Great Words by Dylan Thomas - praying we all don’t go down easily in this struggle.
Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right, Because their words had forked no lightning they Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how

Tens machines RSL
Back on the RSL with the talk of tens machines for pain I wonder if you could use one on your head to try and scramble the signals as when it’s bad I go under the shower as hot as pos and as forceful it helps quite a lot but staying in there all night isn’t fun always think it’s just my brain not wired

Tens machine
Do any of you lovely people use TENS machines to help with their RA? Are they any good? Googling suggests you talk to a physio and perhaps try one out, but the chances of talking to a physio are rather remote at present.

Heart Transplant
Has anyone else with Cardiomyopathy been told that their only option left is a Heart Transplant? Just received this info from Hospital 4 days ago and it's left me feeling so numb. Is anyone else going through this.

Deep Heat Patch

TENS machine to manage period/miscarriage cramping
A little tip that has been a life changer for me and that I wanted to share to all ladies out there: I suffer from terrible period cramps that incapacitate me for a couple of days each month and that I felt I had to over-medicate myself to get to a tolerable enough level (= in a half comatose state in

Peak flow readings
Good morning all. I’ve recently been diagnosed with Heart Failure and I’ve been asked to use a peak flow meter to check my lungs. Over the last week my average is around 575 (I’m a 6ft - 68 years old- male). I think this is ok and shows my breathlessness is caused by my Heart Failure. My question is

Where do I go from here? Afib or arythmia any difference?
Editing my post as no replies.Never known this but maybe too muddled. Until 31st of January I had Paroxysmal AF with only 2 attacks in 18 months. This changed from 31st January. At first a typical afib attack .Feeling faint, dizziness,unable to walk around the house without being breathless. This

Recommendations to stop feeling sick with heart failure?
Still waiting for the final part of node ablation and switching on of CRT device. Implanted 8 weeks ago and still no news of the next bit. Rang hospital today and they could not tell me anything. Just got to keep waiting. Even though the EP casually said just give me a ring if you feel unwell and I’ll

Can I damage my testicles by mild massaging/checking for potential problems?
I've had some lower right abdomen, for some time now. I've had some problems with bowels movement, but I started to suspect it might actually be one of my testicles. I think it is actually a back pain problem, it is such a vague pain I can't even tell exactly where I have it. It doesn't matter. What

Long-term Flecainide for atrial tachycardia
Well, my pulse rate is mostly regular now. The strange thing is, I can still feel it doing the occasional somersault and palpitations, even though the pulse remains regular. Anyone else had this?

Dr FREI REUSABLE MASK WITH VALVE - RECALL.
My wife has just had a fascinating morning with Amazon as we received 6 e mails yesterday asking for these to be returned as it has been found they only have 5% instead of 95% efficacy as found in Iceland - the country not the shop. I just want to let you know that you can contact Amazon customer services

Return to Afib with a vengeance
Had two ablations the last one September 2020. Have taken Apixaban and 1.25mg Bisoprolol after reduction from 2.5mg. About December/January i stopped taking any Bisoprolol and after maybe 6/8 weeks I noticed when taking my BP I missed a heart beat every 30 or so. Instead of discussing with the Cardiologist

Minimal Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement
I had Minimal Invasive Aortic Valve Replacement 3 weeks ago as I had a bicuspid valve. I am at home 2 weeks now and having a lot of difficulty sleeping. Is this normal? I am quite anxious as I get pain in my chest and start to imagine all sorts. Minimal invasive is far less traumatic than open heart
