Ablation and travel
Hello everyone! Just found this site as a lay awake. (Not sleeping well lately). I’m having an ablation under general anesthesia this Wednesday. I’d planned to do it after a planned trip to the Grand Canyon but I had another episode of feeling like I would black out so the doctor moved it up sooner.

AF meds and Valium
Hi all, don't remember asking this first because I'm super worry but, please, anybody has been prescribed Valium when on Digoxin, Flecainide, Sotalol? It appears to relax me and have better sleep, and I only have it some time. I don't think it affects me as it does to others. The Cardiologist prescribed

Hmm... So in 2/20 my RO says I'm "cured", however, my MO butts in and declares...not so fast Bozo!!
After HDR Brachy and 25 days of IMRT (2019), RO does a brief DRE, looks me in the eye and states " you are not going to die from APC"! GREAT!! No more Lupron and I can taper off Z and P!! Well, MO reminds me that I still meet 2/3 of the Stampede Trial criteria (G9 and PSA>20. My high was 28) and he

Ramipril 2.5mg
I've been taking these for just over a week now as felodipine didn't suit. I've developed stomach cramps and wondered if it's connected to ramipril. Doctor s surgery is not available so cannot ask any questions

Fail Lumbar Microdiscectomy
Has any else had a failed Microdiscectomy? I had L5 & L4 shaved down in May 2019 and since then the pain has gradually gotten worse. The pain never left completely but did get much better. My recent MRI is showing servere compression on the nerve again from both discs, my specialist is now sending me

Change in PSA testing method
Previous testing was centaur chemilumisometric immunoassay with PSA of 0.31. Fifteen weeks later, the new method is ECLIA with PSA of 0.63. I'm been tracking the failure of RP and IMRT with rising PSA and plan to independently schedule PSMA in Europe. My UO has me waiting, doing nothing. What does

Understanding Portal Hypertension
Please can someone explain to me (in a really simple way), what Portal Hypertension is, what are the symptoms and why would I not be informed I have it (by Liver Consultant) when my Diabetic Consultant knows and, once again, nobody has considered it prudent to inform me. Dr Google does not explain

Should I take BP meds?
My blood pressure puzzles me, I'd be grateful for advice. I brought my home monitor into the room I was sitting in and took my bp about half an hour later, it was 158/85. I didn't panic, did about a minute of deep breaths then took it again 3 times, readings were 120/72 then 116/70 and finally 114/69

Indapamide 2.5mg tablets
Hi I am new to this forum. I have been told to start taking Indapamide 2.5mg tablets but am also on Amlodipine 10mg daily. I am scared of the side effects I have read about though for Indapamide and that I have to take them probably forever. My BP has increased recently for some unknown reason whilst

Trimodal Therapy
G9, PSA13 no met. Tolerating Zoladex ok. Start IMRT July to include pelvis and lymph nodes. Followed by LD brachy based on confirmatory TRUS. I can see no advantage to SBRT over IMRT? Clinic does not do MRI !! (Canada healthcare system). I will get privately and provide for OAR boundary definition. Dr

Looking for help to understand latest blood results please
I’d really appreciate help with b/t results please. It was a fasting test @ 8.30 a.m, no Levo since previous morning . No supplements for 1 month before test. I would like to start any supplements needed but am going to order a private fingerprick test to check T3. Should I wait until I’ve done T3

Rising PSA post IMRT and ADT
It's my understanding that an increase in PSA post radiation is an indicator of recurrence. The PSA "cut score" is 2.0. Anyone know why 2.0 is considered a recurrence metric? Typically, what happens next? Treatment options? Indicators of success? Many thanks, EdinBaltimore
