AF & AV node ablation confusion
Hi,So I have had pace n ablate, pacemaker dependent also have HF. Does anyone know if you can still be in AF after AV node ablation and pacemaker dependent? I was informed by a doctor after a recent visit to A&E that due to AV node ablation and being dependent on a pacemaker that AF shouldn't occur

brain injury
Hi, I got hammered in the back of the skull 2.5 years ago and have had constant migraines since… been on everything from Botox, Aimigov, nerve blocks, but I have still got them … struggle with low energy, low mood.. I did get migraines before the accident.. but they were episodic… I can’t work or socialise

Bisoprolol
Fatigued and VO2 level is very low. Could Bisoprolol be the cause and is it safe to come off it if it is. I take 1.25mg daily for Tachycardia.

Post Second Ablation help pls
HiBeen a while since I posted. AF episodes continued so was placed on waiting list for 2nd Ablation procedure which I had yesterday. I have been told all went well but post op notes are unclear so wondering if anyone can help understand it. Notes say: LA was small but had low voltage in it. Inducing

2 lead pacemaker to CRT PM
HiHad a 2 lead PM fitted 21 months ago following AV node ablation and since then I have developed heart failure and AF. Had three visits to heart failure clinic and been prescribed ramipril, bisoprolol and dapagliflozin. Cardiologist has stated a short term therapy of amiodarone may help get me back

Changing from Adoxaban to Apixaban … what to expect?
Good morning forum. While waiting for a second cardioversion the medics have decided to change my anticoagulant from Adoxaban to Apixaban (the low dose Adoxaban I was on until this morning could be a bit borderline if I put on just a pound or two weight). A bit fed up as this delays the cardioversion

Ahhhh well, I guess it could be worse!
A while back, I was seen by a lady at the pain clinic, who said that I have ‘Scoliosis convex to the right with minor anterior vertebral body height loss at T12, L3 and L4. Disc space narrowing at the lumbosacral level with hypertrophy of the lower lumbar facet joints’. The pain is really intense,

CRT-P
I am due to have a CRT-P implant and an AV node ablation. If others out there have had this I would like to know what is what like and did it improve their quality of life. It is so difficult to ask the professionals question, so left feeling very nervous about these procedures.. All the posts are

Side Effects from Metoprolol 25mg
I am taking Metoprolol 25mg halved twice a day for AFib and having side effects of almost passing out or a weird feeling of like I would be passing out which has happened twice now. I'm taking it with Eliquis. Is anyone else having this symptom?

Cognitive skills
I had open heart surgery over four months ago. Straight after the surgery I felt fine and could hold a conversation with people. The week after (once home) I felt I was present in the room but struggled to communicate. I would have the conversation mapped out in my head along with what I wanted to

How long does it take!
Hey, please could anyone tell me their experiences of recovery after quadrupal heart bypass. I had this done in February, complications and infections took me back into hospital again after three weeks from being discharged. The infection was in my chest wound, I spent another three weeks in hospital

Worried about brother still in hospital after heart surgery
Hello, I am posting because my brother is in hospital after a heart bypass and I am worried. He has a very sharp brain but seems to be finding it hard to express himself. He was due home this weekend but has a cough and fluid on the lung plus a partially deflated lung. He was on Amiodarone medication

Which medicine is messing with my thyroid med uptake
Might anyone be able to suggest which of my other meds has affected my thyroid med uptake (100mcg thyroxine and 2x5mcg t3)? I was prescribed digoxin, furosemide and bisoprolol after having open heart surgery 3 mths ago to resolve some anatomical defects. Uptil that point thyroid levels were stable
