Is this Scabies?
Please tell me if this looks like scabies? This is right under the armpit. I have tried to crop and focus on the problem area but can share another version of this photo if it is not clear. I am morbidly obese so a lot of skin stretching is happening.

A tooth with a life of it's own!
Hi, all. I wrote in several months ago about a painful tooth. My dentist couldn't find anything wrong with it. He finally referred me to an endodontist, and he did a root canal. Found several issues. Would have been nice if that had been the end of it, but no! The pain would not go away, and I

What is Melanoma?
Melanoma begins in melanocytes – the cells that produce the pigment melanin that colours the skin, hair and eyes. Melanocytes also form moles, where melanoma often, but not always develops. These cancerous growths develop when unrepaired DNA damage to skin cells (most commonly caused by over-exposure

CABG Runners
What are people's experiences of running after CABG / bypass ops? I'm interested in everyone's stories: how soon, fast/slow, good/bad experiences, advice, etc, etc. I'm nearly 6 weeks out of CABG op, getting more mobile walking and thinking of mid-term aims (previously very active and fit). My recovery

Swollen feet following CABG
Hi - hoping someone can help. My partner had a double bypass on 25 June and is recovering at home. It seems to be going well, apart from his feet being hugely swollen. They were swollen when he left hospital (I had to buy some huge slippers just to bring him home) and they haven’t reduced in size at

post CABG 11 weeks
I was doing so well, going to rehab exercising etc All of a sudden have developed severe new pain in my lower ribs and middle of my sternum, so bad it takes my breath away! I’m still a cocktail of high strength pain relief following the surgery. Saw the surgeon well his junior last week, but he didn

JOINiNG THE DOTS - JUST A THOUGHT 🤔
November 2022 I had a stroke and was told it was caused by Atherosclerosis in the carotid artery. In the summer of 2023 I underwent various heart tests and was told I had needed angioplasty and stenting. On the day of the procedure things didn't go to plan, the stenting did not happen because of the

pre-op
I’m on waiting list for CABG. Just been called for pre-op. Had lung/carotid/echo done. How long have people waited for The Op after pre-op? Going to Wythenshawe if that helps

Cannot sleep after CABG
I've always found it difficult to sleep. Over the last few years I've only ever had 3/4 hours sleep per night. Like all insomniacs I've tried everything, from medication, supplements to CBT-i but nothing really helped. In the end I accepted it and functioned happily enough from day to day. Since

It's all becoming overwhelming
Hi Everyone,It's been 9 months since my 3x Cabg, recovery has been slow. As we came into 2024 I was being investigated for AFib and was supposed to have a loop fitted. This was put off because at the same time I was diagnosed with breast cancer and the loop couldn't be fitted because of the need for

pending CABG
I’m so inspired by the stories people have shared, and photos! This is my first post so apologies if not all relevant. Being a fit 58 year old male recently diagnosed with angina to just hearing I need a double bypass has terrified me. But the wealth of information on here as well has people’s first

11 months post quadruple CABG (25/07/23) after Nstemi heart attack (13/07/23)
Wow , what a month. Enjoyed that one 🤣👊🏻. Passed my module 2 motorbike test and got my full A license to ride unrestricted motorcycles. Passed in the Monday , picked up my 2019 Harley Davidson Sportster 883 on the Tuesday 🙌🏻. A couple of little issues meant that it went back to the dealer for some

Concerned I have PAD
Hello All, I used to be on this forum as Judge Dredd but I had to drop out due to some issues on another chat group unfortunately. Had long-term (20 plus years) hypertension and was diagnosed with CAD approx 5 years ago. Underwent a double CABG in Feb 2020 and then angioplasty with stent in Mar 2023

CTO of AV circumflex
I had CABG just over a year ago. Continued to have same symptoms as before after discharge from hospital. Angiography revealed that CABG had failed. MRI revealed CTO of AV circumflex. Now been referred to interventionist to “risk assess” procedure. This I take to mean they will likely go nothing

Cabg triple bypass 4 yrs ago after 2 Ha's, 1 month ago HA and now on 5 more drugs for helping the heart more and angina. How soon is it possible to fly after this, my thinking is might as well rest in the sun as in the rain. Fit enough in my self - doing fair bit of walking, not out of breath or any

90% of skin cancer is preventable!
1 in 4 men and 1 in 5 women will be diagnosed with skin cancer in the UK. With up to 90% of cases being preventable it seems ludicrous that the estimated annual burden on the NHS is £500 million!!!!! It’s not rocket science! It’s a no-brainer - Education is key to combatting the disease and SAVING
