Sexual Dysfunction :: Generic Viagra Vs Brand Viagra

I can recommend a reputable pharmacy. I've tried both original brand and generic Viagra. There is no difference in effectiveness as far as I can tell between the brand and Generic versions. The real difference is price, no comparison. And this suppliers seem honest and reliable. On the site I've just placed my 3rd order. Viagra from this site is indeed good for male erection problem treatment.

Alternative Blood Thinners To Warfarin

I am about to speak to my GP and Cardiologist about having one of the alternative blood thinners as because of an underlying problem with my bladder I am often on Prophylactic antibiotics and they do not interact well with the warfarin, making it difficult for them to get my INR correct. can any of you on any of the alternatives let me know how you are on them, any any side effects related to them, don't want to jump out of the frying pan into the fire!!!! the good thing for me would be I understand they do not interact with other medication, the 3 I have found that are available are Dabigatran, Rivaroxaban and Apixaban.

Warfarin? Cystitis/bladder Infections?

Has anyone else had problems with cystitis/bladder infections when on Warfarin?  This is a problem I have never ever experienced previously but for the last few days I seem to have had all the classic symptoms and am wondering if it could be Warfarin-related? I have been taking Warfarin for approx 7 months after a P/E and will be on it for life.  My INR is very unstable, (currently 3.4....should be 2.5).  A week ago I finished a one week course of antibiotics to try to clear up a chesty cough, (didn't).

Atrial Fibrillation And Warfarin - Experiences?

I was diagnosed with Atrial Fibrillation about a year ago and have been treated with Bisoprolol and Aspirin. This seems to be working for me but have been advised by my doctor to go onto warfarin as I am at medium risk of a stroke. I don't want to change anything at the moment whilst the present medication seems to be working because I have heard some negative reports of warfarin - not only the side effects of hair loss etc. and giving up various foods but also the fact that you have to tell your doctor about practically any changes in what you eat and where you go (holidays etc). This seems very restrictive. Could I please have your experiences of taking Warfarin.

Warfarin - Neurotoxin And Can Cause Brain Damage?

I have just been on warfarin for 6 months for a left femoral dvt,during the prescribing phase no information was given to me,and I am shocked to find out myself after having an episode where my vision went very weird with associated vomiting for 5 hours that warfarin is a neurotoxin and can in some cause brain damage.wouldn't you think someone would give me that information at the start.prior to the above episode i had experience short burst periods of dizziness,and profound lack of clarity of thought. considering the seriousness of this drug wouldn't you think more information would be available to the taker of the drug other than the scant information on the drug information leaflets coming with the drug.I am profoundly angry as the lack of the more serious side effects to this drug not being given to me in order that i might make informed choices at the start.i have stopped the drug myself and informed my doctor of this.

Atrial Fibrillation - How Long? Bisoprolol And Warfarin

I had my first encounter with AF in September of 2013. I was put on Bisoprolol and Warfarin until I had a cardioversion in february the following year.

All has been well, until a few nights ago when I woke the morning after and found that I had gone back into AF.

I have been on a low dose of Bisoprolol (1.25mg) since the procedure. I also cut my alcohol intake to 2-3 drinks per week and kept exercising as I have always done.

I took myself to the local A&E department and was wired up which confirmed what I already knew. They didn't seem overly concerned that I was in AF and holding a heart rate of 80/90 bpm and told I was in controlled AF. I was then discharged and booked into my local GP later that morning.

The appointment didn't yield much movement apart from a referral to a specialist which would take approx 4 weeks.

He left me on my dose of Bisoprolol and told me to get back in touch if I felt any changes in the symptoms.

I have a feeling of been left in the dark, and as well as been quite worried that it all comes across a bit relaxed by the system when I myself am really worried!!!! Is it just me?

Has anybody felt similar?

Deep Vein Thrombosis :: Warfarin And Smoking

My husband had an idiopathic DVT in late 2012. He has been taking

Warfarin ever since, and has recently been told he will be on it for life due

to being a smoker. He is desperate to be in a position to stop taking it and has recently stopped smoking. He realises this won't happen immediately but has no idea how long it is likely to take to get to that position. Does anyone have any idea what kind of time frame for coming off the Warfarin after stopping smoking is likely? He won't be starting smoking again!

Atrial Fibrillation / Flutter :: Warfarin Or Ablation?

I have been diagnosed with AF today after a phone call from the hospital to say I need another ECG which I am having on Monday I was taken into hospital in the early hours of Thursday morning after waking up with palpitations and rapid heart beat. I was sent home after having tests and was told my blood tests was clear including troponin. Then came the the phone call today saying I have AF and might have to go on Warfarin.

When I was ready to go home from the hospital I stood up and felt awful, I told the nurse I felt faint and had nausea, clammy, blurred vision and felt really weak....

My hearing was reduced so couldn't hear properly and could barely talk. I had my blood pressure taken and it was 80/40. When it settled down my temperature was 35 so then I felt cold. I stayed in the hospital for another 3 hours before I went home...

I would like to know how others cope on warfarin or if anyone had the ablation op. I was in the same hospital in June this year for 10 days with the same symptoms but AF wasn't mentioned to me then only ectopic beats. I would like to add I have been suffering with this for over 30 years. I am going to ask about the ablation I don't fancy being on Warfarin....

Has anyone had low blood pressure like I had with this condition?

Kidney - Diagnosed With CKD Stage 3 (GFR 48)

I have just been diagnosed with CKD stage 3 (GFR 48) and I can't understand why. I have low blood pressure and don't have diabetes. I am slim fit and healthy and age 52 so not that old.

Diagnosed With Gallbladder Rocks

I was diagnosed with gallbladder rocks last year. I am 20 years and haven't removed it yet because I wanted to get some feedback from people close to my age, what was the best approach? did it affect you alot? it would be very helpful if a few people who have had similar problems could comment and tell me about their story in order to get to a more educated decision. I have had plenty of medical feedback but I'd love to hear it from those who had to go through it.

Just Diagnosed With Barrett's Oesophagus

After having reflux and pains in my throat and stomach for a long time my GP finally referred me for a Endoscopy in January. The Doctor carrying this out said I had Barrett's Oesophagus and showed me some pictures. It is rather scary just how red and inflamed it looked. He asked me what medication I was on and I said Omeprazole (20mg) twice a day but I needed to take Rennies antacid tablets (orange) as well to help with the discomfort.

The Doctor told me to keep on with the Omeprazole as it is a precancerous condition and this would help. He also said I needed to have a endoscopy every three years. I am finding that the omeprazole doesn't help when I have the discomfort and the only relief I can get is when I take the Rennies and sometimes Gaviscon. I am still taking the omeprazole as instructed (40g a day) but wondered if anyone else who suffers with this finds omeprazole ineffective or takes something else as well. I'm sure the prolonged taking of Rennies isn't good.

Viagra For Woman?

Why isn't there help for us woman in the area of not being able to orgasm or problems with low libido?

I am 55 yrs old and have only enjoyed the experience of what it feels like to orgasm 3 times. first time in 2004 and two more at separate times within the past few years. I think I'm having problems due to the medications i'm taking.

I've been on an anti depressant since 2004 and klonopin to treat my general anxiety disorder. I KNOW for a fact these two are culprits. but when I wasn't even taking these meds I couldn't achieve orgasm. I can't stand it when dr.s say it's all in my head that I can't. that the mind prevents me from experiencing it.

I've had 4 natural births but have had surgical laparotomies 3 times due to one being a total hysterectomy when I was 45 and previous emergency surgery after a mishap from having a routine tubal ligation years before having my hysterectomy. so the nerves have been cut and maybe possibly damaged either from the surgeries or from having the episiotomy from having the vaginal births.

I read that dr.s take SUCH care in performing surgery for men when they have prostrate surgery as not to damage the delicate nerves, but they don't take the same care when they cut the woman for the episiotomy therefore damaging the nerves on the woman which can cause damage to nerves.
there fore we can't FEEL as well as before the surgery.

I feel numb down there most of the time. I asked my family dr for help but he referred me to a gyno. My gyno did hormone tests which showed up all normal levels for my age. I am also taking estrogen since my total hyster. because of having had to go into sudden menopause. let me tell you, I was a BASKET CASE when I wasn't taking the estrogen.

so it helps me significantly. but not in the area I'm writing about here.

I want to know if there is anything that a woman can take to get better blood flow to help achieve orgasm. that's why they say foreplay is SO important. and now I see why this is true. the woman gets blood flow to the vaginal area which is needed and takes at least 15 minutes for this to happen.

My gyno RX'd me some type of hormone but my insurance would not cover the brand name OR the generic form. so I gave up trying. I was on a mission to get this resolved.

I've just accepted that there's nothing that can be done for me. I feel so frustrated and angry at the team of scientists and FDA that doesn't approve medicine for woman. it took them YEARS and multiple attempts only to be denied approval for what they call "the little pink pill" and in studies they found that the pink pill had less side effects than Viagra for men but the FDA still wouldn't approve it.

I am starting to take this personal now. Why on earth won't the fda approve med's for woman for sexual problems? someone told me because they'd be worrying that while the men were at work that their woman would be home and getting into trouble with other men.. lol... ridiculous!

I got to the point where I was taking over the counter male testosterone but it's so expensive. I now am trying an herbal supplement that has been used in other countries for many years called horny goat weed with MACA in it. I found it in the intimacy isle of my pharmacy and it's a lot cheaper than the so called supplements of testosterone.

I think it was progesterone that my Dr. prescribed me that my insurance wouldn't cover.

so I'm wondering what hormone I actually need.

oh! by the way, if you're wondering if the herbal pills I'm taking are working, Ive only been on it a week and I'm not taking the recommended 4 tabs a day. only 2.

I did feel different in my body with sensations, but wasn't able to achieve what I wanted. WHY ISN'T THERE ANY SPECIALISTS FOR WOMAN???? in this area? they would make a FORTUNE helping woman all over the globe.

I think it's time someone from the female population stand up and fight for a change. I would, but I don't know where to begin.
