Hi all wow I had a bad night last night and nearly phoned an ambulance as my heart rate peeked to just over 200bpm. I felt so ill and was dripping with sweat. It’s one of the worst episodes I have had. I know these are to be expected. I’m still in AFIB so resting today

Hello to you,

I would still get that recorded onto your notes so phone your Drs tomorrow.

Well I was just thinking about you and wondering how you were getting on, shame its not great news.

Hopefully it will balance out again soon for you.

Take care

I tried to send a download last night from my machine but it didn’t work. So annoying. I will phone my cardiac nurse tomorrow and let her know xx

I just replied to one of your other posts, the one that shows 200 is not BPM it’s HRV (heart rate variability), just in case you don’t realise.

Hi Tori, sorry you feel so bad again. Have you thought about ringing 111 for advice, they will call an ambulance if they think you need it. Sending love & hugs xxxxxx

Hello :-)

It has been a while since I have seen you post and sorry you are not doing so good at the moment

As others have said rest and if you are not sure phone 111 for advice

I really do hope you feel better soon and let us know how you are doing :-) x

So sorry you are having these episodes, Tori. It must be very unsettling for you. Scary, too, I'm sure. Always ring 111 for advice if you can't get hold of a GP. These things tend to happen at the weekend or out-of-hours, don't they. Hopefully your week will improve, and you will have something to look forward to at the weekend.🙂
