Metoprolol stopped working / quad bypass surgery
I have been taking 50mg of Metoprolol since I had quad bypass 9 weeks ago. It has kept my blood pressure down into normal range but about a week ago I started getting slight pain in my arms, under my shoulder blades and shortness of breath when active and moving around. I also noticed that my blood

8 months on 2.5 Bisoprolol Fumarate & 2X5mg Apixaban. Had overcome most of the aches and pains but NOW THEY ARE BACK. Anyone have the same?
Hello Everyone. I have No energy, chest discomfort, poor sleep, concrete like legs, and sleepy during the day. This Covid situations doesn't help as it's hard to get to see the doctor or to get blood work done. The hospitals are very busy with patients sick with the virus so going there is a big risk

PAF to persistent
I have been in AF for 2.5 weeks now. Normally always reverted to sinus rhythm before 7 days. Any suggestions on what I could do to help convert back. Do you think it can still be possible that I revert? I’m on 1.25mg Bisoprolol and apixaban. My dosage of Bisoprolol had to be reduced almost 2 years ago

Ablation No.3
First post on here but would just like to hear any thoughts from fellow sufferers! Have had 2 ablations for AF-first one lasted 4 years-second one lasted 2 1/2 years until June 2019. Then suddenly developed very fast pulse rate ending up in A&E where they reduced it by administering 2.5 Bisoprolol.

Hopefully the next week will tell..!
Hi all, appointment went well, ECG proved what I already knew. Two things, still in Sinus Rhythm & low pulse, but Blood pressure good at 134/62. So dropping my Bisoprolol down to 2.5mg for the coming week with another appointment due for next Wednesday. Can't argue with that.

I think I had a visit from my butterflies
Hi guys and gals, Well, don't often write updates 'cos there has been nothing to update. Until now or rather late yesterday afternoon when I had a heart 'n head issue. Felt odd stuff in my chest like my butterflies were back locked in dog fights all over the place. Hard work breathing normally.

Bisoprolol tablets
Good Morning All, my heart decided to have a flip yesterday after 12 months free. It is more ectopic beats now than AF. Pulse seems to be faint ever other one. Instead of a strong pulse that you can feel. I was cut down from 10mg to now on 5 mg in January. Does anyone just take extra bisoprolol without

Echocardiogram and AF
Just over a week ago I had an echocardiogram. At the commencement of the test the sonographer commented that the heart was in sinus rhythm. On ringing the surgery this morning for the result, however, I was told that “Possible atrial fibrillation “ had been written at the top of the report. The doctors

Wondering ...
My last afib attack was approximately seven months ago. I feel exceedingly fit and strong. I had a cardio version and was put on a blood thinner. Eliquis. I feel as though my afib has gone bye bye. Query. Is it possible that blood thinners somewhat PREVENT afib? Or is it possible that a cardio

Is this Afib?
I was diagnosed with Afib 4 years ago and needed cardioversion. I have had a few weird symptoms since then but nothing that needed intervention. Now, almost everyday i feel my heart miss a beat and it takes my breath for that moment. Then I feel tired but my heart rate is 65 and rhythm is normal...

Permanent Afib. and anxiety
I have not been particularly prone to anxiety with Afib. but recently am being affected......usually spouse related!Typically, a small job in the house that i requested him NOT to do turned into something long winded and difficult and to which i was eventually drawn into to. This left me

Feeling fatigue and lightheaded after ablation
I had a pulmonary vein catheter ablation 6 weeks ago and all was relatively well till about week 4. For the last 2 weeks I feel fatigue and lightheaded is this expected during healing? I do not feel any afib (my watch ecg also indicate i am in NSR), my pulse is elevated and spikes if I move/walk around

Alcohol after Cardioversion
Some of you asked me to update you after my cardioversion. I stayed in NSR for five days until I drank half a bottle of wine at a belated birthday celebration. Before some of you with sharp pens tell me I was stupid I can since being diagnosed with AFib I have cut my drinking to moderate, averaging
