Acceptance of Permanent AF
Hi everyone Well I have now had to accept that we have exhausted all treatment and I am now in permanent AF. My rate is still high, 100 at rest and 130 on movement for 7 weeks now. I started Digoxin and stopped Flec last Friday and seems to be working slowly, aiming to 70/80 bpm at rest. If this

Millions invited to take part in UK scheme to diagnose diseases earlier
I'm posting this for information - not to promote the project. As I see it, each of us has to decide for ourselves. But if you don't know it exists, you don't have that choice. There is a Guardian article and the project's own website. [i]

Triple Bypass surgery
Hi everyone after being informed back in July that I have severe multi vessel coronary artery disease I was informed yesterday that I need a triple heart bypass. I don’t mind admitting that this terrifies me and thought hearing from others in the same situation may help. I have also been diagnosed with

Pace and Ablate
Hello. Im Katherine and was diagnosed with PAfib 7 years ago. Ive had 2 Ablations. The first was aborted half way through due to a suspected bleed and the second was hailed a success. However it wasn't long before the afib returned. I also had tachycardia and ectopic beats. Medication didn't help

As you lovely people were so kind reassuring and helpful during my recent meltdown, I thought I’d let you know what happened today. I had an echo and then an ecg after which I was seen by a very nice cardiologist for results. The high BNP is due to persistent AF, my heart remarkably in good shape with

One month post AV node ablation
It is almost a month since my AV node ablation and the swelling and shortness of breath have subsided. My pacemaker is currently set to rate response with a range of 80-130. I recently started riding my bike again taking it slow for now until I build my stamina back up. I am feeling much better and except

Atrial Flutter and AFib
Hello, Briefly I've had multiple Aortic/Mitral valve surgeries, with the second in 2013 I acquired Complete Heart Block, Permanent AF, Shunt, and my Pacemaker. I'm probably lucky that I've been reasonably stable over the years, other than every now and again having the PM settings altered. On Warfarin

Angiogram-who is to blame?
I was due to have an angiogram last Thursday but because I hadn't paused Apixaban for 3 days before I couldn't have it. The consultant who was to have conducted the procedure met me and simply said "these things happen" but we then had one of the most disagreeable consultations I have ever had afterwards

Update on shoulder surgery
A few weeks ago when I posted that I was having a difficult time with my PMR journey many of you replied with positive thoughts and support. That helped me so much. I mentioned at the time that I was awaiting shoulder surgery and some of you asked me to let you know how I got on. I had the surgery

Awaiting diagnosis of Heart Failure
My husband had a Mitral and Tricuspid Valve repair in June 2020, however his AF could not be treated as it had been happening for too long (they discovered the valve problems because AF was found on an ECG some 18 months prior to the operation). He has been struggling with his breathing for some months
