Postural AFIB
Hello there! I was wondering if any of you have ever had episodes of fibrillation and/or skipped heartbeat in certain positions. I noticed that I did when I leaned forward severely or crossed my legs and turned my head to the left. Also, I noticed the same phenomenon when my belly is bloated. Julien

Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears ............ not literally as that could get rather messy. I'm sure that you have all missed me, like a verruca. Apologies for my absence but its been an eventful few weeks, to say the least. On my last post a few weeks ago, I mentioned that I was a bit

Ablation for a 78 yom
I am a 78 Tom. Healthy other than cardio issues of afib. In 2017 I had an ablation which worked for two years. Then sporadic AF for a year. This year (2021) AF back with pulse rate of 162. The controlling med, Amiodarone was prescribed for six months. With the AF I had premature ventricular contractions

Starving the bacterium that causes pneumonia
The invitations, decorations, candles and the cake – there’s a lot to remember when you organise a birthday party for a five-year-old. One thing we thankfully take for granted in Australia is that our five-year-olds reach this milestone at all. But close to half a million children infected worldwide

Tuberculosis is the forgotten pandemic relying on a 100-year-old vaccine.
By some estimates, 2 billion people are now infected worldwide, and in 2019, around 1.4 million people died from it. It’s a pandemic infection, spread through the air — but it’s not COVID. It’s tuberculosis (or TB). Yet we’re not in lockdown for it. And we’re not queuing up for a vaccine. Some people

Sparatic bp and hb
Crazy blood pressure and sparatic heartbeat from 60 to 110. Blood pressure at 84/62 sometimes as well as afib sometimes. It seems my problems are coming back somewhat after 3 ablations and a period of 3 yrs of very mild afib recently Although my bp has been usually at 122/78 most times. The bp is worrisome

Past VM and the COVID Vaccine
Has anyone with a past history of VM taken the COVID-19 Vaccine? And If so how did you feel afterwards? And what brand did you take? My son had viral meningitis four years ago and is concerned that the vaccine will trigger a a viral meningitis attack. With this new Delta variant I am much more concerned

Syphilis
I have been tested for after only receiving oral. I took an instant syphilis test with 99.5% accuracy. And was negative. About 8 months later I developed a very itchy scrotum without a rash. It has contributed to itch on and off for about 8 months. I also have a burning sensation when I urinate. I have

I put up a link on anticoagulants that I found on the Medscape site. It is a really good one; actually one that doctors complete for education credits. Each of us can do it too and the information is really an eye opener. It makes one understand just how varied a doctor's advice can be. This information

Swelling and cold to the touch
I found out today that the doctor I saw wrote in the record of attendance that I have an
Arterial
embolism/
thrombosis
in my foot and that I need to see a vascular surgeon urgently. I was not told about any of this and I have had no follow up appointment just to go back to my GP.

Losing hope after ablation and afib episodes
Hey guys, here I am again worrying. My boyfriends ablation was almost 8 weeks ago and for the first two to three weeks there was no afib at all. In the weeks after though, episodes of afib (though with a lower heart rate than before) occurred very regularly. And now we are almost back to what it was

Septic Shock, 2.5 months in ICU...update
Hello everyone. I posted a few months ago about my father who went into septic shock in November. He was on a vent for several weeks before having a trach placed. For a while, he was having a hard time weaning off the vent/trach and the hospital staff started preparing me for the possibility of my dad

Diet and Afib
I’m reading a lot about the benefits of a plant based, low sugar diet on Afib. I’m not overweight but I’ll admit my 5 a day has only been a pipe dream most days. Since I was diagnosed a fortnight ago, I’ve cut out all sugar, all caffeine and any artificial sweeteners. Anything with an E number has gone
