Apixaban skin reaction?
I’m having the most awful burning, itchy, inflamed skin on my face that’s come on suddenly over the past couple of days. Im wondering if it’s related to the Apixaban that I’m on. Has anyone else had such a reaction? I have tried an otc antihistamine to no avail so if anyone knows a remedy I’d love

Any help on a 10 year old please?
Hi, my 10 year old granddaughter had open heart surgery in September to repair 2 holes in her heart . She has come through it just fine - thank you GOSH - no issues at all really, all she wanted to do was cartwheel, she can...so she's well on her way to recovery. ....However since surgery we've noted

New way to trigger an episode apparently
So I've been successful in remaining episode free since I had that short VT episode a bit over 2 weeks ago now. Last night I was using a deep tissue massager, and I pressed somewhat harder on a sore spot near bottom left back, I clearly felt my heart bump into AF. I then had AF (and not super fast

A Tip!
if you have AF ( with a family history of heart disease as I have) and start getting angina-type symptoms, don’t waste time trying to convince yourself that’s it costocondritis as I did. . Get yourself checked out with an angiogram as soon as possible. In my area it has one of the shortest waiting lists

Failed Back Surgery
In 2017 I had a Laminectomy for Severe Spinal Stenosis in L3/4/5. The operation was successful and for 3/4 months I was completely pain free for the first time in years! In 2018 I had a bad fall and this resulted in having a Rotator Cuff Repair which was successful but by now my spinal pain was back
