Hi all, going into week 6, so far so good but had nuts last night that had glucose syrup on as they were honey flavoured, big mistake, made my heart go funny, ok so far today. I didn’t know glucose syrup was liquid sweetener. Anyway I’m hoping it all stays settled . Hope everyone is doing good 😊.

That would do it!

Hi, I didn’t know liquid sweetener existed 😊.

Glucose is sweet. Syrup is a thick liquid.

Even sounds horrible. Is fast HR classed as AFIB . I’m at 138 bpm so far , just taken extra bisoprolol, I’m hoping this lowers it. Do you think this is just my heart settling down or is it a sign of it not working. I have been stressed the last 3 days so I guess it has not helped.

Still early days. AF is often fast but fast is not always AF. Be patient, take it easy and watch your diet. Stay well hydrated too.

Thank you, I will.

Oh dear - avoid in future! Hope all goes well for you from now on.

Yes I hope so too, my heart feeling a bit flippy still and I feel a bit dizzy but I’ve done really well up until now.

Not a good move at night, as the cumulative effect of digesting nuts with the sweetener is pushing your luck.

Hi, well I had salted cashew and they were ok but because I didn’t have my glasses on 😂 I couldn’t read the ingredients list.
