Two years post mini maze (surgical ablation).
How on earth is that 2 years since being down in London taking that step into the unknown of having surgical ablation, hoping for a good result, knowing research said I had a good chance, but like everything it’s not guaranteed. Sharing my experience on here with you all each step of the way. Well

Red lumps on hands
Hi, Since I've started having issues with my joints (had two hip replacements at 25, arthritis in my lower lumbar spine & sacralratic joint etc) I've had these lumps appear for a couple of days (more sometimes) and then they go away for a bit. They really hurt to touch. They appear over night most of

RLS and surgery
As I have previously indicated, I take Belbuca buccal patch for my RLS. I am scheduled for hip replacement surgery in the near future. Recently I have seen several posts stating that any surgery will cause increased RLS . Honestly, I am now very concerned and anxious about this. Because I take Belbuca

Hi. I've been on HealthUnlocked for some time now and for some reason, my profile states I've not introduced myself. I've written a bio within my profile which summarises my journey with sJIA. I've had systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis for over fifty years and early on had periods of remission

Atrial fibrillation after steroids
Has anyone experienced atrial fibrillation after starting steroids? 4 years ago I had steroid injections in both knees, and less than 48 hours later suddenly went into persistent rapid AF, having no previous history of it. I found some Dutch research that found new atrial fibrillation was more common

thromboelastogram
Has anyone ever heard anything about a test called a "thromboelastogram"? I had unrelated knee surgery the other day. Discussed my PV with the anesthesiologist & he was surprised to hear I never had this test. He said it looks at the function of the platelets. I've never heard anyone mention this

Decision to make
Hi, I’ve been told I need to have a valve replacement and can’t make my mind up between a mechanical valve and Ross procedure. I’m 46 so if I have the Ross procedure I’ll need to get another replacement in 20 years or so. The mechanical valve looks like it will make my diet complicated , I need to reduce

Hubby felt absolutely brilliant while taking the Pred, but since he stopped them 2 days ago, his old age aches & pains have returned. Hey ho. But so far he’s not had the return of

Info on NHS weigh management tier 3
Hi all, I’ve struggled with my weight since my 30s but now it’s out of control. I’ve done WW and SW but with no success, and cannot exercise. Six years I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and have bone on bone arthritis in my right knee, however I was mobile. Now I’m six stone heavier, in constant pain

Hip replacement surgery
Has anyone had hip replacement surgery with ET jak 2 , on hydroxy and aspirin? I'm due for this in a few weeks with a pre op assessment in 2 weeks time. Surgeon has been made aware of Et situation. I just wondered if anyone has encountered any problems or issues, or whether the procedure was straight

chronic hiccups after knee surgery
Hi, Sorry if this is the wrong forum but was hoping for advice or some signposting. My father had double knee surgery a few years ago. After the operation he developed sever hiccups which drained him to the point of exhaustion and he kept vomiting. These then stopped after he was given some medication
