Update on post ablation - day 6
Hi. Well after posting such a positive message to try to cheer up anyone waiting for their first ablation, I came back down to earth with a bump. I felt so well on Wednesday (ablation on Tuesday) that I did everything I felt like doing but at about 01.30, I got a full-blown AF episode which I wasn't

What’s after Lu-177 in Vancouver, BC?
Hi there, I’m located in Vancouver, BC 🇨🇦. My dad is on a clinical trial and after over a decade with this disease he has failed Zytiga, Xtandi, docetaxel, and is now on his 4/6 Lu-177 infusion. He’s castration-resistant and metastatic. PSA decreased considerably after the first Lu-177 infusion but

hi my husband has paroxysmal a fib last 4 years. Doesn’t know when he has them thankfully. Takes digoxin and Rivaoxaban. He was given a dual lead pacemaker in January as his bpm kept going below 50. He fell and broke his nose due to this. He had another fall a few weeks after and hit his head.,pacemaker

Just wondering if there any UK CLLers that have started a clinical trial involving Epcoritamab and if so, how are they getting on with it?

Newly diagnosed and don't know what to do.
My A Fib began with a mild, pulsating feeling in my throat and it promoted me to take a manual pulse reading. It was then that I noticed my heart skipped every 6th beat or so, then it stopped in less than a minute. My bpm was not more the 70.Since then, I have had an ECG and I was stunned when they said

"AF Duration? Another big story from 2023"
Hi, everyone... it's still the Christmas season for me! but news about AF is always on my radar, so here's something I just noticed.
