GFR question
Hi everyone, I'm a 59 year old male. I have high blood pressure and diabetes. A few years ago my GP said that I was dehydrated and need to drink more water. Didn't look at my test results other than to keep taking my meds for high blood pressure and diabetes. Fast forward to around 6 months ago I

Possible over treatment with Levothyroxine
Hi everyone, I’m new to the site. It was suggested that I make a post following a comment I made replying to another post as I may benefit from some guidance on my current treatment. I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid 9 years ago. I have been treated with Levothyroxine throughout. Since 2020

24hr Holter
Hi, Recently started back on Bisoprolol for palpitations/PVCs after 7yrs off. I'm on low dose, 1.25mg but they've really calmed down what were pretty uncomfortable symptoms (3 A&E visits in one weekend!) Anyhow, have a holter monitor booked for next week and not sure whether to stop the Bisoprolol or

Previous Heart attack/stent
2016 when my life changed. I look back now and see that my life in a wierd form changed for the better following my heart attack at the age of 55. Since having the stent placed I realised how restricted my body had been and the relief this procedure had given me. I attended rehabilitation classes for

Just had My Monthly Injection of Firmagon Monthly Labs PSA is Up <0.06 to 0.09
That’s pretty modest. I’m assuming I will wait till next month to see if it goes down. Kind of stressed with this new diverticulitis and blood bowel thing AND Moving. Got results of psa after I saw My Medical Oncologist so haven’t discussed modest jump. Even with bleeding from rectum the gastroenterologist

The Epidemiology of Parkinson's Disease
I live in the Red River Valley - a neurodegenerative disease hot spot. This isn't where I was poisoned, it's where we landed after I got sick. I had to be transferred by ambulance to a different hospital system in May - there are specially trained teams for patients with ALS due to respiratory failure

Excessive Nasal Mucous
I have been treated for underactive thyroid for around 30 years. The past decade I keep experiencing what is like very severe cold symptoms on a regular basis. My body produces excess amounts of thick green slimy sticky mucous, my sinuses get blocked, I have endless nasal drip/cough and it makes me really

Coming home
So after 4.5 years in Nigeria and an APS diagnosis in summer 2020 I’m coming back to the U.K. In many ways I’m looking forward to it and I know my consultants - all 3 of them - will be much more comfortable with me being near better medical care (APS, warfarin and epilepsy are not a good combination

Reducing cholesterol
I’ve been told that because of the stricter diagnostic parameters the NHS now uses for assessing cholesterol levels in the blood, I have very slightly raised cholesterol. I’ve been told I can have statins, which I agreed to take, with much regret, because they are powerful drugs and I’m already taking

Switching from Disopyramide to Bisoprolol - any advice?
Hi, I have been taking Disopyramide (Rhythmodan Retard 250mg) for AF, but have been unable to find any pharmacists with stock for a while now. So the Cardiac Nurse at my Doctor's Surgery has switched me to Bisoprolol. I am about to switch over from the last of my Disopyramide, and start with the Bisoprolol

Opioids can cause adrenal insufficiency
Hi everyone, It appears that opioids can cause adrenal insufficiency. This is something I have not seen mentioned here. Does anyone know about this? Here are a few articles. I think this has relevance to anyone trying to taper through the lower doses of pred if they are taking opioids for pain or any

‘Normal’ results but feeling terrible
Hi, I have an underactive thyroid (35f) and was diagnosed 5 years ago. I think my Dad (60m) does too, in April 2021 I persuaded him to get a medichecks test done. I have attached a screenshot of those results. I have persuaded him to get another medichecks done to see if his results are different. He

I got some doubts about the know-how of my oncologist
I met with my oncologist last Friday and either I am confused or she is. I am open for both scenario. :) This post is sort of a follow-up on another I did back in August: https://healthunlocked.com/advanced-prostate-cancer/posts/149892314/need-help-in-understanding-psa-level-recurrence-after-treatment

Bisoprolol
The only problem I ve encountered is with the specific AF tablet dihydrochloride etc. I have never encountered a problem with 10mg Bisoprolol. I m on Entresto Digoxin spironolactone apixaban and a number of others.

Prostate cancer but normal PSA?
HI All. I had my first ever PSA at the age of 62 and it came in at over 26. I took a repeat and it came in at 25, then a week later I took another and it was 29. I had a biopsy that came back positive (cancer in 11 of 12 samples) and even though both my CT and bone. However, they indicated that since

Liver cancer
Hi Everyone Quick update ..... Some of you may remember me posting a few times about my partner Nick who has cirrhosis. He had an MRI scan a couple of weeks ago because they had seen lesion on his left lobe on an ultrasound scan. This lesion it turns out is cancer. Stage 1 so very early but still

Collapse then AF
Dad has mixed dementia and is 90 in May. He lives alone with my support. He has a history of collapse dating back to the 1990's but only three in all that time. He had a pacemaker in 2017 due to another collapse and found to have some heart block. A year later he had another and this is when we noticed
