What constitutes low heart rate?
Recently prescribed bisoprolol 1.25, consultant did say if HR drops to low I should stop taking it. HR is 34/35 when I'm asleep. Should I be concerned about this? HR seems to be okay during the day but difficult to establish because it fluctuates because I have been in constant AFib for two days now

My uncertain heart
After an hour of sitting and reading the paper online this morning, I noticed sensations in my chest similar to those that have previously indicated AF. My Wellue told me I was in sinus but the rhythm was irregular and there were PACs and PVCs. I have often noticed that PACs and PVCs in the mornings

EP consult
The cardiologist I see is not able to provide medical management of my paroxysmal afib due to my low heart rate and low blood pressure (can't risk pushing either value lower), so I am hoping for an ablation. This morning, due to a cancellation, I was able to bring my initial EP consult forward by 1

Parkinson's wife
My husband was diagnosed about 4 years ago though I suspect Parkinsons was developing long before that. Main problem - neither Sinemet or Madopar has any effect on bradykinesia or tremor (let alone the non motor symptoms)and increasing medication e.g. Neupro patch = rotigotine dopamine agonist only

clotting whilst on warfarin for clots in lungs.
I’ve been trying to find out why I’ve had breathlessness for 3 years. In 2021 NHS pulmonary consultant arranged Ct scan abd lung function tests. Lung function tests results said good. Ct scan revealed very mild dry bronchiectasis and very mild emphysema - both too mild to be classed as COPD. Was discharged

PBC - liver transplant donors and blood group questions
Hi - I either read on this website or the PBC Facebook site in the last couple of weeks - referring to if potentially one day a liver transplant is needed, that being a specific blood group type can limit the number of potential donors you may have? I am the blood group Rhesus Negative and wondered

Elevated LDH
Hello, I haven’t posted before. My 44-year-old husband was diagnosed 2 years ago. He has been in watch and wait. We just met with his oncologist. His other blood counts are relatively stable, just increasing at a low rate. But his LDH has steadily increased the last 3 tests and is elevated. His oncologist

Treatment Update IMRT with ADT 18 months later
Follow up 18 months later. I am due for another ADT injection in December. Spoke to the Urologist and he feels 18months is enough keeping with the European standard while the Oncologist would like me to stay the course and do the full 2 years. I am in favor of 18 months also, that would be nice. Still

Vacation from Lupron/Zytiga - Temporary or Permanent!
I have been on ADT (Lupron/Zytiga) for 2.5 years. PSA and testosterone immeasurable currently. Looking to go on "vacation" from meds. History: Gleason 8/9 with a PSA of only 1.89 (on Finasteride). CT/Bone scan did not show any definite metastasis. PSMA PET showed "possible" metastasis in 4 spots

home from cardioversion
so I had my 2nd cardioversion today, first one lasted over 2 years……so hopefully this one will last a fair while too. Only took one zap and I was back in sinus rhythm. This time I’ve been told to continue my bisoprolol but last time I wasn’t on them at all. Hopefully this wil keep me in sync until I
