Interesting article: Decreased risk of dementia in patients with AF taking oral anticoagulants
https://n.neurology.org/content/early/2022/12/29/WNL.0000000000206748 “Conclusions: In patients with incident NVAF, OACs were associated with a decreased risk of dementia, particularly in the elderly. This warrants consideration when weighing the risks and benefits of anticoagulation in this population

When do you stop Actemra
I have had four infusions of Actemra. I am down to 4 mg of prednisone with no real pain. I really would like to stop the Actmera due to the side affects. At what point is it okay to stop it?

eXroid treatment for Piles
For those who suffer in silence, are petrified of surgery or other invasive treatments for piles and are fed up with the horrible pain (like me) - look at eXroid treatment. The website is exroid.com

Dental extraction.
My question is regarding dental extraction. At the end of this month, I am due to have four dental extractions: Two stumps (it’s a long story); the root of a crown which came off recently and where there is insufficient root left to re-join the crown; and a leaking abscess which appeared the day before

Statins & Steroids
I’ve been advised to take statins due to high cholesterol levels of 7.0, Serum triglycerides 2.3, HDL 2.5, HDL ratio 2.8, LDL 3.4, non HDL 4.5. I’m reluctant to take more meds but I’m unclear of the meaning of all the results and if I should take statins or not. I’ve read some articles stating that

Bleeding internal haemorrhoids
Hi all, does anyone have regular problems with bleeding internal haemorrhoids? If my motions are soft, I have no problems, but as soon as they are the least bit hard, then the bleeding and soreness start up again! I have tried all sorts of lotions and potions, some on prescriptions, but it never goes

Should I take aspirin 300 mgs at home if I think I may be having a stroke despite being on an anticoagulant for atrial fibrillation?
The chances of getting an NHS CT head scan quickly enough to decide whether it’s safe to give clot busting drugs aren’t so good at the moment. I think a cerebral embolus may still be more likely than a cerebral haemorrhage, so aspirin seems logical. Maybe I’ll ask my GP ….. I should say I’m not having

non cardiac chest pain?
I have been advised following treadmill, echocardiograms , CT scan and MRI stress test that my occasional ( at least monthly chest discomfort) is not a blood supply issue as only mild plaque build up ( I am 62 male). They did find an ascending aortic aneurysm that I am seeing a heart surgeon about and

Bad side effects with anticoagulants
Hi all, anyone found it impossible to take anticoagulations due to very bad side effects, including swollen legs, nausea, weight loss, itching, exbaustion, and just generally feeling so unwell that life doesn’t seem worthwhile. I have tried Apixaban and Xarelto - I also take Bisoprol (no problem, together
