blood pressure lower than usual
hi I posted a few weeks ago about my husband’s diagnosis of DCM. After two months, his entresto dose has been increased to 49/51 twice a day. bisoprolol remains at 1.25mg daily and empagliflozin at 10 mg daily. I am happy to say that he is feeling much more positive and doesn’t have any symptoms

husband just diagnosed with dilated catsiomyopathy
Hi my 51 year old his back has just been diagnosed with DCM. It would seem to be in a slightly milder form (I think). The only symptom he has displayed has been slight palpitations, feeling like a skipped heartbeat. His initial echo showed an EF of 38%. For the last few weeks he has been on entresto

Empagliflozin
I have a 30yr transplant but my main problem now is heart failure. I had to come off Entresto as it had an adverse effect on my kidney function. Now prescribed 10mg Empagliflozin to hopefully help breathlessness. I am reluctant to start this after my previous experience. Would like to hear if anyone

Non Diabetic Hypoglycemia!
So the ongoing itching has driven me crazy, and took matters into my own hands as fed up of GP, Consultants and Cardio Teams all saying talk to someone else. I demanded blood tests to check if underlying condition maybe causing the itching ( even though still 90% convinced it's meds- Dapagliflozin is

Dapagliflozin. Anyone else experience extreme fatigue/tiredness right after taking this med each day?
I take it midday usually and within an hour I am wiped out. Very tired. Pretty much the case each day. I take this for heart failure. Just wondering if anyone else experiences this?

Ablation/S-ICD Recovery Time - why is it taking so long?
Bit of a long one… Hi all, I’m currently recovering from a 4 week hospital stay and struggling with the recovery period. I was admitted for investigation due to a high burden of PVCs which were making me very symptomatic. I had a previous diagnosis of low burden of PVCs, as well as mild dilated cardiomyopathy

Inflamed liver
Hi All, I haven't posted for a while, so I will try to explain how I feel generally. Had HA back in September & had a stent fitted. Most of the time I feel ok but every now & again I feel pretty awful, like I'm getting over Flu or a virus. My main symptons are tenderness in lower ribs & stomach ache

Confused with Albumin Creatinine Ratio
I just got my UACR Report back . Ratio was 22 mg/g ( report says below 30 is normal ) but Urine spot Albumin is 3.4 mg/dl ( <1.9 mg/dl is normal ) . So which result to believe , The UACR one or the Albumin ? Should I get 24 Hours Albumin or is this enough ? I have foamy urine since the last 3 months

Why has my husband been given Candesartan when he hasn’t got high blood pressure . It must be for his stage 2 heart failure I presume .
My husband has been given this drug along with digoxin to add to his other meds , bisoprol , antorvaststin , Lansoprazole, edoxoban and dapagliflozin. He ll be rattling soon . He has been relatively stable . The ecg showed heart rate of 100 so I presume the cardiologist wants to lower it further . Is
