Digoxin low heart rate.
Hi everyone, been on Digoxin for a week or so and doc has upped my dose twice. I'm now taking 3 62.5 pills per day to find my right dose. My heart rate has gone from 130 to a low 55 so it's done the trick. My question is has anyone else had a very low heart rate on this drug. Beta blockers, tried 2 took

3 month post ablation-update
Morning, Thankyou so much to you all for your advice. I got in touch with the arrhythmia nurses at Barts. I have now been advised that they are upping my sotalol dose , however thankfully after 6 days of afib my heart has gone back into NSR overnight. Prof Schilling has now said he will do another ablation

Does anyone has enlarged liver on acalabrutinib?
I am wondering if anyone has enlarged liver on acalabrutinib. I am on acalabrutinib since September 1st. My blood tests are much improved, but I feel now more pressure on the right side than the left side. Can acalabrutinib effect liver? My spleen decreased only slightly from 21 cm to 17cm. Thanks fo

Palpitations and faster heart rate after AstraZeneca vaccine?
I have had strong palpitations and and a faster than usual heartbeat with some ectopics, since I received my first jab of the AZ vaccine. I asked the nurse about the vaccine and atrial fibrillation and she said there was no connection- I am not completely convinced however. Has anyone else had this

Try be positive!
After 3 pvi ablations over last few years and making some changes to life and making changes to how I plan things etc, I’m still glad to wake up every morning. It’s the uncertainty about the future of it that causes me anxiety and worry, will it progress.? Will it stay the same? when will my next episode

What is happening?
I have had a very strange experience. I have suffered with AF for a number of years. Usually had 1 episode every 3/4 years and always had to be electro cardio verted. Increased in frequency to the point where it was happening every few months with the last one in Mar 20 so ended up with an ablation in

Onset of Afib
I need some advice. I had a cryoabalation in July 2018. I have been in sinus rhythm since. I went to bed last night and 2 hours later woke up with a heart rate in the 180s. Spent 5 ours in the ER. Came home and 12 hours later back in sinus rhythm. Is this normal? The only thing I changed was to a Claritin

Titrating down from Amiodarone
About 2 years ago my OH was in a catch 22 situation. At 85 he was in persistent AF with aortic stenosis with an EF of 35% and quite symptomatic with deteriorating QOL. After angiogram established there were no blockages a cardioversion was arranged to see if NSR was possible and Amiodarone started

High blood pressure is a cause of Afib
Interesting study in the European Society of Cardiology confirming that high blood pressure causes atrial fibrillation: https://www.escardio.org/The-ESC/Press-Office/Press-releases/High-blood-pressure-causes-atrial-fibrillation Previous studies have only shown an association between high blood pressure

Ablation and silent A Fib
Have just read a recent thread concerning anticoagulation and bleeding risk, and one contributor stated that another risk is atrial fibrillation episodes post ablation and the need therefore for anticoagulants even when an ablation is successful. I think this decision is a matter for discussion between

Hi All, thank you for your lovely messages and PMs. Yesterday was a very, very difficult day for me since I had my first Covid jab. An opportunity my husband didn't get by a matter of days / weeks. Had my son not been with me I would have driven away. The advantage of my hysteria meant I jumped the

Afib and sleep apnea
Hi friends, I was diagnosed with afib a year ago and have had 3 afib episodes during that time. Taking Eliquis. My e.p. WNts me to see a sleep specialist to check for sleep apnea as many afibbers have it. Anyone else experience this? I am not aware I have it.

ESC: Anti-coagulation merely "to be considered" with CHA2DS2-VASc score of 1 in men or 2 in women
I am happy to see that the ESC (European Society of Cardiology), in its updated 2020 Guidelines for the treatment of AF, is continuing with its previous guideline that oral anti-coagulation is simply "[i]to be considered in patients with a CHA2DS2-VASc score of 1 in men or 2 in women, with treatment

Apple watch electrodes
A few days ago there was, in one of the discussions, the assumption that the Apple watch worked on light and the Kardia on electrodes. However, I have just found this. We live and learn. "That's where the EKG comes in. An EKG uses electrodes to measure the electrical activity of the heart. A hospital-grade

COVID and AF (some new research)
I know were all having a bad time with a mixture of AF and the worry of COVID, we've all come a long way and managed to deal with it all to a point. I am however the bearer of what seems to be bad news and think it's only right to share this even though it makes uncomfortable reading, for that I apologise
