Dehydration.
I am on Bumetanide twice daily for mild heart failure. We all know what it does but in this weather we are encouraged not to become dehydrated. I am drinking loads of fluids but should I expect more or less loo trips under these circumstances. Still no rain here.

Regurgitation
Hello. So I posted a while ago about having ventricular bigeminy and that I was having a private echo done. A&E, my GP and my cardiologist said to not have it because my heart structure won't change in 7 months. I got my report back today and it turns I have pulmonary, mitral and tricuspid regurgitation

Mitral valve replacement - waiting for operation, the wait time and the do's and dont's advice please
Hi all, I had an ECG on 17th July which showed severe leaking of my Mitral valve. I had an angiogram on the 28th July which showed no blockages in my arteries. I have a meeting with my cardiologist on 15th August. To date my GP or the cardio team have not given me any advice on what I should be doing

mechanical heart valve patients using marijuana!!!
Hello people! I have recently (8months back)had an aortic heart valve replacement with a mechanical st Jude valve and also the grafting was done. The reason I’m posting here is that I’m concerned and curious to know that whether Consuming marijuana (once a week) for recreational purposes can interfere

Pleural effusion, then oramorph od !
Went in for my 6 week consultants review after my valve replacement and bypass on Wednesday (the first appointment was originally 12 weeks, but I got an earlier one so only 5 weeks 2 days....lucky I did). I thought I was not really improving on the breathless side, turns out I had a plural effusion (

Bone scan/CT sensitivity?
My husband has only ever had regular nuclear bone scan and CT. PSA is now rising over 6 months from .45 to.9. At what PSA level would repeat scans be likely to image progression? I am aware of PSMA and this might come down the line but currently from what I read from TA and others is that we need comparable

Jevtana
Once again I am asking for any information that can be provided from this great group. Would appreciate any information for Jevtana treatment. At doctor's appt yesterday, my husband's hemoglobin had decreased to 7.6 and he had to have a blood transfusion. His Alkaline Phosphatase went up again.

Poop talk: microbiome and prostate cancer, some news
Ok, it's one fascinating subject, especially if we use the word microbiome! Consider that the study was carried out on murine models but also on humans, so there are some interesting findings. In a small small nutshell (but I suggest you to read the whole article, at least the introduction and the conclusions

Enzalutamide Plus 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors for Castrate-Sensitive Prostate Cancer
Phase II trial exploring the combination of enzalutamide with five alpha-reductase inhibitors (ARIs) for castrate-sensitive prostate cancer. Driven by observations from geriatric oncology, the study seeks alternatives to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for older, frail men who struggle with its side

Low Potassium/High Calcium Caution
Hi Guys I had a mineral check via a mouth swab and a Methylation report via a hair sample as suggested by a nutritionist who has been helping me sort my gut and auto-immune issues. I wasn't expecting much ... but how lovely to be pleasantly surprised for once! The reports were as if the person writing

Does PSA drop after starting ADT tell us anything?
My husband started Firmagon shots a month ago. Before starting his PSA was 5.9. It was tested a few days ago and it’s 1.4 now. Does this tell us anything of any significance? Thanks!

Does anyone take this supplement?
I have been doing a lot of research on how to fix cramping. Let me first say, no pickle juice does not work. I also do not have fluid taken off during dialysis. I add 400ml of saline each treatment. I also have no fluid restrictions and so I do drink a lot of water. And none of my mineral labs indicate

Elevated liver enzymes but no cause?
Hello, just wondering if anybody else has elevated liver enzymes but no cause found? ALT and AST have been raised for months but doctors can’t find a cause. I’ve had SO many tests, scans etc, and everything is normal? Yet they keep coming back raised. I take 1.25mg bisoprolol but doctors are certain

Subarachnoid Hemorrhage & Tinnitus
Hi I had a Subarachnoid hemorrhage 4 weeks ago with no Aneurysms or other abnormalities found after an Angiogram. I feel very lucky & grateful to be one of the lucky ones. I've been taking 5mg of Amlodipine for 2 weeks to stop BP peaking & have since had mild tinnitus. I'm seeing GP next week for BP
