Scientists using cells to hopefully grow "mini livers"
Just a super interesting article on a clinical trial that is using cells from donated livers to see if ectopic mini livers can be grown in human lymph nodes that would provide additional liver function in people with ESLD. 2027 is not too far away! Regenerative medicine is advancing yall! Exciting and

4 years recovered
Hello, It's been a few years since I last posted on here. I had post natal psychosis in 2017 after the birth of my now 6 year old son. I then had repeat episodes until mid 2019 so a long recovery. I was told I needed to be on the meds at least 2 years but now here I am, still on meds in 2023. I've recovered

medication
I have managed my Atrial Fibrillation since being diagnosed in 2017, but the last month I have had problems with low heart rate 31-40 & then A/F lasting for over 24hours at a time . Cardiologist suggested medication Disopyramide 250mgs twice a day has anyone used this ? He said if this doesn’t work

Dofetilide
I have afib and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy along with a history of 3 ablations and 7 cardioversions. I recently started taking Dofetilitde after the required 3 day hospital stay. IT is now 10 day later and I still have passing epidodes of afib. I am interested to hear about anyone else on defetilide

still in the hospital…..
Doc seemed surprised that I had initiated the request 🥴 Doc suggested
clinical
trials
. His primary told him 6 weeks ago that he was running out of options. I’m trying to get him in to see Eugene Keon at Mayo. What thoughts have you, oh wise, fellow travelers???

Distended stomach & abdomen after ablation
Bit of a strange one this, so thought I'd ask if anyone else has had a similar experience and a diagnosis. I had my 2nd catheter ablation 4 days ago under Gen Aanaesthetic; the ablation, plus cardioversion, seems to have gone well (allowing for it being very early days) and the groin wound is healing

Humidity and AF
Hi all. Here in SW England we’ve had such heavy, humid weather the past few days. Does anyone else struggle with more breathlessness and fatigue in these conditions? I have persistent AFib and normally get a bit puffed, but this seems twice the normal load, Not to mention the havoc it has caused with

Update on post ablation - day 6
Hi. Well after posting such a positive message to try to cheer up anyone waiting for their first ablation, I came back down to earth with a bump. I felt so well on Wednesday (ablation on Tuesday) that I did everything I felt like doing but at about 01.30, I got a full-blown AF episode which I wasn't

flecainide and eliquis
flecainide was prescribed 50 mg bid when afib episodes became more frequent when taking pill in the pocket. eliquis was also started then 6 months ago. Haven't had any afib episodes since taking flecainide bid. Before asking cardiologist, is eliquis ordinarily continued for the elderly when there are

How quickly do tablets work?
Day 1 of taking 2.5mg of bisoprolol and 60mg edoxaban...how quickly should the tablets start to work? Monitoring blood pressure and worried if the dosage is too high

Sotalol Drug Load
Scheduled to shift from Metoprolol and Diltiazem to Sotalol this next week. Choice of yet another ablation (6th one) was given but I figured, “why keep scarring up my heart?” Did I make the right decision? Seems to me ablations aren’t working and they just manage to damage my heart, albeit in a controlled

After 11 years, dad has started chemo for the first time
Hey all, dad was diagnosed in Feb 2012 (removed prostate right away), metastasized to the coccyx in 2019. Been on Zoladex (for life), Zytiga, Xtandi, etc. Now that his PSA is very slowly increasing (been going up since 2019 from below 0.30 to now at 2.0+), his oncologist recommended we enroll him in
