Back/pelvis/hip pain?
A month or 2 ago, I got a new dog, he's bigger than my previous dog and he pulls on the lead. And I got stressed adapting to the change. Somewhere soon after that I picked up a bug, and the PMR "buzzing" in my shoulders, arms and calves popped back. Not really painful but aware of "the bucket" I stopped

Bit old fashioned...
I discovered that a castor oil pack really helps with knee pain. It's horrible sticky oil, but it works topically (for me at least). I have bad memories of this stuff from my childhood. Any hint of sickness and out came the bottle. I would not recommend injesting it! 🤮 it's better than the deep heat

Can anyone help?
I have purchased some Deep Heat muscle rub thinking it would help my aches and pains, but on the leaflet enclosed it states that people taking anticoagulants should not use it owing to the ingredients interacting with this medication. I take Warfarin. Does anyone know if there is a safe lubricant that

Calf Pain and PAD
Hi, I wasn't sure if this should be posted in a Diabetes forum or on here, after thinking about it I think that this BHF site is the better option. So Peripheral Arterial Disease. I had both Iliac Arteries 'bored' out with balloon angioplasty in May of this year (Left leg fully occulted and Right leg

PMR and Pfizer Covid Vaccine
Within 5 days of my husband and I receiving the first Pfizer Covid jab, he started getting pains in his legs and shoulders. He took paracetamol & used Bio Freeze, similar to deep heat. He got progressively worse, a GP diagnosed Frozen Shoulder over the phone, prescribed Co-Codamol & Naproxen. Within

10k training run
Hi folks 🤗 just thought I'd update you on how my training is going. Today I'm up to 6k run I could pinch myself as never thought I'd get to do anything like that again!! Feeling good though wee bit knee trouble now and then. But nothing a pain killer and deep heat can sort. I'm joining a park run group

Stressing
I've been a bit quiet for a while but that doesn't mean to say I've stopped running. I've been ringing the changes with my runs and really enjoying them. Our park run was cancelled last week as part of the course was flooded but I got on the treadmill instead. I've also been going to my alternative

How long does it take!
Hey, please could anyone tell me their experiences of recovery after quadrupal heart bypass. I had this done in February, complications and infections took me back into hospital again after three weeks from being discharged. The infection was in my chest wound, I spent another three weeks in hospital

Dronenadrone and Bisoprolol
Hi all Is anyone else on Bisoprolol alongside Dronenadrone (Multaq)? The Multaq has been very successful to date at reducing my AF burden to 2% or less every week measured via Apple Watch Series 8. After a 24 hour ecg holter my cardiologist thinks that I have an arrythmia called SVT (Super Ventricula

Worried about brother still in hospital after heart surgery
Hello, I am posting because my brother is in hospital after a heart bypass and I am worried. He has a very sharp brain but seems to be finding it hard to express himself. He was due home this weekend but has a cough and fluid on the lung plus a partially deflated lung. He was on Amiodarone medication

Which medicine is messing with my thyroid med uptake
Might anyone be able to suggest which of my other meds has affected my thyroid med uptake (100mcg thyroxine and 2x5mcg t3)? I was prescribed digoxin, furosemide and bisoprolol after having open heart surgery 3 mths ago to resolve some anatomical defects. Uptil that point thyroid levels were stable

Can I take an extra Bisoprolol
Hi all, I’m having loads of ectopic beats since yesterday and it’s really worrying me, a month ago I reduced my Bisoprolol to 1.25, I’m wondering if it would be okay to take another 1.25 today to try to calm these ectopics. Pulse rate is staying stable and not flying too high. My OH is away so I feel

Post Ablation Monitor Report is in..
Well, I,had an ablation on May 10th for Atrial Tachycardia and it was a 'success' in that they ablated the SVT. The downside is that 1) they weren't able to ablate the left sided ectopics, and 2) I have lingering inappropriate sinus tachycardia. So now I am stuck trying different meds again to lower

Increased episodes of AF
I have had paroxysmal AF for about 5 years. For several years I only had an episode every 6 months or so and was prescribed 1.25 of Bisoprolol just once a day and 5mg of Apixaban twice a day. 18 months ago the AF episodes got a little more frequent, my GP upped my Bisoprolol to 1.25 twice a day, no
