Breathlessness after bypass
My 86-year-old dad had a triple bypass last year. It’s not been a success unfortunately. He had anaemia and a few transfusions and fluid on the lung which has been drained several times. He’s pretty much housebound as going out brings on fits on breathlessness. With so little exercise and not much

Postponed treatment
I have only recently joined this site, and already, I am finding it quite helpful and reassuring. I was diagnosed with CLL/SLL in January and started treatment immediately because I had generalised swollen lymph nodes. I had one treatment but second treatment was postponed because my WBC, HB and platelets

Complication during ablation
Hi folks I had my third attempt at radio frequency ablation last Wednesday. (I had number one 15 yr ago as radio and cryogenic one 9 months ago) Although this reduced my AF episodes I am aging too and want to reduce the medication, instead of increasing it, which is happening at the moment. Unfortunately

Blackpearl (Jaycee) update.
Sadly, Jaycee’s had some setbacks with her transplant recovery. It would appear that her immune system is attacking the liver. She is presently jaundiced, and has had two blood transfusions as her haemoglobin levels were low. They have increased her anti-rejection medication, and have done a liver

Platelets keep disappearing. Any one else have this?
My platelet count keeps dropping like a stone and so I am very dependent on
transfusions
. If Pacritinib does help it normally helps with low
platelet
count!. I had platelet transfusion 3 days ago but yesterday the count was 4! so I was given another transfusion yesterday.

My story ... journey to a diagnosis
My problems start in January 2008 following the birth of my first child. Over the next 10 years I suffered from pain in joints, pins and needles in my feet and hands and a skin infection every 6 - 9 months. Each time the GP would give me various diagnoses and prescribe me something to get me through

Allergies?
Following on from a previous post, I'm curious! Before my OH surgery, there were various foods that I couldn't eat, processed beef, shellfish, pork and after having an angiogram discovered I was allergic to the contrast dye. But since surgery all these issues and have resolved, I have always just assumed

Good news!
The preliminary results from my 800 calorie per day diet are very promising. After 3.5 weeks my blood sugar and cholesterol have both come down significantly and I have shed 14 lbs! The hba1c test that my GP was using and alerted her on blood sugar levels is apparently not reliable in my case as I

Oxford Forum: I won’t be doing the patient experience talk
Hi So it seems that I’m not going to be asked to gve the patient experience talk for the Oxford forum. Its a pity, I’d have liked to do it, but there it is. So I can just be in the audience with my husband and son, and enjoy the evening. I’m looking forward to meeting the other people there, and

Just diagnosed - vasculitis GPA
Hi, I am so glad I've found this site as I am just at the start of my vasculitis journey and from what I read, seen and heard I will need all the help I can get. I suspect my immune system got triggered when I donated blood in August 2018 - I got really sick during the process. Nothing unusual, it happens

Can someone help me understand my results?
I have been reading posts for the past year trying to get my head around the wealth of info without much success. To give you some context, I failed to pass the prick test when I went to donate blood in Feb 2018. Blood service wanted me to contact GP as it wasn’t the first time they had refused my blood
