How long do you wait for it to happen? Do you need

So in 2019 I had a stent after HA. Now four years later getting tightness cross chest, can still walk up 3 steps of stairs ok. Once I stop out walking it settles down again. I’m also asthmatic. My question is has any had a second stent that resolved this. I take glycerin spray once a month. thanks

Good reason to celebrate today as it’s two years to the day that my life was saved by those wonderful NHS folks. Suffered a Stemi / widow maker, but 4 stents got me up and running again. Luckily I live only 8 minutes away from the Leicester Glenfield Heart Unit and an ambulance was in the area. From

After a lot of research and advice, these are what I went with 😁Brooks Levitate 👟 I tried so many different styles today.. Trail's just didn't feel right 🤔 Think I'm to used to my brook's glycerine But these have a bit of a lower heel drop.. which hopefully helps alleviate my ball of the foot pain

I took tylenol twice in hospital without thinking that maybe there's polyethylene glycol in it. Never take these at home. I was walking before but have pain in one eye, wasn't able to walk after tylenol and the second time my leg was blue like a corpse. They check for a pulse to be sure.

Hi, new here & have read many threads - super helpful, so thank you to all that take the time to reply. My 3yr old boy is withholding after being constipated a few weeks ago. The constipation caused a haemorrhoid so I guess that is now causing pain for him :( Thinking back, prior to the consitpation

I'm determined not to let IBS-D stop me from living an active lifestyle. I'm a married mom of 3 and also very social however most people around me don't know about my daily struggle with IBS-D. I'm not looking to share this information either. If I'm going anywhere with friends or family, I generally

Hi I have recently received a diagnosis of idiopathic constipation & my rectum does not empty fully. know it will take time, patience, self help (diet,CBT), trial & error to get better but I have never felt so medically alone. My gastro put me on glycerin suppositories, discharged me back to my GP

With Parkinson’s, it’s common for the skin on your face to become very oily, especially on your forehead and on the sides of your nose (this is known as seborrhea).
