IVIG after heart surgery and stopping IBRUTIMIB
12 months ago I was on an Ibrutinib clinical trial for my CLL. Ibrutinib worked great for me for years. I found out I needed a triple bypass due to 95% LAD artery blockage. Not good! A stent wasn’t an option in my case due to necessity for blood thinners. Can’t do blood thinners, aspirin and Irbutinib

Replying to enquirer "fifteen".
You sent me a message asking for a paper on hypothyroidism and left ventricular failure. I've found this that might be of use: Br Heart J. 1982 Sep; 48(3): 278–284. doi: 10.1136/hrt.48.3.278 PMCID: : 7104121 Left ventricular function in hypothyroidism. Responses to exercise and beta adrenoceptor

Dry Eye Syndrome
Quick question. I was at opthalmology today re another matter and whilst there he diagnosed Dry Eye Syndrome. He said it was most likely another autoimmune condition I had. He said it would be a lifelong condition with drops a cream for my eyes. Has anyone else with alopecia been diagnosed with this.

Persistent afib
I thought I was okay now I'm in persistent afib ( since September 2022) but looking at the posts from yesterday's health unlocked (estesbubba post) people are saying it's not good to be in persistent afib as it causes the heart to work harder and then become enlarged and that can lead to heart failure

My dad died, now I'm back to square one
My dad died a week ago from a heart attack. Since then I became very anxious, afraid to go to the toilet at night, afraid me too will suffer a heart attack. I know my physical symptoms are due to anxiety, but my anxiety makes me doubt this. My husband and I are going overseas in March and leaving our

Q10 Supplement
My chiropractor suggested I might benefit from taking a supplement called Q10 gold. The research I did was quite interesting done by Pharma Nord, seems their studies with people with heart problems eg heart failure also CABG mortality rate reduced considerably, also enhanced energy levels etc. My Chiropractor

Bisoprolol 1.25 dosage. Coming off it?
Bisoprolol? I am on a very low dosage, 1.25 ml., and have been for more than a year. Over past months I have felt incredibly tired (sleeping for too long overnight/having naps during the day) and have been totally lacking in energy with no real interest (I don’t feel depressed) to move myself. On monitoring

Heart valve checks…!
Good morning. I had my aortic heart valve replaced over 8 years ago. It’s only just been brought to my attention that I should have yearly check ups. Out of the blue I developed AF with a resting heart rate of 170. I underwent a cardioversion which was successful. Only now I’m being told a yearly check
