5 Days Post Ablation and getting an ECG
After three days of being extremely breathless and light headed following a cryo ablation at the JR last Friday I'm now feeling more settled, my pulse still fast and irregular but not as extreme. I had a call from an arrhythmia nurse (at last) at the JR who was very helpful. The next step is an ECG

No one died from A F
I posted earlier today . I am not now being negative , I am trying to be pragmatic . On this brilliant forum we are constantly told “ no one dies of AF “. I was wondering what actually brought on the first bout of A F to people here. Mine came on years after Mitral Valve repair . 2 long ablations

What is a cardioversion?
If you have AF you may have been offered a cardioversion, but may be unsure of what to expect? A
cardioversion
is a procedure to convert your heart from AF back into normal (sinus) rhythm. This is achieved by administering a rhythm control medication (antiarrhythmic drug) by mouth or through

I just need to vent!
Hi all, I’ve just had an appointment that I’ve waited over two years for regarding my Meralgia Paraesthetica. My thigh has been numb for over 20 years following a Cesarean section but in the last two years, it feels like it’s had acid thrown over it. The guy I spoke to said that there’s nothing they

Lopressor dose titration
Permanent afib 100mgm of Lopressor am & 50 pm plus eliquis. Decided to cut back to 50 in am because of blurred vision and now have had upset stomach times 1 week plus HR back up to low 100's. Thought I felt better on lower dose but maybe not??

Too Much Omega 3 triggering AFib?
I care for a family member with an AFib history. It has recently reared its head again after several years without an issue. I have been trying to find a possible trigger. One of the possible things I suspect is that it may be the overhaul in her diet the last couple of months. I noticed one day

Fitbit versus Apple watch
Thank you to everyone who replied to my post re Apple watch and Kardia. I decided on the Kardia 6 as part of the kit mainly because cardiologists seem to think they are accurate.

facial rash
hi there, I have just had a positive ana result and suspected lupus so I am being referred to a rheumatologist. I have a slight red rash on both cheeks but nothing on my nose. Can a lupus facial rash be just mildly on both cheeks and not on your nose? thanks in advance for any replies? Pinkyerin

Have you experience of Chemotherapy and underactive thyroid?
I have recently completed chemo following surgery for a bowel tumour. I was wondering if anyone has experience of chemotherapy and underactive thyroid? I have continued to take 75 T4 and 20 T3. It’s difficult to know if the fatigue / sleep problems are to do with the thyroid or chemo. many thanks.

Oxygen therapy
I am helping to look after my 88 year old sister at present. She has been prescribed ambulatory oxygen therapy following a diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension, I think related to her Protein S Deficiency. She is frail and even the small oxygen cylinders are heavy and difficult for her to use but oxygen

Can anyone shed some light on Anti CCP antibodies result?
Hi everyone, my name is Claire. I’ve just received back some blood test results (Rheumatoid Factor and Anti CCP antibodies). The Rheumatoid Factor came back negative but the Anti CCP came back as 10.4 K/UL. The test states that normal range is under 2.9 K/Ul yet mine is over 3 times higher. The last
