A question about exercise
I have a question for you all about exercise. I have read a lot of posts on the topic, and many people write that they exercise a lot. Today, someone wrote about doing cardio, yoga, and cycling while being on 9 mg of prednisone. I am wondering about this, as I am never in a condition to do that. I

Echocardiogram shows

disease
and mild pulmonary hypertension. In summary, doctors have not identified the cause of her symptoms and are unsure how to treat her. What is your analysis, diagnosis, and recommendation?

Can azathioprine cause chest pains?
Hi, I have been on azathioprine tablets mostly 75mg to 100mg for my Lupus for approximately 20 years. Have been experiencing chest pains on my left side especially after excretion. I had various tests and scans but they are all negative. I had Covid last September and had to stop taking the azathioprine

Hi I just wanted to tell everyone that you can finally be free of polymyalgia.I was diagnosed in 2020 and it was horrendous.

Return of the Duck. The Saga Continues.......
Good morning guys and gals.Hope everyone is as well as they can be.

Settle down with a strong drink of choice,

Palpitations when poorly
I'm on bisoprolol 1.25 once a day for skipped beats. I have had two heart surgeries one fallot tetralogy one for pulmonary valve replacement. Does anyone experience more skipped beats or flutters when they have a cold etc?

Post ablation holter monitor results
Hi everyone, just had a letter following a 24 hour holter monitor I had on the 10th of August, this was 4 months post PVI ablation.

... And the beat goes on
12 months ago today I woke up in unfamiliar surroundings, a hospital bed. The day had arrived, I was having bypass surgery. In all honesty I can't say I was nervous the only thought in my mind was the ultrasound I was having on my legs, the surgeon was concerned about the viability of my legs veins,
