How my AF started...
Question for all the very knowledgeable people on here: Background: I had a Sleeve Gastrectomy (weight loss surgery) in 2012. Extremely successful up until 3 years ago when I began to gain weight but I wasn’t eating more. Then I started having to force myself to be sick after eating just a tiny bit

Electrophysiology For Ectopic Beat Correction
Being referred from one Cardiologist to another Cardiologistfor an Electrophysiology Study this is to determine if it is possible for an Ablation to correct my Ectopic Heart Beats. I have 1000s in a 24 hour period and Cardiologist suspects they are causing my Heart not to fill completely prior to pumping

More women with Breast Implant Illness
As breast implants affect the endocrine system I am horrified at the number of women whom are suffering with this illness. At the moment the Breast Implant Illness and Healing Support Group has over 1700 women and this number is increasing on a daily basis. Also, after listening to a Dr whom is researching

Latest Vitamin and Thyroid results after increased dose Tirosint
Hello everyone, Thanks again for your amazing support. As advised I requested Vitamins & Thyroid tests as well as Coeliac test. The Doctor said Coeliac test not necessary if I don’t have tummy problems. She said these results are all good except the Vitamin D3 and said I need to double my dose.

Cancelled Surgery
I have been waiting for a triple CABG since November. I have been given 4 dates for surgery and each has been cancelled, due to no ITU beds, or no staff. I have a date for tomorrow but have been told to stay at home until I get the green light from the hospital. This constant juggling with pre-op medication

PMR and Lyme disease ?
Hello, do you have any idea of a correlation between PMR and Lyme disease? Following tick bites, can it cause PMR ? Doctors do not give any answers and my GP said no reason known what causes PMR.

Possible Cellulitis
Hello, Question for everyone. I’m almost positive I have cellulitis in my inner thigh area where my leg meets my pelvic area (almost vaginal area). I noticed this morning it felt hot and tender to the touch but really didn’t think much else of it. I see my OB tomorrow (2 weeks post partum), so I went

Ongoing throat discomfort worse with exercise
Hi everyone I had CABG last July and one of my presenting symptoms was throat discomfort which became worse when I exercised. The problem which is really bugging me is that the discomfort is continuing. My GP put me on very strong antacids which didn’t help. I am probably in total denial but I wondered

Breast implants
Good Morning All, I am wondering how many people suffering with thyroid problems/ME/Fibromyalgia and any other disorders associated with the immune system, have breast implants for whatever reason?

More evidence of thyroid illness and Lyme Disease connection
It would be ridiculous to state that thyroid illness is always caused by Lyme Disease and/or other chronic infections, but the evidence mounts continuously that there is often a link. All of the patients I've met who are being treated for Lyme and other chronic infections need thyroid replacement to
