick question , I just realised my surgery is closed today (silly me) and I can’t pick up my latest prescription until Tuesday . I will run out of my anticoagulant Edoxaban tonight so I won’t be able to take any for the next 3 days . I haven’t had an AF episode for the last 4 months and they

Journey of pain, cyst and Endometriosis

Dr Cameron Martin Edinburgh Spire - anyone had surgery with Dr Martin?
Hi I’m looking into seeing Dr Cameron Martin at Edinburgh spire for my first laparoscopy and wondered if anyone has any reviews they can share with me to help me make my decision. He seems nice from our initial chat via email but I need to make the right decision as surgery is a big deal for me. Thanks

worried in France
Good evening everyone. wishing everyone a peaceful Easter. I am in need of a little advice from you lovely people. Since last Friday, I have been experiencing irregular heartbeats and combined with occasional AF. At least I presume that’s what it is, very fast beats. I don’t really know how long I should

Depressed & Exhausted
Hi, I'm new to this so please pardon any errors. I had a botched surgery on June 2019, Revision surgery on October 2019 and my 3rd on June 2021. I now have permanent neuropathy and a few other things. Since than, I've been incredibly depressed and always feel alone. I used to xtrain 28 miles per week
