Bradychardia
Can anyone reassure please ? I have been taking Bisoprolol for about 7 years now, and am on the high dose of 5 mgs twice daily now. This keeps my heart rate around 60 when I am sitting. Sometimes, if I am being lazy, the rate can be as low as 55, but perks up once I start doing things. However, this

Anticoagulant changes
I wonder if any of you can advise me please on anticoagulants. I have been on Apixaban for some years and recently when I have had my repeat prescription from the pharmacy the manufacturer of Apixaban has changed four times. With the last one I experienced light headedness and with all of them tiredness

braccacardia symtoms
hi all I wonder if someone can give me some advice. I was diagnosed with AF a few years ago and so far my heart rate has been 65bpm when resting. This last 3 weeks resting heart rate has dropped to the low 50’s and twice dropped to 48 bpm. This does make me feel a little faint and sickly. Itake Bisoprolol

Apixaban
Hi there, I take Bisoprolol, Flecainide and until recently Edoxaban anticoagulant . However, spending much time in France I’ve found that Edoxaban is not accepted as a safe drug and I cannot get it in France . I changed to Apixaban which is available , and was previously recommended by my electro-cardiologist

Anyone else in the same boat?!
Hi! A quick review! Diagnosed with fast AFib four years ago and HCM a year later. On too many meds to mention! Last October had my first ablation-which the hospital said was successful. Unfortunately, that triggered another arrhythmia called atrial tachycardia. Back in for another- and the last one

AFib for past 4 days
Just wondering if anyone out there has experienced being in AFib for longer than a day? And does it revert back? Usually I return to sinus rhythm If I’m only in AF for a few hours or a day but this time it’s been 4 days. Fortunately I don’t have any symptoms like I usually have apart from not being

High Pulse Rate and Irregular Rhythm 3 days after Ablation
I had a cryo ablation at the JR on Friday. I was expecting to be feeling better today but my pulse is all over the place, anywhere between 80 and 140, and irregular. I feel like I'm back in full-on AF.. breathless, tired and light headed. I left a message describing my symptoms with the arrhythmia nurses

Can you tell me what is this new symptom?
Hi once again. Just now I've noticed and felt a new type of heartbeat. My heartbeat was two beats -> pause -> two beats -> pause. Can someone tell what this is? I see a mention of bigeminy or pvc's. I'm currently almost a month post ablation. I didn't have afib episode since December. This is a first

worried in France
Good evening everyone. wishing everyone a peaceful Easter. I am in need of a little advice from you lovely people. Since last Friday, I have been experiencing irregular heartbeats and combined with occasional AF. At least I presume that’s what it is, very fast beats. I don’t really know how long I should

paroxysmal atrial fibrillation converted back to sinus rhythm
Hi, I had a really awful Afib attack that resulted in a fast heart beat the other night. The morning after I took my medication and about an hour later my heart reverted back to sinus rhythm but for a few seconds I nearly passed out and remained very dizzy for the rest of the morning. It almost felt

Aspirin vs apixaban and other blood thinners
Has anyone here with atrial fibrillation been prescribed aspirin rather than other blood thinners like apixaban? I would rather take aspirin but my cardiologist prefers apixaban. It seems like there is research that goes both ways. My GP rolls his eyes and says opinion changes from year to year. I

Facebook group for parents of children with heart block
Hi! My daughter was diagnosed with heart block when she was a year old. I've found it really hard that so little information is available about heart block in children, and there is no specific group for affected families in the UK. I am sure that lots of families have useful knowledge and experience

Discomfort 8 weeks post ablation
So sorry to ask a question again. I live on my own and things get worrying. Had ablation 8 weeks ago and after 10 days felt great. Walking well etc etc. 3 days ago I started to feel chest discomfort and aching in my back. My Apple Watch says I am in sinus rhythm and 65-75bpm but the trace is all over
