Hi, I was chatting to a colleague today about their restless legs which have been unbearable lately. Their doctor put them on Perindopril for high blood pressure, Amiodipine- a calcium channel blocker, and Fenofibrate for high cholesterol. He thought they made his legs so much worse (his doctor doesn't

Potential Diagnosis. Vasospasms
So about 8:30am this morning I had a sudden punch to the chest and pain in my arm, it felt different so I did decide to go to hospital felt short of breathe too. ECG fine Second ECG fine Troponin was only 6. So obviously ruling out a heart attack, however I had two more episodes of the same thing

Atrial tachycardia since ablation.
Hi. Wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Since my pulmonary vein ablation in October I have had one long episode of AFib and had my sixth cardioversion. Since then I have had episodes of atrial tachycardia (resting heart rate between 110-140) My calcium channel blockers - diltiazem -were

There is also

Well at least that’s one less thing to worry about.
I’m so pleased to learn that my recent dexa scan after seven years of prednisolone is normal and unchanged from three years ago. Not being a pill popper before diagnosis I have struggled to take the calcium and Vit D supplement and Alendronic Acid which were prescribed as routine by my GP. A dexa scan

Artificial oocyte (egg) activation (AOA) - calcium ionophore - any one used this ?
Has anyone used Calcium Ionophore ? I have been offered this for my current round to help with fertilisation rates. I am set to get 5 embryos. Last time one out of the three total I got didn’t fertilise. Seems like a no brainier but worried about any contraindications. Tia <3

calcium through foods
how do you know if you are getting enough calcium through foods, I have just ordered 500mg of calcium citrate, I'm not messing around measuring this and measuring that, and the 20mg of famatodine that I take won't help, the calcium citrate I bought is 3 capsules =500mg, I think I will just take 2 a day

Vitamin K2
Trying to find best vitamin K2 supplement. I can’t take calcium but lots of dairy and take D3 on its own daily. I take methotrexate, steroids and other meds so I don’t want the strongest K2 but one I can absorb without a problem. I have been on risedronate for two years but dexa scan had not improved

Encephalopathy (HE), a visit to an ancient brain

CAD at 47 - Shock
Just a bit of background. Was suffering from anxiety attacks and heart palpitations last Sep. Was referred to a cardiologist (privately). Did the usual tests (holt ecg / Echo / CTCA). Whilst the ecg and echo came back with no issues, unfortunately CTCA showed moderate( 50%) stenosis in mid-LAD. Calcium

Can you help me with an advice, please
Hello everyone! I am diagnosed with hypothyroidism and take Levothyroxine 100mg. I don't feel well at all, but I also have other health problems: lupus, Sjogren's, Henoch's purpura, neutropenia... I have a lot of symptoms and pains that I don't know where they are coming from, but fibromyalgia and depression

Hi all, I previously posted on behalf of my Mom. TSH, B12, folate and vitamin D below was taken 21/12/23. GP prescribed 50,000 unit 1 a week for 6 weeks vitamin D caps. So we see the ones called calceous 400 unit with calcium 1 twice a day did not maintain her level. So that could be one reason why she

T3 and updates.
Hope everyone is having a good day and not pouring it down and misty as it is here. Managed to have a telephone consultation with my usual Dr. today that I feel was helpful. My T3 result was done with my last tests and is 4.5 which said in normal range. I only had one thyroid test prior to beginning

Private cardiac MOT 5 years on?
Hi everyone... I'm just coming up on 5 years since an 'out of the blue' heart attack and cardiac arrest. My annual CHD review is due, and I pretty much know what to expect - they'll weigh me, ask me about my exercise, check my bloods and ask me how I feel. No red flags from that I'll be on my way
