Flecainide for chemical version
Persistent AF for over two years punctuated by NSR for 8mths after first cardioversion but only 2 weeks after second. Now on digoxin & sotalol which controls the rate well but limits activities. Clinic suggest trying Flecainide to see if it will chemically induce NSR. Any experiences with this approach

Stopping Flecainide
Had cryo ablation in 2014 and over the past couple years started getting occasional afib episodes esp after exertion. Cardiologist put me on flec, 50 mg bid, which reduced the episodes. Also was advised to use 100 mg as pip in event of breakthroughs.About a year ago the episodes increased and was told

Could you connect your beginning first AF episode?
When I was first diagnosed in the hospital emerg with atrial flutter/fibrillation my heart that day had instantly started being around 140 bpm (brought down with IV medication). I was referred to a cardiologist. I’m 67 years old and after months of heart tests and blood tests everything was normal,

Keynote 365 Trial
Hey fellas, Seeing my MO tomorrow about enrolling in the Keynote 365 clinical trial with Keytruda in combination with another drug. Has anybody had any experience with Keytruda? Did it work for you? SE’s? I’m 17 years into this journey, castrate resistant, failed Xtandi, and recently failed Docetaxel

Questions for those currently on or have tried Olaparib or Rucaparib PARP inhibitors. Recently published study on Rucaparib.
For those of you who have tried or are on PARP inhibitors, which one did you use and at what point did you use them? Was it before chemo or after chemo? Did insurance cover the cost? Looking at the NCCN guidelines, which my husband's MO refers to often, they suggest Olaparib (Lynparrza) before chemo

Long Journey
Hey Guys, I don’t post on here often and I’m afraid this will be a long post. I have had PCa over 18 years. Started with casodex, Lupron. A few months later, brachytherapy then 42 sessions of EBRT. Over the years PSA would rise, and I would be put on Lupron for 18-24 months. In 2017, PSA started rising

Hip Replacement while on treatment??
My husband, who is in a Clinical Trial at MDA for Richter's, needs a hip replacement badly - such that his severe arthritis is a bigger deal to his quality of life than the Richter's. He saw an orthopedic pain management specialist last week who had nothing to offer, stating that a steroid injection

Could I stop taking Rivaoxaban?
I’ve been on Flecainide, Bisoprolol and Rivaoxaban now for 5 years and have a pacemaker, my heart is in sinus rhythm at 60bpm. I understand that Rivaoxaban is to help prevent blood clots forming, but as my AF is now managed could I stop taking it? I get frequent gum bleeds despite excellent oral hygiene

question for you ectopic sufferers.?
hi you lovely people. I have a question maybe someone can shed light on.?? Iv had ectopic beats on and off for about 30+ years. But somedays they are more powerful and noticeable than other days. and so for me they are not as mentally draining as other days especially when they’re weak. But when

Half dose of Eliquis
I am 69 yrs old with low heart disease risk and have had diagnosed afib for three years. I believe I was suffering with it for 2-3 years prior but did not address it until I got the classic symptoms of fatigue, dizziness, out of breath, and vision problems. My doc ran numerous tests on my heart that

Still preclinical so don't get too excited: Lu-177 Lu-lbu-DAB-PSMA works better than Lu-177-PSMA-617
From Sweden with love...and hopefully with a clinical trial soon "The data of this study demonstrated a significant therapeutic advantage of [Lu-177]Lu-Ibu-DAB-PSMA over [Lu-177]Lu-PSMA-617 and a more favorable safety profile as compared to that of [Lu-177]Lu-PSMA-ALB-56.

Insulin resistant & query about blood results
Good afternoon, Please can someone advise if my bloods are acceptable. I had to nag doctor to increase my dose from 125 to 150mg and now fear although I am starting to feel better in myself that they will reduce dose down again when I see them my blood sugars are also out of range - a clinical trial

Benefits of Sacc. Boulardii probiotic
Just wondering whether to reorder my sacc. boulardii which I bought originally to combat candida, and on googling saw it's also relevant to PD - thought I'd share for those who missed this July study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36708254/ 'Mitochondrial impairment is a hallmark feature of neurodegenerative

Another antigoagulant question
Hello. A year ago I had painless thyroiditis which sent me into Afib and I remained in Afib constantly for 5 months for which I was on bisoprolol and an anticoagulant. I was then put on an anti arrhythmia meds at the time the thyroid cleared up and was soon back in NSR. That was last March. Since then
