Kardia EKG - the answer to my worries over my palpitations and heart racing!
My latest rabbit hole has been the fear and worry over palpitations, racing heart, flutters etc. My worry grows when I read similar questions on this forum, I know so many people have palpitations… and some actually have heart issues, some probably do not , and then there’s others like me - scared with

understanding what's going on
I've had a mild arrhythmia for years, and now it's much more frequent, so I'm trying to understand what's happening and if I need to take any action. I've been to my GP to talk about it a couple of times over the past 2 years and had an ECG on each occasion, but entirely predictably, the symptom was

new medical conditions from ER visit
went to the ER 2 weeks ago for panic and anxiety and horrible intrusive thoughts. Was thinking I need to be admitted to the psych ward if needed. Second ER visit this year for this. This visit was better because the nurses and doctors actually cared. Got EKG done and found an arrhythmia in my heart.

Flecainide before Cardioversion
My EP's plan was to have me start on Flecainide and then have Cardioversion in hopes that my heart would keep rhythm. EP changed his mind because my INR was below threshold and told me to not take it until AFTER the CV in case the med converted my heart. I was instructed to have an ECG done 2 days

Thankyou
Thankyou to everyone for all the replies to my previous post. I have felt anxious because of being newly diagnosed and new to the meds so the replies have helped me greatly. I've still got an echo to come and 48hr ecg and I have the date for the ecg now. Thankyou once again.

waiting for an MRI
Hi. I am new here so not 100% sure how this works. I’m just getting anxious at the moment and wondered if this was normal to feel like this. It came to light at the end of January that I had a slight heart attack. I thought it was a panic attack but have been told that it has slightly damaged my heart

iwatch setting - AF history or AF alert?
Prior to my ablation last October I had persistent Afib. Since then I have been in NSR. I have kept my iwatch monitor set to record “AF history” and it has consistently shown AF load to be 2% or under on the weekly notifications. Should I stay on this setting or should I now set it to show alerts the

I NEVER LEARN
Hello everyone, It's 5:44 AM in California and the paramedics have just left. I called them as while lying in bed I felt nauseous, and stomach felt odd so I put my oximeter on my finger and watched it go down to 29 and then back up to baseline HR for me of 50 and it really freaked me out but I tried

1 1/2yrs of treatment and I’m getting worse again.
Need advice. I’m concerned. I was diagnosed with PA (lack IF via blood test) a year and a half ago. I have been on daily Hydroxo injections since. I started at a high concentrated dose (I’m in US) of 5,000mcg day and dosed it down to 1,750mcg day. I maintained this dose for 6 plus months and still

Echo results and beside myself with worry...
Hi all, I'm new to the forum. I'm 49 years old, eat healthily, exercise often and in half decent shape.(for my age) In Jan '24 my wife had her head on my chest and commented that my heart sounded weird! Went to GP who diagnosed a heart murmur and sent me for Electrocardiogram, which came back normal

Sometimes the solution is simple !
Getting through the winter isn’t isn’t easy, is it friends ? This one was a long one and once the spring is on its way my energy levels, enthusiasm and motivation get going and life opens up again. It didn’t happen this year though. Asthma COPD for 21 years….was it all getting to the body ? No energy

Post ablation concerns part 2
Hi everyone - last weekend I posted that 10 days after my PFA I went back into AF. Sadly I am still there & now pretty terrified it has completely failed. The hospital did an ECG on Monday then called on Wednesday to say for me to restart the Amiodorone which was stopped after the ablation & they would

thoracic aortic dilation
I was diagnosed with a ‘borderline ‘ dilation of 3.5cm earlier this year having had an echocardiogram because of heart fluttering symptoms. I also await the results of a 72hr ECG. As things stand, a consultant has written to me and requested I repeat the echo after 3 years. Has anyone else experienced
