Exercise post heart bypass
hi all I'm wanting to hear your exercise achievements post heart bypass. Prior to my bypass I was extremely active down the gym teaching hiit workouts and other exercise classes. I am still only 8 weeks post op and aged under 40 but need some good news stories of people building up their exercise

My mum is going to have ICD box - please share experiences :)
Hi, Until a few weeks ago, my mum didn’t (knowingly) have any heart problems but her resting heart rate went to 174 on her Fitbit and wouldn’t go down so she went to hospital. They had to give her a shock to get her heart rate down. They did an angiogram and realised she had 3 clogged arteries

Covid and Sinus Rhythm with Supraventricular Ectopy
Hi, Since my very successful ablation in November 20 I have been in normal sinus rhythm. I have contracted Covid, and have flu like symptoms. My Kardia (Advanced Determination) now reports I have Sinus Rhythm with Supraventricular Ectopy. I know that Covid can induce heart arrythmias, is this something

AF, ablation and odd heart rhythms
I had an ablation for AF in Dec. Since the procedure I have only experienced one short 3 min run of AF, but my heart has been very unsettled over the last five months. Recently, I've been suffering bouts of tachycardia (140 BPM for a minute or two is about as bad as it gets) at night, which are manageable

Recovery post heart bypass.
My Grandad had a heart attack about 5 weeks ago, and subsequently was hospitalised. He then had a heart bypass just over two weeks ago, and thankfully he is now back at home. Since he came home he has struggled to sleep and has told my family and I that he is very dizzy, sick and tired. I can understand

Right Sided Pacemaker
I had a pacemaker inserted last year for sick sinus syndrome. Unfortunately it got infected and had to be removed. I found the whole thing very traumatic. Unfortunately had a four hour episode of low heart rate the other evening so might have to reconsider having another fitted which of course would

Pace and Ablate - Symptoms of Heart Failure after pacemaker and AV node ablation
My pacemaker was inserted three weeks ago for symptomatic persistent a-fib that no longer responds to meds, cardioversion, or ablation. I had to wait for the AVN ablation since I am sensitive to silicone and the pacemaker parts are coated with it. I haven't had any rejection symptoms therefore my AV

Pudendal Neuralgia Question
I've had pelvic floor physio and a nerve block injection and I still have very severe chronic pudendal neuralgia pain. My review after the nerve block isn't for 6 weeks so has anybody got any info out there on avenues that I might be able to explore to get rid of this awful pain.
