heart racing is this anxiety?
I’m 25 and early hours of this morning experienced a spell of feeling like my heart was racing. It’s comes and goes. No sweating or other symptoms. Could this be anxiety? I am really scared about upcoming surgery this Wednesday and to make matters worse my parter is away for 2 nights. I don’t do well

Any body else like me?
Please excuse the long post, I’m hoping to pick you lovely ladies brains 💗. I was diagnosed in feb 2020 - hgs stage 3. Surgery and the usual chemo followed and then avastin for maintenance. In October ‘22 my ca125 rose gradually and a scan showed 3 lymph nodes that my oncologist didn’t think were anything

State of the NHS
I’m posting this just to highlight the difficulties the NHS is in at the moment, I’m a 75 year old asthmaric and have had a cold and chesty cough for nearly 3 weeks. I finally decided this wasn’t going to clear up by itself. There was no way I was going to get an appointment with my GP any time soon.

Dental advice 7 weeks post AVR
Hi all, I’m 7 weeks post surgery after AVR, and feel I’m doing well so far. Unfortunately I managed to brake a tooth last night and am worried it might cause some sort of infection that could affect the new valve/heart. I’m going to contact the dentist first thing Monday morning to try and get an appointment

upcoming cataract surgery
Any advice? do I take prednisone after surgery since I will be fasting overnight? How long do I have to wait until I can bend over? Does it take longer to heal with prednisone? I'm on 3 mg.

medConfidential Bulletin , 8th December 2023
Another bulletin that should be required reading for anyone concerned about who has access to any of their health data held by the NHS in England. I'm not sure if any of this is relevant to Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland. It talks about, among other things, the National Data Opt-Out. I opted out

Pain everywhere.
I've been 10+ yrs searching for answers. I had some bladder problems in 2013. Doctors did surgery. I almost died. Apparently they told me my blood vessels looked funny. They didn't know if they "knicked " me or what but I lost 8 pints of blood very quickly. They barely got me transfusion in time. I chalked

Post Operative Steroids
I am now home after having a new knee fitted. They kept me in an extra night due to being in surgery much longer than anticipated and low sodium levels, so saline drip overnight. I am guessing I was given more anaesthesia than planned, I am finding that I am more tired than I've ever felt. I can

Waiting PMR Diagnosis
Started in September 2023 with stiff hips and buttocks, just woke up like that. Don't know if it was coincidence but this was 3 day's after a flu jab! Gradually over the next few weeks, hip's became stiffer, burning type pain at times down to the knees. Putting on lower half clothes and shoes became

Help- my 18 year old just diagnosed with grade 4
My oldest, my 18 year son was complaining about headaches for a week. We took him to doctor on Saturday and by the evening we had an MRI of large brain lesions causing pressure in his cerebellum and back of his skull. We were shocked and floored. Just tried to keep it together until we had more conclusive

Extremely bad acid heartburn
hi, On here about my mum again. She is suffering really bad with acid reflux. She hasn’t had chemo for 4 weeks but they did attempt debulking surgery which didn’t work. So we are not sure if it’s something to do with the blood thinners or she’s worried it is the cancer. has anyone else suffered

Yippee! No surgery!
Well, not yet anyway. The gall bladder surgeon scheduled me for a gastric emptying test 2 days ago, and I sat down with him this morning to go over the results. Of course I failed it, but my gall bladder has been fine for several weeks now so we're putting surgery on hold. I'm to call him immediately

Bowell prolapse
I would like some advice about a prolapsed bowell. I have been advised by my Doctor that I could have keyhole surgery to correct it. Has anyone else had this surgery and if so what was their experience.?

Help with getting a diagnosis
Hi all, I have been struggling for years now with symptoms of hypothyroidism. It’s all really come on over the last couple of years. My weight is out of control, I’m freezing all the time, my hair is dry and brittle, plus many other textbook underactive thyroid symptoms. I’ve been to the doctors

max inhaler dose?
Hi everyone. I saw the hospital respiratory team about a month ago, who said that it is ok to take 5 puffs rather than the suggested max 4 puffs Fostair 200/6, as a kind of last resort before prednisolone. I’ve taken a lot of steroids this year and am trying to reduce the number of courses. However,

Open heart surgery and home!
So I wanted to say a big Thankyou to everyone who gave advice or has written posts in the past who have given advice on going through open heart surgery. Every single date I’ve had for surgery has been affected by the doctors strike and so I had begun to loose hope, when 12pm last Tuesday St Bart’s called
