Popped to GP, result as expected.
I had a mixed weekend, I managed to get out both days to do things which was great BUT both days I suffered a lot of thumps/jolts/skips which restricted my mobility doing those things quite a bit. I've had this now 13 weeks to varying degrees but recently it's worsened again which is frustrating. I saw

Worried about palpitations/cardiomyopathy
I have had palpitations for years and years , since I was about 12 years old. I have also had an anxiety disorder for around the same length of time (OCD and generalised anxiety). I have a lot of ECGs and a 24 hr recording taken, the 24 hr one showed some PVCs and PACs but nothing to be concerned over

Hybrid ablation part 2
I am part of a clinical trial to judge the outcomes of a mini maze procedure followed by a catheter ablation compared to two catheter ablations. I had been in persistent AF since Feb 2016, give or take a few weeks after cardioversion. I had the mini maze on April 6th. Since then I have been predominantly

Normal concern or unnecessary worry?
For many years I had occasional bouts of PVCs, then during a time of great stress I was diagnosed with paroxysmal AF, but it wasn't until a year ago that I was given Flecainide twice a day, Metoprolol and Xarelto. Recently wore a 2-week Zio Patch monitor to give the cardiologist a clearer idea of how

Just joined... hi
I've been diagnosed with HS for 24 years and had no treatment for 15 years and wondered how things have come on and what treatment is available now for people? I had the UV light therapy , long term anti biotics, was on a medication I think was called Roacutane and nothing worked so I gave up going back

Had cardiology appointment today, no real progress!
My irregular and now pretty painful heart beats are still increasing so much so I ended up in A&E this week but the result of that was nil, except being checked out for immediate danger. However I did manage to get a cardiologist appointment for today which wasn't entirely fruitless but also didn't resolve

Recognising the effect of anxiety within AF
Reading Richard75's recent post titled [i]"Light at the end of the AF tunnel - a success story"[/i] has really opened my mind about the role of anxiety within AF. Prior to my AF, I was lucky to have never suffered from anxiety, stress or depression. And so my latest theory is that all of the worry I

verapamil
Has anyone been given verapamil to use as a pill in the pocket to either stop tachycardia or stop pvc's ? I was at the ER a couple of days ago with tachycardia that lasted almost four hours. 100ml of Flecainide didn't stop it so they did a chemical cardioversion and it stopped it straight away. I'm always

Had a really rough couple of days. Anyone know what this tingling in my arms and fingers is all about?
This thing is hitting me way harder than I expected. I haven't been in AF for 6 days, but the last 3 days I've been getting lightheaded and tingling down my arms and into my little fingers (normally after I've been on my feet for 20 minutes). Some hours later I get hit by a powerful head rush. Not enough

Dizziness feeling when in NSR?
It has now happened to me on 3 occasions. Just wondering if anyone recognises these symptoms as being associated with AF, or should I be looking elsewhere? Just an hour ago I was sitting in my car when I felt a strong head rush / dizziness coming on. My head feels kind of fizzy and fuzzy inside. My

First visit to the cardiologist
I wasn't in there long. The summary of my consultation as follows: He recommends ablation, given that I have a low resting HR and wish to return to sport. I am being referred to an EP to take this further. (I don't relish heart surgery at age 38, but, I feel content that they are going straight for

7 weeks, mixed health still
So I started Cardiac Rehab last Friday and had my second session this Tuesday. So far because of my health prior to the bypass not being great I have found it tiring for sure. I've also ended up with muscle tweaks in my shoulders, neck and back along with some pains in my calf and ankle. That being said

PVC's and PAC's when not in AF - normal?
Hello again :) So, I got my ECG machine yesterday and have been trying it out quite a bit. I am mostly in NSR, occasionally I see PACs, and my latest graph shows PVCs every 2, 3 or 4 normal beats. I haven't been in constant AF for 3 weeks but have had 2 brief AF attacks in the last 2 weeks. Just wondering

5 1/2 weeks post CABG and still PVCs etc..
My most annoying post CABG issue is problems with ectopic beats/PVCs etc.. I get them everyday and not little ones you hardly notice, they are frequent and quite distracting. Sure I have soreness still in my chest which I expected since I had a double mammary artery bypass but these premature and missed

Second ablation?
Hello, new here, I am contemplating a second ablaton and have some fear of it. Had one in 2013 worked some for about a year, steadily continue to have increasing episodes. They are not near as severe as they were before the ablation, but they can still knock me down pretty hard. The anxiety sometimes

Feeling like dying every second..PVC, PAC how do you keep calm and not freak out all the time??
I have been having Pac and Pvc for the past 2 years.. had multiple 2 weeks monitors, Echocardiograms, EKGs, MRI (not completed bc of Migrane), Stress test....I don't exercise anymore because I can't get over the fear of dying of cardiac arrest. My friend, a year older than me (30) died of Sudden Cardiac

RVOT Ablation
Hello, I am scheduled to have a RVOT Ablation in a couple weeks and and wondering if anyone can share their own experience with me...the good and the bad. I'm trying to prepare myself mentally for the process and having a lot if anxiety because of it. I'm scared to have it done and maybe more scared

Any other symptoms?
Hello, I was diagnosed with ITP at 11 years old. Long story short it practically went away I just check my platlet count regularly to be sure. Since then I've had other health problems and I've always wanted to see if they could be related. I have a high amount of PVC which make my heart rate really

To call ambulance -- or not?
I notice that almost everyone indicates that they are aware when an AF episode occurs, and that there has been a lot of advice to call an ambulance when the episode is particularly rough. While only occasionally I've felt what I assume to be AF -- a sort of mild fluttering -- I'm very aware of frequent
