Update after cardiac catheterization.
First a BIG THANK YOU for all the advice and support. I felt you with me every step of the way. The catheterization showed no narrowing of the major cardiac arteries. But head cardiologist came and said all my symptoms were classic heart attack and clearly something was blocked...so i have a bucket

Night seizures
I was hit by a van 14 months ago. I have made an amazing recovery without much follow up at all from neurology. Yesterday, I had a neurologist assessment for my insurance claim. All was good but now I’m feeling anxious. He asked me if I had woken up having bitten my tongue. I said no but I keep thinking

First ever park run
Well, I’ve finally done it! First parkrun in the bag and it was enjoyable- as everyone had said, brilliantly well organised, friendly and absolutely no pressure. I wasn’t going to take the dog because I wanted to suss it out myself first but she did those puppy dog eyes at me when I put the gear on

prucalopride - Tips
Hi Have been suffering with chronic constipation for that last 2 years, plus pain in the pelvic floor area & rectum. Mixture of pressure & burning pain. My NHS Gastro & physio appointments are currently 3/4mths apart so if I make any kind of improvement it is diminished by the time I get back to them

Interesting diet study for NASH and Fibrosis.
"A clinical trial, led by a team at NDPCHS, has shown that a three-month rapid weight loss programme was not only safe but also effective in reducing the severity of a liver disease non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with liver fibrosis." https://www.phc.ox.ac.uk/news/rapid-weight-loss-found-to-be-safe-and-helpful-for-people-with-liver-disease

Very scared again
Hi, I posted here a few months ago and people were so genuinely nice to take the time to respond. Last year I had multiple tests because of symptoms of cirrhosis I have (they are not terribly obvious to others, they are to me). Amongst all the tests I had, the Fibroscans came back at 3.33 or so but

Fatigue
I was diagnosed with a moderate severe brain injury following a serious cycling accident over six years ago. I recovered really well and only knew about the brain injury following a further scan last year. I function fine generally and you wouldn't really know without knowing me well that anything had

decompensated liver
Hi all, Around a year ago my mum was admitted to A and E with decompensated liver due to alcohol. It was very hard to get her admitted despite numerous phone calls to the doctors and the ambulance because she had capacity. She had ascites, encephalopathy, oedema and was yellow all over her skin and

Acceptance is a process
In April my Concussion was something I thought was temporary. If I pushed and worked at the recovery, like any past injuries that I have rehabilitated from, then I would be back to normal in a few months...... I thought that after a couple of months I would be able to return to work at a reduced intensity

decades Later
I was married to a wonderful man. prior to our 20 yrs together, he was hit over the head with a full beer bottle. He lacked feeling emotions, never realizing it was part of the impact. One day he woke up and didn’t love anyone anymore.. divorced me, isolated himself from his kids, friends, family.

Run once a week?
I started C25K back in June, but stopped in Week 3 due to knee injuries caused by going too fast too soon. I had some physio, took time to rest, and did the recommended stretches etc. I restarted last month, doing the Week 1 runs at much slower pace than before, and only running once a week. So far

Week 9 #2 done
I'm so nearly there. I really did not think I would get this far when I first set out. I thought either laziness or injury would stop me but here I am comfortably running 5k in 30 minutes and with only 1 run remaining. I am truly shocked! Hopefully Tuesday morning will see me complete C25k and from

increase dosage?
I think I’m doing the right thing but a little confirmation would help. Last evening I fell down a few stairs (tiredness I think) and have hurt my foot. Nothing broken but badly sprained and bruised. Gave me quite a shock and that seems to have lasted. Before the fall I was on 7mg and was trying to
