Fluttering heart

Last night I had an episode that scared the crap out of me. We have assigned parking and sometimes there is no extra parking so one of my family members have

Irregular palpitations
Hi all. I've recently been diagnosed with PAF after 2 years. I'm on 1.25mg bisoprotol and apixaban. I had a telephone appt with cardiologist and getting a novacor monitor fitted for 7 days to monitor my heart. Also waiting for echocardiogram. Since being on medication my HR hasn't gone above 100. However

Arthritis or hyper mobility?
Hi, I’m new to this and to be honest I’m not even sure if I’m in the right place but here goes. A little bit of background, I used to do a lot of judo when I was in my early 20’s and I used to work in a shop, lugging in deliveries etc. Did this for a lot of years and then got a second job in a Post

Heart Issues but otherwise healthy
Hi all, I live in the Panhandle of Florida. I am fairly active even though I have an artificial heart valve and a pacemaker. I try to stay healthy by eating the right foods and limiting vitamin K to keep my INR stable but every now and then, I have a question about diet and INR results.

Edoxaban switch
I have just had a phone call from the pharmacist at my GP surgery. Because recent blood test indicated that my kidneys are not functioning well, he is suggesting that I change from Apixaban to Edoxaban 30mg as this will ensure that there will not be an excess of anticoagulant in my body which could

It’s been seven hours and 49 days...
Been tough 7 weeks since calf injury with physio treatment and losing much of my hard earned fitness, more importantly slowing my recovery from heart surgery which was a key motivational factor for me doing this... This weekend picked myself up, dusted off trainers unsure on fitness levels tentatively

Apixaban versus clopidogrel
Prior to PAF diagnosis I was taking clopidogrel, after diagnosis this was switched to apixaban. On clopidogrel I bled more when cut and bruised much more than on apixaban, is this due to apixaban working I a different way. Just wondered if the apixaban was effective in my case.

QRS
I have had a reading on my Kardia of sinus rhythm with wide QRS I was in AF and the subsequent readings confirms AF I gave me quite a scare. Should I be worried?

Sinus arrhythmia found but is this really what I am feeling?
Hello, this may seem like an odd question, but please allow me to explain. For a couple of years now, since my hashimoto's (thyroid disease) diagnosis, I have been complaining of feeling palpitations or missed beats, skipped beats etc. I have had numerous ecg's and been in the ER on a couple of occasions

Mechanical Valve - Ticking Noise
I'm new here and I have been recommended to have open heart surgery to replace my aortic valve with a mechanical valve. One of my concerns is the "ticking" or "thumping" noise. I was wondering if anyone has had the mechanical valve replacement surgery and have they experienced the noise? If so, how

For cholesterol blood test or Calcium Score?
Please read this true interesting story. NHS still not doing Calcium score, private test can cost up to £ 150.00 pounds!
