Cholesterol and QRISK score
My GP has just completed my annual review and has referred me to the GP specialist Pharmacist to discuss statins. My cholesterol has always been well controlled with a reading of around 5 (I was told my good cholesterol was excellent). This year it has increased to 5.16 and he has also completed a QRISK

statins
Not a PMR question but I’m hoping someone here can help. Sorry it’s a long post. I have been off pred for a couple of months and all is well, fingers crossed. I was offered, because I am now 70, a health check by the local surgery and asked for ESR and CRP to be checked too. They are good but my

Wellue 24 hr monitor
I've been using the wellue 24 hour monitor for about 6 months it's a very useful device as it is small and you just place it on the left below the collar bone with ECG sticky pads after the 24 hours you upload it to a program that you install on a laptop.I recently had a reading that includes short

Experience, thus far with Lupron and Abiraterone
I am 78 years old. I was diagnosed in May 2022 with PCa after my PSA was measured at 23.79. I have no other health issues. Following the determination that PCa was still within the prostrate capsule and had not spread to any other organ, I was placed on Lupron (6 monthly IM injections for 2 years). Clinically

Dealing with an AFib episode without meds.
I was diagnosed with Paroxysmal AFib by an Energency Dept Consultant who ordered certain tests to be done in the future and sent me home with Anticoagulants. I wasn’t given any advice on how to manage an AFib episode or a follow up consultation just a letter to say my test results were OK.A year later

Getting tested after taking any supplements...
Hi there, I found this information after worrying that I have lost my mind due to GP responses, on top of all of my very B12 like symptoms, Inc. Neurological. How I felt was gradual at first and more like fatigue and gastic upsets, intermittent mild tingling, over the last few years, but last year my

Worried about low heart rate now
Ok so I posted up before because was a bit anxious about my heart rate anyway. I have just started and only completed one run on last Tuesday. I felt so wiped out the days following that. I have a doctor's phone consultation on 30th which I originally booked just to get the ok to go ahead with C25K

changed time of taking Clopidogrel.
Since starting to take Clopidogrel at night, alongside Atorvastatin, I noticed an increase in ectopic/irregular heartbeats. I decided I had endured the anxiety associated with the symptoms long enough so am now taking Clopidogrel in the morning and my Atorvastatin in the evening. The result is…..a much

Testosterone increase after injection
I recently had my 6 month dose of Camcevi 42mg and my testosterone went from 7 t0 55 rights after the injection. My PSA remained the same at 0.1 . Is this normal for my testosterone to jump 48 points. Oncologist says he is more concerned with my PSA. Also the injection of the Camcevi was in my lower

Ablation or Not?
I'm currently waiting for an ablation and have been for over 6 months. When I first developed AF I was quite badly affected by it. I would: Get out of breath just walking a short distance Keep falling asleep Found climbing stairs and carrying 'heavy' things more difficult than they should Occasionally
