No more multiple PVCs after daily sauna
I am a 58 years old male. I went into cardiac arrest almost 2 years ago when I was rapid afib. I now have a pacemaker defibrilator. Thanks to my diet,rich in potassium and magnesium, I have been afib free most of the time. Though at times I still had multiple PVC's, bigeminy usually at lunch time.

Ablation update and reassurances.
Had an ablation Dec.30. Afib episodes Jan. 2-5. I felt worse than ever before but Doc said to take 200mgs amiodarone on the 5th and would schedule a cardioversion if I didn't go back into NSR in next couple days. Well, lo and behold, went into NSR on the 6th and been afib free since. I have a follow

New study just out (3/31/23) on natural therapies for tau aggregation (PSP included)
My father was recently diagnosed with PSP and I have been researching like crazy. I searched all 125 clinical trials on the Government website and all the pubmed articles and studies. This one just came out 3/31/23! It looked at all the studies that have been done on natural supplements, foods, therapies

Next treatment options available for advancing disease
I have completed all scans available to me and they show new metastatic disease throughout my skeleton. PSA @ 4.65 ug/L. The disease continues to advance while being treated with Zoladex and abiraterone. I have switched prednisone for dexamethasone and haven't had an updated blood test yet to see if

Going in For Second Ablation
Hi folks! I had my first ablation over four years ago, at Texas Cardiac Arrythmia with Dr. Andrea Natale. I wasn't able to come off my medication after, but the meds then worked to control my afib and numerous PVCs where it didn't pre-ablation. During these four years I had been taking 50 mg of Flecainide

Hi, I am 5 1/2 years in remission for twice recurrent endometrial cancer. Currently, I am taking Ibrance and anastrazole, a MBC regimen because my cancer is more like mbc. Most of the research is on breast cancer, and now ovarian cancer. The medications and protocols trickle down to endometrial/uterine

Update
Hola Gents, I have not posted in a while. MO started me on Zytiga; I was off that after 2 weeks. Mid-January I got a UTI. Took a vacay to Aruba. The day I finished antibiotics for the UTI, I tested positive for Covid. Spent 5 days in my hotel room. Just glad I had an ocean view room and a balcony.

stay positive….
Hi everyone. After having A.Fib for almost two years I had a cardioversion done on the 15 Dec last supported by six months on Amiodarone. My heart rate is now in Normal Sinus Rhythm and so far all's good. Had the Bisoprolol reduced from 3.75 twice a day to 1.25 twice a day and feel a lot more comfortable

3 Years After Stage IV Diagnosis
It was three years ago today that my wonderful, sweet husband was diagnosed with Stage IV prostate cancer. I can still remember the shock when we heard the news. We thought his diagnosis meant he would die soon. We didn't know at the time that if you respond well to treatment you can live years with

Travelling with Afib
Hello all. I've had 3 episodes of paroxysmal afib, each time reverting back to sinus rythym in a few hours. I've had a normal 24hr monitor and echocardiogram, but I do have pre-existing CAD with 5 stents. Since the 1st episode I've taken edoxoban and my bisoprolol has been increased from 5mg to 6.25mg

Oligometastatic prostate cancer: Reality or figment of imagination?
New paper below, [1] full text. Oligometastatic PCa has been controversial from the start, with some denying that it exists. "If you have one met, you have many - you just can't see them." Then there is the counting problem. One study indicated that a few spinal mets visible on a bone scan were oligometastatic

Statins
I just finished watching - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MSNUjQt0u0 I find it fascinating that doctors are aware that statins don't work on dialysis patients, even the KDIGO guidelines say not to prescribe them, and yet doctors still will go ahead and lower LDL using statins. I know I am on one .
