is this too many?
I have just worked out that since I was prescribed Verapamil, middle of June 2023, as a Pip, I have had 12 Af episodes when I have taken the pip (which sorts me out) I know I have had shorter af episodes since being on nebivolol, not reaching a high rate - I think the highest has been 138, maybe 142

Trihexyphenidyl medication for PD
Hello, my husband with tremor dominant PD has been prescribed Trihexyphenidly (aka Artane, Trihexane and Tritane) by his neurologists to try and reduce his tremors. He is currently on Madopar and its not really helping. Does anyone have any experience with this drug? Many thanks.

Sleeping aid with Afib.
Just curious to see what you folks that have problems going to sleep have been prescribed to help and not affect your Afib. I've tried, Benadryl, valarian, clemastine, and meletonin and they either aggravate my afib or just don't work. I might need to have a doctor call in a prescription as the over

Can modafinil treat Parkinson's?
Parkinson’s disease drugs may cause daytime sleepiness. Some people experience sleep attacks, during which they suddenly feel intensely tired or even fall asleep. Because modafinil is a stimulant, it can help people feel more awake and alert. Some also experience a heightened sense of focus on the

Sleep Aid
Anyone use children’s Benadryl or Unisom to help sleep? Or another remedy? My doctor actually suggested the children’s Benadryl but it was the first time I ever saw him, he is a family med doc and may not have been aware yet that I have controlled afib…

Thought of the day - B12 paradox
Like many aspects of life that we're all trying to grapple with, good health comes from a very fine balance. There is no 'one way' to do things, but a sweet spot in the middle. And I believe it's the same with diet, in particular B12. B12 is a regulator of homocysteine. Low B12 is a driver for high

Trelstar Mixject
I received an insurance denial today for Trelstar Mixject. I was to have an Eligard shot in early December, but Dr office called the day before to reschedule for January 3rd. I was never told that they wanted to take me off Eligard, and why would they change if it is working? Mainly, I have never

A 2nd and Final Christmas Ditty (I have messaged Katrina)
A second and last offering to the alternative Christmas carols. This one is chirped along to The Calypso Carol, one if my favourites. See me lying on the bedroom floor, Palpitations I can feel once more. All kicked off by an apnoea snore, The joy called AF is to blame. Oh now carry me to A&E, By ambulance

Insomnia advice, extreme fatigue, steroid effects
I have tried all the
sleep
hygiene
stuff he recommended but I am getting quite depressed on top of everything else. I have no energy for anything. Apologies for the moan. I have tried to remain positive but feel I’m hitting a brick wall. Anxiety, sleeplessness, jittery ness, dreadful.

managing days with poor sleep.
How do you manage the days with 2, 3, 4 hours of
sleep
?
Sleep
hygiene
wisdom says make it like a normal day, to build up the need for sleep. Does this help? Do you exercise on two hours of sleep? Do you nap in the afternoon?

Ritalin (Methylphenidate)
I've saw a few post and some discussion about this, but my Oncologist suggested a low dose of Ritalin to ward off some of the fatigue and brain fog I was having from Firmagon and Zytiga. I had been reluctant to take "another pill" that comes with more side effects...so I said not for me. I know the

RLS study
just completed phase 1 of an RLS study of a wearable e-stim device for RLS. For me, redults were mixed. Worked well on Right leg which has much milder symptoms than the left. The left did not respond well to the continuous stim. When I’ve used TNS in the past, a modulated wave form was more effective

How do you know your circadian rhythm?
This week I will be starting methadone, which may be the answer for me. If effective, it would give me a chance to change my sleeping pattern from 4am to noon to something more normal. My question is this: How do I determine what my current circadian rhythm is? It might be that I actually am still

Hypothyroidism and sleep apnoea ...
