Experiences with

Arrhythmia

Well following previous posts and still no results from Holter monitoring had letter from Cardiologist to say that due to misunderstanding I should be taking 100mcg of Losartan divided into two 50 in morning and 50 at night. I have only been taking 50 once a day as that’s what it looked like on the

I have both AF and HF and am on Apixaban (2×5mg), Bisoprolol (10mg) and Candestartan (4mg). Any others on this and if so, would you like to share your experience? Thanks.

Hi everyone I was diagnosed with AF in April after 4 years of episodes ( 2-7 hours long) that were never captured on ECG. I was given Flecainide 50mg pill in the pocket when I have an episode. Despite losing 10% of my body weight, avoiding big meals especially late and cutting out alcohol, I just had

My GP ,I do not trust to have anything to do with my arrhythmia, it was he who instigated the return of AF after my ablation ,telling me to stop flecanide overnight in order to take NSAIDs for back issue.

Much relieved to have confirmation from Arrythmia Nurse that they see no reason not to use Therapulse while in recovery period from a cryoablation for Atrial Fibrillation. I was unsure if vibration might somehow affect heart rhythm/ trigger irregular beat, but given green light and can still use my most

Hoping for some advice. My wife has HCM and has had an ablation a few years ago. Her Afib seemed to calm down but recently it has increased dramatically. The ablation was carried out in London and appointments were not too difficult to obtain. We now live in Gloucestershire and it seems that getting

Hello After an RF ablation in September 2022 and 14 months free of arrhythmia I am experiencing my 5th episode this year. I'm not complaining. The episodes last max 4 hours and I take PIP ( Sotolol) which is way better than every 2 days for 6 hours before.

As I mentioned a few days ago, I've been waiting to hear from the Arrhythmia clinic. It's been 3 weeks and no phone call so I called today, got a voicemail. Hopefully I hear soon. Today I don't seem to have any energy and thought I would check my HR. I was shocked to see it was 43.

I'm due to have a hip replacement but nervous because I have paroxysmal A Fib. I' m on Edoxaban and have bisoprolol as a P I P, told to take after a few hours if it didn't resolve, but haven't had to take it . Would welcome some reassurance 😊

Hi I was on bisoprolol. Told doctor short of breath. Changed to sotalol. Any advice please

hi everyone, Thought I would give an update. I had the cryo-ablation on the 13th of May. i felt fairly uncomfortable over the first few weeks, but thanks to all the support and info on here, I have got through it without panic. the main thing is pacing myself and not overdoing it. Get enough

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.

Hi all Is anyone else on Bisoprolol alongside Dronenadrone (Multaq)? The Multaq has been very successful to date at reducing my AF burden to 2% or less every week measured via Apple Watch Series 8. After a 24 hour ecg holter my cardiologist thinks that I have an arrythmia called SVT (Super Ventricula

I know many of you are in Europe, and wanted to get a different perspective on things. For the back story, I have had SVT (Atrial Tachycardia) since 2021. I had an ablation in May 2021 that was acutely successful. I had Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia for about six months after, and then had a normal

I had a pulmonary vein isolation procedure 2 years ago for paroxysmal SVT/ ectopics. Been in NSR for two years 😊. Since having Covid booster 6 weeks ago had a return of arrhythmias and SOBE. So back on Apixaban ( had some at home and GP Px some more). Over last few days no daytime arrhythmias 👍, but

Slightly confused - have only been seen by arrhythmia nurse who prescribed these.

Hi all, I’m having loads of ectopic beats since yesterday and it’s really worrying me, a month ago I reduced my Bisoprolol to 1.25, I’m wondering if it would be okay to take another 1.25 today to try to calm these ectopics. Pulse rate is staying stable and not flying too high. My OH is away so I feel

Well, I,had an ablation on May 10th for Atrial Tachycardia and it was a 'success' in that they ablated the SVT. The downside is that 1) they weren't able to ablate the left sided ectopics, and 2) I have lingering inappropriate sinus tachycardia. So now I am stuck trying different meds again to lower
