Info on MIL
Hi, I haven't commented for quite a while as we are very busy looking after family with illnesses. MIL is at the moment in hospital, she was very confused and doing some bizarre things. Mil has decompensated Cirrhosis of the liver, non alcoholic. She had ascites in 2015 and had 12 litres fluid drained

Need your help

Baby or health? Petrified of coming off medication to conceive.
Since last year my pcos has been managed really well with a combo of Yasmin pill/ spironolactone 75mg and diet. I’m nearly 35 and my consultant had ‘the talk’ with me today about how I need to get a move on if I want to try to conceive. She advised coming off the Yasmin and spironolactone and switching

Side effects of diuretics Part 2
Thank you for the helpful answers to my query of yesterday. I went to see the GP this morning. She said she'd never heard of extreme fatigue being a side effect of Furosemide. I showed her the leaflet which does indicate that 'tiredness, fever or generally feeling unwell' is one of the less common side

Spironolactone
I have had AF since 2013. I am on Apixaban (2x 5mg), Bisoprolol 10mg, Furosemide 20mg, Digoxin 62.5, Ranitidine (2 x 150 mg) and Spironolactone 25mg. I had been having abdominal/chest pains feeling exhausted so have an Angiogram booked in for June as Heart Failure seems to be on the cards. Plus

Doctor unwilling to prescribe combined Pill
Hi, my daughter saw her doctor today to discuss the consultants recommendations and while it was agreed she could now take Metformin and Spironolactone the doctor refused to prescribe the combined pill because of her BMI level. He said that as it was over 30 he was not allowed to give it. He said she

Heart/kidneys
Happy Easter everyone. My husband is 63 & has at least moderate heart failure. He's recently been put on spironolactone (low doseage) & he's having regular blood tests for potassium & his kidneys. The tests are regularly showing readings of serum creatinine level (XE2q5) of between 106 to 117 umol/L.

What should I expect?
Hi all, I am new to this forum. I had a totally shock diagnosis of Atrial Fibrillation and severe heart failure last August. I am only 52 years old. Atrial Fibrillation still persists but heart failure is improving. I think I have been going in and out of AF for years and not known. I have never had

Spironolactone
Has anyone had any problems with raised potassium levels due to spironolactone? My husband has heart failure & after being on spironolactone for 3 months over a year ago, he was taken off it due to high potassium levels. They're now trying it again, he's been on 1/2 tablet since January with the view

Spironolactone - Acute Kidney Damage.
Hi everyone, first post here. I was recently diagnosed with Cirrhosis after being admitted to hospital with Alcholic Hepatitis. Further tests showed several grade 1 oesophogal varices, enlarged spleen and a gunked up gallbladder. The hospital were great. I was in for 2 weeks while they sorted me out

Breathlessness
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has had the same problems as my. I had a cardiac arrest back in June 2016, I mean, I actually died with it for so many minutes, causing more issues (blood not getting to major organs). Anyway the staff did tremendous work on me & I survived with the aid of a Pacemaker

New post from a New Member, Any Advice Please?
Hi, just been diagnosed in the last few weeks with liver cirrhosis. Long story, but caught food poisoning on a diving holiday and it refused to clear up. After about 6 weeks the doctor did a blood test and initially thought I had liver cancer. Went into hospital and they couldn’t find any evidence

As cites again
I have battled with ascites since diagnosis and was controlling with spirolactone and furosemide. However one doctor will take me off em because of kidney damage the next one along will put me back on them. If I don’t take spirolactone I fill with fluid within the week and need draining which is a pain
