Experiences with

Arrhythmia

I posted previously about having 4 loose teeth . My new dentist wants to do a deep clean and root planing due to periodontal disease. I am concerned about the healing process and it causing tooth sensitivity. Any advice is welcome please?

Was wondering does anyone feel sort of lightheaded and sort of generally feeling off after a missed beat the heart episode is very fast but the strange off feeling does hang around for quite a while afterwards. All I want to do is lie down really which obviously not always possible. I do take flecainde

On my recent 6 monthly checkup with the cardiologist, I asked whether having had the leaky valve replaced did I need to keep taking blood thinners, he replied that I will have to take them indefinitely because of my ‘severe arrhythmia’ .

hello, My question is regarding Parkinson medication,is their alternatives to the normal medications like Ldopa etc which can be prescribed to patients with heart arrhythmias ,because ive read that some medications like Ldopa can cause heart arrhythmia themselves ,which i suffer with plus ive had

patients in poor health or patients with serious clinical impairment such as: • impaired gag reflex, or with a tendency to aspiration or regurgitation • impaired consciousness • severe renal insufficiency (creatinine clearance <30 mL/min) • cardiac impairment (NYHA grade III or IV) • those at risk of arrhythmia

I just left my EPS office with good news. I actually thought I was having problems with my new pacemaker but the office it is true. Dr Saini kept raising my ECG print out telling me how wonderful it is and my echo was the same. For all purposes, my heart on there looks the same as anyone with a normal

I know ventricular arrhythmia are more dangerous, and I've heard v.bigeminy is also dangerous. Is my cardiologist not bothered about it like most doctors, or do I perhaps need a 2nd opinion?

He said he was concerned with the slow and fast heartbeats and has referred me to the arrhythmia clinic at the hospital. My anxiety went up and I know I didn’t ask the questions I wanted to. I wish my hubby were with me. He is the calm one.

Anyone on Multaq for AFIB, do you also take metoprol with it! I am afraid of my heart rate getting too low with both drugs! My doctor said they go together! Any info you can will help!

I’ve had PAF for 17/18 years. Up until late last year I averaged 2-3 episodes a year and was cardioverted in hospital. Then the medics decided I shd stop going to hospital and convert on my own - or not. They knew in AF my heart rate is upto 130 particular just after an episode starts and said that was

I spoke to my arrhythmia nurse who has suggested a 48 hour monitor to see what is happening - but this will only pick up the AF not the why or how of the sudden increase or what is happening re the twinges/spasms. Any ideas?

Also have a 48 hr monitor tomorrow to check for arrhythmia. Finding it all too much to process. It's 8 weeks now and still feel in shock. Looking for some encouragement!

The scar tissue may have reduced or a new rogue pathway developed - have been referred to arrhythmia clinic. Has anyone had a similar experience or just some encouraging words they can share please?

My arrhythmia returned a couple of days ago but with a change that I haven't seen before so I wondered if anyone else has the same experience. Although the systolic measure is in the healthy range, the diastolic has risen disproportionally.

had my pacemaker in on Friday. Still in hospital with New med trial is bisoprolol, flecainide, amlodipine, xarelto. They say the flecainide is causing long p wave- I was taken off of flecainide in 2019 , but I thought it was for long qt wave. On this regiment of meds, no more spiking of heart

Endured finger prick blood sampling today, not sure if I got enough from the both lancets. I am wondering if there are better stabbers ? ... ( I do all the :get lots of water, get heart pumping, warm water. stroking finger, hand lower than heart etc. ) I have been doing monitor my health and

Other members experiences of being on Flecainide - I have been put on 50mg twice a day and for the first 2-3 weeks I was OK but was in permanent Arrhythmia and low heart beats of 53-68 then last Sunday my heart beat went up to 90+ and was like that for 36 hours before going back into normal rhythm.

This year's agenda will cover a range of arrhythmia topics such as anticoagulants, pacemakers, AF ablation and more!

I posted a couple of months ago asking for advice on alternative to Bisoprolol. After reading reviews I thought I would like to try Nebivolol. My GP wouldn’t prescribe Nebivolol ,only carvedilol, as I had an appointment with a cardiologist in 8 days I thought would ask the doctor then. During the

One last question: I have heard many times that they try to find the arrhythmia and cannot set it off when they try stimulating… Last year I had the Ablation study and I couldn’t get anything to happen.. but that was just the left side of my heart.
