What is the difference between palpitations, ectopic beats, PVCs, SVTs, VTs?
Good evening. I’ve noticed that there are a lot of questions around palpitations on this forum, and I too have them myself; however, not medically treated for them. Sometimes I experience these with pain (with a constriction type of feeling) and sometimes I experience them without pain. I’ve noticed

Laser emitting diodes compared to LED light therapy ?
Bryan Johnson , a regenerative medicine extremist, uses Laser emitting diodes on his head instead of our standard red light therapy. This peaked my interest. https://www.vice.com/en/article/z34ay8/bryan-johnson-blueprint-aging-biotech https://lightforcemedical.com/improved-cognitive-function-after-transcranial-light-emitting-diode-treatments-in-chronic-traumatic-brain-injury-two-case-reports

Can this be the answer to ectopic heartbeats that are worrying everybody? (And other heart issues possibly please read!)
I've just had a total hip replacement which has also put my back straight as our musculoskeletal system works on integrity as s system of course. Now....wait for it..I have not suffered ANY PVC / ectopic since the operation which was over a week ago. Please read this article...it could potentially

How to talk so my consultant will listen - advice please 🙏
Since my diagnosis, I’ve had ongoing cardiac symptoms but they seem to have grown in frequency since mid January. I have had a couple of reviews with my GP and the decision was taken to stop my dapagliflozin - fine. Additionally, my presyncope symptoms have been getting worse and it’s now been recommended

What is wrong with these drs?
Still doing great on Sotalol, so thankful for my new EP. I went to a new primary care last week, and we discussed my AF briefly. He said "why aren't you on anticoagulants?" "My EP said I don't need it at my age and with how little I get AF." He then brought it up again a short time later, "you might

Ablation success
Hi all! I was wondering if there are any long time ablation success stories out there ? I had PAF, had a 4 vessel PVI cryoablation in Mach of 2018 and am off all meds and Noacs. Besides a few episodes that last 2-5 seconds or an occassional PVC, I am doing great. Anyone else out there with a success

Has anyone had their Cardiac Recovery Rate drop, shortly after starting Nubeqa/daro or another kind of 2nd line AR?
Have any of you had your Cardiac Recovery Rate (or Heart rate recovery) drop, shortly after starting Nubeqa/daro or another kind of 2nd line AR (zytiga, xtandi, erleada etc)?Prior to starting Nubeqa, my Cardiac recovery rate was between 29-33.

PVC's anyone?...
Hi all, after OH surgery in November and a few problems with Afib after, I have been doing fine until Monday when I felt odd palpitations and felt usual light headed and out of sorts. I thought it would be AFib again but on checking on the Kardiamobile it showed as Premature Ventricular Contractions

pvc burden increasing
Dear all some advice please I had a cryo ablation three years ago and really good result. In the last few months I am having lots of ectopic beats. Makes me uncomfortable and now dizzy. 7 day monitoring days pvc’s. ECG doesn’t usually capture them. Gp write to cardiology and they said go back on Verapamil

AF or PVCS ablation
I have had a high burden of palpitations since my covid booster in September 2022. In February had 48 and 7 days Holter which both showed 11% PVCs plus bigemeny and trigemeny. My Apple Watch showed only SVT not PVCs. I had nhs appointment with EP and he advised ablation and promised to do AF and PVCS

Ectopics
I've had no Afib as such for a couple of years but do get quite a lot of ectopics which generally don't bother me apart from being a bit tired occasionally. I've read on here that a number of people have seen improvement with SVCs and PVCs after starting on flecanide. I'm reluctant to take any more meds

Re my post : Forgotten drugs and palpitations…..
I posted about having lots of SVEs and PVCs in the last couple of days, confirmed on Kardia. While I have been sat here moping - 🙄 - I have realised that a couple of weeks ago I started using my Kardia holding one of the sensors just above my knee. This is shown in the original instructions as an alternative

Forgotten drugs, as well as palpitations…..
I’ve had daily Afib episodes lately, but they have not been severe. I was thinking I would let my GP know, and then 9 days ago they stopped ( had one yesterday ) and have been replaced by PVCs and SVEs. These feel like they are all the time , although calmer in the night and I am sleeping. All this

Light Therapy for Parkinson’s Disease
I'm not using light therapy, but somebody mentioned it to me again and I found this in depth page that pulls a LOT of light therapy information together in one place: https://www.apdaparkinson.org/article/light-therapy-for-parkinsons-disease/

General Anaesthetic with 5%pvcs?
I do not have any medication and am generally very healthy. However, I have 5% pvcs and have elective surgery planned. Would these pvcs (normal echocardiogram and no cardiomyopathy) mean they could cancel my operation?

Has anybody tried Light Therapy?
I live in an area that has at most 20 days of light. After using a light therapy lamp that delivers up to 10,000 lux for a week the severe RLS symptoms are now very mild. I have also found that I no longer need to take medication at night. Hopefully the light therapy continues to work for me. I am

Joint pain remedies - Infra red light?
Nothing seems to help with the anastrozole side effect of pain in joints, ligaments, muscles. I have been reading recently about infra-red light therapy (LED phototherapy - has a bunch of names), used on skin but also on athletes for injuries of all sorts. Has anyone tried this? If so, did you get
